Socrates

Socrates is a solo artist from the Northern suburbs of Chicago. Socrates began his musical career as one of the founding members of the band "Crete." With Crete, Socrates played hundreds of shows spanning from 2006 to 2012. Most notably, Crete won the Lake County Battle of the Bands in 2008 and Socrates also appeared on Johnny B in the morning to promote his contribution to the "Cub's song writing contest." After 2012, the band went their separate ways and Socrates went out on his own. Taking inspiration from the music of the 1960's and 70's, while also providing his own style, Socrates has created a new and unique sound. Armed with an acoustic guitar and smooth crisp vocals, Socrates strives to set his place in the music scene and to have his music heard and enjoyed by all.
