In the Summer of 2021, during a show at the Battery Park Bandshell, Burlington based band Be-er teamed up with Lil Sickles (she/her), a Burlington solo artist, as a back up band for a some of her songs. The collaboration worked so well they formed The So n Sos. They have a full 5 piece sound with Sickles on vocals and guitar, James Bellizia (he/him) on lead guitar, Zach Landis (he/him) on keyboards, Michael Nedell (he/him) on bass and Ian Armstrong (he/him) on drums. Seven Days named them one of the 7 Vermont bands not to miss at 2022’s Waking Windows Festival. Ranging from whiskey soaked ballads, Rockers, 80’s New Wave numbers and the occasional jazzy jam, their energy and big sound have earned them the reputation as a must see live band. They recently recorded a 3 song ep that will be available on Bandcamp soon.
