'What’s so strikingly weird about this whole thing isn’t that a 60-year-old banker is into playing club music. It’s that he’s very visibly making it in the scene,' writes KevinTDugan
Banker and DJ David Solomon playing in L.A. last month.
We’ve helpfully circled Solomon’s name. Illustration: Intelligencer/Lollapalooza What to make of this? Solomon has been pretty open about his night job — he’s called it a hobby — of spinning club music. Here he is playing to a crowd in the Bahamas, before he even got the job. During the pandemic, he opened for the Chainsmokers at a Hamptons event made famous by its violation of COVID protocols.
This is, at the very least, a natural way to distract from recent, less pleasant conversations that Solomon has been involved in. There’s his bank’s long and complicated history of involvement with Russia, where Solomon is pulling up the company’s stakes. Then the Goldman CEO said that it wasn’t the finance industry’s job to “ostracize Russia.” And this wasn’t some gaffe or hot-mic situation — it was in an interview he gave of his own volition. .
I have to admit that I don’t follow Solomon’s tour schedule very closely, but I’m pretty sure this is the biggest stage he’s ever hit the decks on. Either way, a bank spokesman declined to comment about the gig.
