Sons of Butcher was a Canadian adult animated comedy television series based on the rock band of the same name.
After the completion of their second TV season,[4] the Sons of Butcher live act hit the road for a full 22 show East to West Canadian tour, reaching from Halifax, NS to Nanaimo, BC.
Spinning off from Sons of Butcher's tendency to play 80s covers in their live show which quickly became crowd favourites, Moonlight Desires was formed in late 2013 with the mandate of exclusively turning 80's pop songs into heavy rock tunes.
He inherited the shop from their father, Arpo Butcher, who died in an unfortunate accident involving a meat grinder.
Sol has had a few romantic interests in the series, including a woman named Sherry (whom he had literally dreamed about) and Jaco's daughter Suncheeps (whom he broke up with upon discovering she snored monstrously when she slept).
He has gone to extreme lengths to earn their affections, including stealing massive amounts of coal in the hopes of making them into diamonds, and encasing himself in a feta cheese sculpture of Aphrodite to gain Jaco's respect.
Despite owning the butcher shop, Sol has worked in a few other jobs over the series, such as a prison chef (while incarcerated), cruise ship worker, and small-time actor.
While he often considers himself to be a ladies' man, he seems to have a thing for women who are either grossly overweight or considerably older than he is, sometimes to the point of being middle aged and having one or more children (which Ricky hates) and maybe even already having a husband.
He is usually the lead singer (Doug and Sol have been known to sing sometimes) and is constantly criticizing the other two for not being able to keep up with him; because of this, he seems to long for a solo deal when he finally gets signed onto a label, which he perpetually believes will happen very soon.
He has, in such cases found other work as a police officer/vigilante, steel worker, and a member of the frequently changing in tone band Feedbag.
After Doug failed his rite of manhood firewalk, the tribe banished him to Canada, where he found a job as a janitor.
Among these professions have been Carnie, the janitor at a different carnival, cruise ship worker (along with Sol and Ricky), bodyguard, and impromptu butcher.
At some point, he tries to leave pornography behind and start to date real women, but he accidentally ends up working in adult cinema.
Much like his eldest son, he was a heavy drinker as well, and frequently abused and insulted the boys when they were young (according to recurring flashbacks seen in the show), even developing the pet names "shithead" for Sol and "dorknuts" for Ricky.
