Here's another way, with one-line rythmic staff.

dummy = \relative c {

  \set squashedPosition = #0
  \override NoteHead #'style = #'slash
  \override Stem #'transparent = ##t

  \key g \major
  \repeat unfold 2 { c4 c c c }
}

harmonies = \chordmode {
  b2:7 e:7
  a:7 d:7

}

\score {
        
  <<      

  \new ChordNames \harmonies

  \new RhythmicStaff
    {
    \set RhythmicStaff.instrumentName = \markup { "Solos" }
    \new Voice = "rhythm" \dummy
    }

  >>

  \layout {
    \context {
    \RhythmicStaff
    \consists "Pitch_squash_engraver"
    \consists "Clef_engraver"
    \consists "Key_engraver"
    }
  } % close layout
} % close score
