Background
“The opening chords of Northstar Grassman sent shivers down my back.”
Graham Shimmel – singer/songwriter
Based in Chorley, Lancashire, Silver Dogs is an eclectic and highly original 6-piece band with a trademark sound and style that ranges from acoustic folk to progressive rock – and beyond!
The band has a wealth of gigging, touring and recording experience within its ranks, and has established a reputation for stunning musicianship, high octane performances and a top quality sound.
Silver Dogs features powerful vocals with lead fiddle and guitar, all driven by a rock solid rhythm section. The songs usually have a story to tell which will most likely contain mystical elements of love (usually lost or unrequited), betrayal, death, the sea, madness – and the occasional set of tunes. But Silver Dogs’ is a band very firmly planted in the 21st Century – “this lot put more rock into folk than many other bands put together.” (Tim Carroll, Folk Words)
The band has gained a big following from gigs in pubs, clubs, theatres, and festivals - as well as from airplay, radio performances and downloads.
So that’s about it. You’ll have to come to see the band, listen to the CD or give them a gig to find out more. You won’t be disappointed.
