The band’s self-titled debut album will be out November 15th. Martin revealed how the album came about: “Hi everyone, I’d like to announce a new recording project called SILVERLITES, which I recorded and produced during the pandemic and is soon to be released. “It started in a Nashville hotel room in 2019, where I recorded the initial acoustic guitar tracks, and it features some truly exceptional musicians: Joseph Arthur on lead vocals, Peter Buck on acoustic guitars, Rich Robinson on acoustic and electric guitars, and myself on drums, upright bass, vibraphone, and backing vocals.
This is the first single ‘Don’t Go, Don’t Stay’ is out now on all digital platforms, and the entire album can be previewed and preordered as well. We hope you like the songs, as we spent the pandemic years doing various recording and mixing sessions, and we used a classic song writing form, which is often forgotten in this day and age. That is, acoustic guitars (with a little electric guitar in there),with superb lead vocals, catchy backing vocals, and a soulful backbeat in the rhythm section. It’s old school song writing, just like us.”.
“Don’t Go, Don’t Stay” will be included on SILVERLITES‘ upcoming self-titled debut album, which is due on November 15th via Sunyata Records. And the full length, self titled debut comes out November 15th
With another single “Dark And Magic Sky” due November 1st The album cover was made by Rich And the utmost concern was invested in making sure that we all weren’t wearing sunglasses.
