Roots and Rhythms
Sunday November 26th, 2023 with Dick Altavista
The Silos began in 1985 releasing 12 albums right up to 2022. How to describe the music? Their website states:”plugging the main cable of American rock idiom into the jerry-rigged soundboard of Velvets-era feral experimentalism.” I’d just say it’s great.

HB glad to have you on board. You can thank my friend and former band leader Lone Pig for the suggestion. We used to play “Let’s Take Some Drugs And Drive Around” in a band aptly named The Stumblers.
