Live Music

Vieira and The Silvers + Support

‘London newcomers Vieira and The Silvers take their classic rock and proto-punk heroes by the hand and tastefully subvert expectations. Nostalgic sensibilities, contrasted by flashes of dynamic art-rock, indie, soul and disco, set the sextet apart from mere revivalism, and establish them as a compelling modern rock band. Songs which are often tangled up in an existential angst or a rat-race disillusionment, when coupled by frontman Diogo Vieira da Silva’s characterfully zany performance, make for an act as theatrical as it is thought provoking. Two guitars handled by Ben Curling and Ethan Faith respectively, enable the band to chop and swap rhythm and lead lines, properly paying homage to their classic rock forefathers. The tenor saxophone played by Cormac Coyle, wailing exuberantly through the louder moments, and then adding rich, melodic colour in softer breaks, serves as a distinguishing feature of the sextet’s sound. The rhythm section — Reece Dean on bass and Lennon Donaldson on drums — anchor the band’s dynamics with precision and flair, enabling seamless exchanges between swaggering blues-rock, unexpected detours, and passages of mellow groove-laden soul. Vieira and The Silvers began in Norwich, UK in 2022, where Diogo Vieira da Silva first earned attention for a one-man incarnation of the band, quickly becoming a local favourite through a string of energetic live shows.
