Bringing great ROCK to a crowd that spans throughout the United States and across the world! Silvergun brings a style of music that has the ability to get down and dirty, expressing the raw emotion that hard rock is known for, while maintaining a sense of calm within the storm.
Silvergun’s not-so-humble beginnings date back to 2000. Joel Wanasek, Lewie Snyder and Brett Dumstrey started the group writing heavy, fast-paced metal with intricate solos at breakneck speeds. After the release of their first album in 2003, Silvergun gained national recognition by winning the 2004 "Best Metal Act" in the New York International Music Festival.
In 2006, Silvergun chose to embrace a wider audience with their second album. This album sent the group on tours throughout the United States and South America. Late 2007 marked the beginning of the road ahead. The band parted ways with their previous drummer and recruited Ben “Doctor” Preuss to take the position on the drum throne. Ben had a reputation of being a powerhouse behind the kit and after coming back from a year long music venture in Atlanta, was ready to join a band whose aggressive pursuit of music was equal to his own.
Months later, the group discovered the talents of their fifth member. Jordan Lee came into contact with Silvergun while in the process of producing his own professional demo. The band wasted no time recruiting the 22 year old vocalist. With Jordan taking on the role of front man the band has become one of the most driven, up and coming rock bands of the 21st century. Since that time, Silvergun has worked tirelessly to bring a new album to the forefront of mainstream rock. Their newly refined sound promises to be something much more than another average CD at Best Buy. It’s going to rock! We hope you’re ready!
