SILVER, The Straight Ups, Luke Sweeney

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Silver

Silver is an American Rock'n'Roll group based out of Reno, Nv. High energy performance, 4 part harmonies and a strong focus on songwriting and stories about love, heartbreak, and parties. "...the band members exuded the kind of influence that leads to both terrible decision-making and epic storytelling." -Anna Sather Hart, Reno News Review

The Straight Ups

Native bay area Rock and Soul. Born in Oakland in 2011, we have now reached the next stage in our evolution. The Straight Ups have been known to rock the party whether it's with unique originals or classic covers. Our goal is to bring the Funk and the Noise, if you know what I mean, to all the girls and the boys and everyone in between. Straight Up.

Luke Sweeney

San Francisco poet, composer, and guitarist Luke Sweeney picks up a variety of stylings from forebearers such as Marc Bolan, Al Green, and Stephen Malkmus like pieces of pavement bubblegum to build a bridge into new, unforged territories of psychedelic pop. This journey is sustained by a palpable substance in the hapless escape artists, hopeless romantics, and enduring spiritual images he embraces and celebrates along the way. A “pillar of San Francisco's garage-psych community” (TheBayBridged), Sweeney branched out from previous outfits to release his own material in 2013, resulting thus far in two critically acclaimed albums. His self-released debut ‘Ether Ore’ gained praises for its “distinctly handcrafted feel” and “melodies that feel like opiates for the soul” (SF Chronicle), while his studio follow-up ‘Adventure:Us’(Aerobic International) expanded into “far-reaching pop, psychedelic, and classic-rock realms with humor and irreverence—both calling cards of Sweeney's songwriting,” and was considered “one of the best albums released” in 2014 (Portland Mercury).
