Three for Silver

OK, what is Three For Silver? Three For Silver is an aggressively original band that is impervious to easy description. PR people often use phrases like Mythic Americana, Doomfolk, or Apocalypso. Some of those are pretty good, but they still just feel like the desperate necessities of someone forced to fill out a form box labelled "Genre". Three For Silver features one-of-a-kind instruments you've never seen playing styles mixed in ways you've never heard. Perhaps it is pop music from an exceptionally dark parallel dimension. The band has hit the road since 2013, and their monomaniacal devotion has already led them all over the USA and the world, from Accordion Festivals in Vienna to Modern Music Expos in Russia, and even partnering with the US State Department for ongoing cultural exchange tours to countries thirsty for truly original American music. The good book tells us of a secret chord that David played, and that it pleased the lord. Three For Silver does not know this chord, nor have they displayed any interest in learning it. But they have their own secret chord they've been working on. Like all sufficiently advanced technology, the chord is indistinguishable from magic, and like magic, a little misstep can backfire spectacularly. But when they hit that chord just right, just one strike will dispel the fog and mist and reveal wild originality growing right in front of you. Or not. There's no accounting for taste.
