Offering a contemporary take on the NYC art-rock of the late ’70s and early ’80s, Dublin 5-piece Silverback are performing live at The Castle in March 2021.

The band released their debut album Fad in July 2020. Dealing with the world’s present gloom via lighthearted humour, it’s a fidgety, fun-loving record that sees Silberbacks pulling from a melting pot of art-rock, post-punk, and 90s indie influences.

It should make for a great live show at The Castle.
