The Silver Threads are a four-piece band rooted in
traditional country, bluegrass, gospel, and old-school rock
and roll. Torch-bearers of vintage twang, they perform
classics from the American songbook and original songs
written with due diligence to the tradition. Expect
barn-burners, close harmonies, hard shuffles, steel
guitar-tinged ballads and banjo breakdowns-- honest
American music.
