PEOPLE SAY…
With the infectious unfolding of “Mid Air,” Margot Bassett Silver – under the moniker Silversmith – shares thoughts on moving through the messy pursuit of love. Silver beckons us deeper, drawing us in to claim this search as our own. - September 2024 scouting report for the current’s local show (chosen as 1 of 10 emergent artists)
Silversmith’s music is a kind of sorcery. Intricate and haunting, each song is a tapestry, a weaving together of all the exact right threads to make the exact right thing. You can listen like a technician and admire the songs’ craft, like opening a watch and marveling at its works, or you can receive them like intimate and miraculous gifts, something you cherish without quite understanding how it came to exist. Deep, playful, and frank lyrics are paired with compositions of uncommon complexity, precision, and surprise. The result is genuinely unlike anything I’ve ever heard. - songwriter Erica Terpening-Romeo
