Shaker 07:43 video
Hey Mother Ann you know you can come out and commune tonight Put on that dress of red and green and yellow Like cornfields in the sunlight Speak with the angel tongue Walk among the faithful now Seeds that are fruitful What is truthful you know it will arise Drink up the mystic Dance with the Maker Move ecstatic just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Move ecstatic Just like a Shaker Know that the darkness in our hearts will surely be revealed No man can hide the fierce tide gonna roll on in and wash us all clean Sleeping soul We will wake her Move ecstatic just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Move ecstatic Rise to the heavens Bow to the grave Shake them off these earthly chains Oh sisters gather up your treasures Silk and feathers wrapped around your hair Leave behind these days of sorrow Deep the furrow slow the plough Drink up the mystic Dance with the Maker Move ecstatic just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Move ecstatic Jerk like a rag doll spun by forces Ride your dreams like they were horses Rise to the heavens Bow to the grave Shake them off these earthly chains Just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Move ecstatic Just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Move ecstatic Just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker Move ecstatic Just like a Shaker Just like a Shaker…

Wolf 04:55 video
I stick to the tree line Stay low to the ground I take my time I take the long way round When the trail goes cold I double back Pick it up again I'm a lone rider I am not your friend Don't wanna be your dog Not like that I'm not the kind of dog that you pat I'm the wolf at your door The wolf at your door You had this coming all down the line 'Cos you've been running with the troubled kind Bad actors Drunk failures The sad parade of your so-called friends You know you'll never get nothing from them Call on Jules Call on Jim They won't give you anything I'm the wolf at your door The wolf at your door You can run to the river Run to the shore You can keep on running 'Til you can't run anymore But I'm outside And I'm inside too You look away But I see right through you I'm a bitch called karma Drag you down to the killing floor I'm the wolf at your door I'm the wolf at your door I'm the wolf at your door I'm the wolf at your door

about

Cheersquad are stoked to release the debut, self-titled album from Melbourne supergroup The Silversound.

The album is available as limited edition marbled double vinyl of recycled wax (100 copies only) and is also available on double black vinyl, CD and digital download. All tracks will be added to your Bandcamp catalogue.

A slithering juggernaut of gurgling guitars and dreamscape lyrics bubbling from Melbourne's dark underground, The Silversound is a deep psychedelic trip in the melody-rich tradition of rock's golden age of discovery. Phased and funky, fuzzed-up and freaked out, the road-hardened quartet of Australian fringe identities forged their first sojourn during one of the longest, hardest lockdowns on the planet, smuggling hope and tenderness from the gloom; soaring sitars and sky bound propulsion from the depths of pandemic static. From beefy boogie to rainwater jangle, loopy acoustic echoes to woolly overdrive, The Silversound's aquaplaning guitars and cyclical grooves will turn your dull grey matter inside out and your 21st century blues to every damn colour under the Fat Old Sun.

The Silversound are Shane O’Mara, Andrew Tanner, Stu Thomas and Leroy Cope. Between them, they have been involved with the icons of the Australian music scene; from Paul Kelly to Rebecca’s Empire, Kim Salmon to Dave Graney, Tim Rogers to Lisa Miller, toured the world and recorded a plethora of albums over the last three decades. Shane O’Mara, maestro guitarist, has played/recorded with Paul Kelly, Tim Rogers, Lisa Miller, Rob Snarski, Chris Wilson and many more. Andrew Tanner (vocals, guitar) is a founding member of Seven Stories and with Leroy Cope (drums) key member of psyche band Sand Pebbles and The Woodland Hunters. Multi-instrumentalist Stu Thomas (bass) is a member of Kim Salmon and the Surrealists, Dave Graney & the Mistly, and he fronts his voodoo surf band The Stu Thomas Paradox. All masters of their craft, they coalesce in The Silversound.
