Welcome!

hello!

Welcome to Silhavey. We are a rock band from Chicago. We'd like for you to listen to the rock music we make. Our first album is an EP we call Maru.

"...very impressed with their six song debut, mostly for the songwriting, but there are also some interesting production touches as well..." – Richard Milne, WXRT's Local Anesthetic (link)
"...Needless to say, I was pleased. They’ve written some really catchy, guitar-driven songs that I had to share...heavily guitar-driven, but incorporates horns, organs, and lots of other fun instruments to keep it interesting. They cross over into pop with extremely catchy chorus melodies, but not too much so that I find it repetitive or boring." – Tight Mix Blog (link)
"Maru is a fine debut from an exciting young band..." – The Deli Chicago Magazine (link)
"Their playfully poppy EP Maru contains all of the aforementioned and delivers their spin on indie rock swaddled in a crisp sheet of 60’s era beach rock. Songs like "Jungle" and "Last Words" have the elasticity of a superball and are guaranteed to bounce around in your head for days after your first encounter with Maru." – Reviewsic (link)
"...power pop just the way I like it: quick and quirky...The sunny, tight hooks of their music [were] reminiscent of anything from They Might Be Giants to the Apples in Stereo...And have I mentioned the songwriting? Clever, but not in the way that makes you roll your eyes." – Big Shoulder Beat (link)
