Silver Sun - Switzerland (2020)

Amongst all the anoraks, mono brows, mod haircuts,
Adidas as far as the eye could see and Gibson guitars,
there were some groups taking things a little less
seriously in 90’s indie landscape.

Silver Sun were born and raised in North London in the
mid to late nineteen nineties with a smidgen more of a
penchant for the Spinal Tap absurdity of rock’n’roll
than your average Britpopper. Before the Manic Street
Preachers, James Broad and friends stole the sun but
pumped into our hearts with their overblown summer beach
party pop. If Brian Wilson had pitched up in Camden 30
years later than he did in California, having already
existed and created surf rock’n’roll, he would have been
in Silver Sun, or he would have been Mr Broad.
