Alex (Silver Snakes)

SPB: Who was your favorite band that you discovered on your last tour?

Alex: My favorite band I discovered on our last tour is Third Seven. We were playing our last show with HRVRD at The Launchpad in Albuquerque, NM and I was captivated by the music playing over the PA after sound check. Layers of cello, rhythmic and haunting vocals, all the things I love. I asked the sound guy about it and he pulled out a burned cd that said "Cascadia"--turns out it was the title of the release. I did some research and found out it was a one man band under the name Third Seven. I bought the record online and marked my calendar for Oct 9th, the day he was playing a bar in Los Angeles. He put on an incredible show and he actually knew about our band! I'm hoping to play shows with him in the future.
