Silverbacks are an invigorating indie rock band hailing from Dublin, Ireland, renowned for their artful blend of post-punk and alternative rock sensibilities. The band consists of siblings Daniel and Kilian O'Kelly, Emma Hanlon, Peadar Kearney, and Gary Wickham, and they have been carving a distinctive niche in the indie music scene with their sharp-witted lyrics and dynamic instrumentals. Making waves with their 2020 debut album "Fad," they captivated music aficionados with their sardonic takes on contemporary life underscored by their energetic sound and satirical edge.

Their follow-up, "Archive Material," released in 2022, showcased a matured sound highlighting their evolution as a band. Silverbacks' music is characterized by a kaleidoscopic approach to genre, weaving together a tapestry of influences ranging from the frenetic energy of punk to the melodic grooves of classic rock. Tracks like "A Job Worth Something" and "Rolodex City" further cement their reputation for thoughtful commentary wrapped in memorable hooks, while "Wear My Medals" and "Muted Gold" showcase their ability to balance lyrical depth with an infectious rhythm section that's become a signature of Silverbacks' compelling sound.
