Silverhawk, after eleven years and hundreds of shows is releasing their third album The Forest For the Trees on Thursday, December 1 at the Spare Room, 9pm, $5. The Spare Room is a venue that everyone should go to at least once. It used to be a bowling alley and has a charm all its own.
It helps keep Portland weird, but then so does Silverhawk. The brothers Densmore, Sam and John C., along with Coby Bixby and Anthony Cotham make up this band which calls itself Psychedelic Rock band.

Along the way, they’ve opened for Frank Black, Screaming Trees, Mike Watt, and the Posies. They’ve also been employed as studio musicians/songwriters on various productions including projects with Ted Connelly, Bobby Lindstrom, Jeremy Wilson, the Who’s orchestral arranger Raphael Rudd, and the son of Mickey Most and former Johnny Hates Jazz producer/songwriter Calvin Hayes.
Sam and John C are components of of Mastan Music, home of the very popular The MastanMusic Hour Podcast which Sam produces along with studio co-ownerJeremy Wilson, and on which John C. serves as videographer. You’ll hardly find better documentation of Rock in Portland than that podcast.
Watch Silverhawk perform “My My Mary.” Recorded live at the MastanMusic Studio in Portland for The MastanMusic Hour Podcast.

What is Psychedelic about this band? Straight up old school rock and roll, sure, but there is nothing psychedelic about this track.
That’s what they call themselves.
