About Me


Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor - Image Hosting

Fábio Silva was born in 1988 in a little village in Portugal… at the age of 14 he started a project with two friends called Nancy Boys that was supposed to be a tribute to Placebo but was never played live or released… Two years later he joined two other friends to form a noise-pop-folk-opera band called Chanson Crimineaux, this band played several times live and recorded a demo called ‘Above The Tower And All The Other Buildings’ that featured 8 songs based on samples of 80’s pop music and lots of instruments played randomly by the three members… At seventeen Fábio started a solo project called Candy Land with influences gathered all through his life. He often records new songs made by simple methods with various instruments and electronics… In 2007 he recorded two EPs (‘Blackbird’ and ‘Sorrowed Rythm’) available for free download here at the myspace page; in 2008 he recorded a new EP called ‘Golden Boy’ available for free streaming at his lastfm page and an album called ‘Crystal Feathers’ also available for free download here. http://www.mediafire.com/?2lq9vl2c3cz http://www.mediafire.com/?a0bnnxwmmzu http://www.lastfm.com.br/music/Candy+Land%2A/Golden+Boy+EP http://www.mediafire.com/?zv2rxr2mwwi
