Silian Rail

Silian Rail is Robin (guitar) and Eric (drums, foot synth, glockenspiel). They play instrumental music which combines richly complex, open-tuning, finger picked guitar playing with aggressive, intricate drumming. Their songs are constantly shifting mazes of rich melodies and intense rhythms, equally epic, fragile and explosively dynamic. They are long lost friends who grew up together in Durham, North Carolina and parted ways at 13, only to re-meet accidentally years later in California. Drawn together by the shared history of their musically rich hometown and the sheer oddball luck of the situation, they began playing music together. They found it quite delightful, and they have kept since then, playing everywhere from the Bottom of the Hill to Churches in Modesto, and with numerous incredible bands, including From Monument to Masses, Maserati, Tartufi, Judgement Day, and Giraffes? Giraffes! They have also been pleased to participate in the Madcat Women's International Film Festival three years in a row, performing original live scores. They are proud members of Thread Productions (East Bay Express' Best Music Collective of 2007), alongside Tartufi and Low Red Land......They are excited, busy, humble, grateful and loud.......
