Since I was young, I dreamt of having a band. I started writing since I was maybe 13 years-old. I’ve made some attempts with other people to make something but I find it hard to pull together a group with a shared vision, so I went solo but with a “band name”, a one-man band.” ~ Silver Magpie

I usually find myself dealing with some overwhelming emotions so, I like to think that my songs address people in similar situations and might help them feel less lonely.” ~ Silver Magpie
