BandsYou are in: Guernsey > Unsigned Bands > Bands > Said in Silver ![]() Said in SilverA trio of laid back acoustic rock musicians blending male and female vocal harmonies with mellow bass and interesting guitar parts. ![]() Diggi and Astrid. Who Are They?Diggi Schrader: Guitar & Vocals Astrid: Vocals Nick: Bass Band HistoryDiggi (influenced by the likes of Silverchair, Blind Melon, & oursleepwalkinghero) & Nick (by Guns 'n' Roses, Jimmy Eat World & The Cure) often brought their instruments together in song, but there was just not enough there - it wasn't 'right'. So they asked fellow school-friend Astrid (a fan of Paramore, Mest & Phil Collins) to join them on vocals - they liked what they heard. With Diggi & Astrid both contributing songs of their own previous work & co-writing new ones they soon created a large list of originals, together with a few choice covers. ![]() Astrid and Nick. They made a small debut at a bbq for Diggi's family before playing their first 'proper' gig at Discharge's Battle Of The Bands '06. They took a brief break over August '06 as most members were away on holiday, & they intend on joining with other local acoustic bands for gigs starting in early September. The FutureThey intend to record a CD before Astrid & Diggi leave for university in September 07', play as much as they can throughout the remaining year & maybe even re-uniting every once in a while when the members happen to be in the same place at the same time. Their Favourite Gig"Battle Of The Bands '06. It was our first, we were on first & suitably scared as our set only including two covers out of eleven songs, with most of the small audience never having heard the rest. We pulled through, with a minimum of Diggi forgetting lines. Though I am sure we were nothing spectacular, we seemed to be appreciated & hopefully even liked by some." last updated: 14/10/2008 at 11:17 SEE ALSOYou are in: Guernsey > Unsigned Bands > Bands > Said in Silver |
