Little Silver

Little Silver is Erika Simonian and Steve Curtis, whose two voices square off
in lockstep over the bed of their guitars. The band’s debut recording The
Stolen Souvenir is a bare and intimate window onto a small set of gorgeous
songs, and in April 2012 they released Dress Up, a striking and spare
interpretation of many of their favorite cover songs. Both albums are out on
their Record Park label.
Erika is a one decade veteran of NYC’s songwriter circle, with praise from
The New York Times and a Lilith Fair appearance to her name, and Steve is a
founding member of and writer for Hem, with whom he has sold over 85,000
records worldwide and performed all over. Hem’s trademark jewelbox
lullabies are a central feature of Little Silver’s sound as well, though with the
help of Ray Rizzo on drums (Dawn Landes, Doveman) and David Tarica on
bass (Mia Riddle), the band also reaches out, venturing into bold and
experimental sounds.
The Stolen Souvenir was co-produced by Phil Palazzolo (New Pornographers,
Ted Leo) and mixed by Brandon Eggleston (The Mountain Goats, Josh
Ritter). Dress Up was co-produced and recorded by Gary Maurer (Hem). The
full band is back in the studio this spring and summer to put together a
longplaying record, and the both the full quartet and the duo arrangement will
be on the road through 2013.
