First Time on Vinyl LP!
A stunning set of songs exploring American music in all its many aspects. You'll hear everyone from Hank Williams to The Pixies, but it never sounds forced. Legendary producer Paul Q. Kolderie (Radiohead, Uncle Tupelo, Hole, Pixies) pulls it all together into a muscular, rocking sound that has a sometimes surprisingly tender core. Borges' songwriting range is most impressive in someone so young, and her band, which includes ex-Blood Oranges multi-instrumentalist Jimmy Ryan, gives the songs ample breathing room. Silver City emerged as one of the most striking debuts of 2007.
...Borges' first album is a winner. Silver City serves as a compelling calling card to the alternative country-rock world and establishes Borges as a performer to watch for in the future.
