Jarred Up Presents:
Vieira and the Silvers
+ Eszter Vida + Hopeful Dream Cult
London newcomers Vieira and The Silvers take their classic rock and proto-punk heroes by the hand and tastefully subvert expectations. Nostalgic sensibilities, contrasted by flashes of dynamic art-rock, indie, soul and disco, set the sextet apart from mere revivalism, and establish them as a compelling modern rock band.
Songs which are often tangled up in an existential angst or a rat-race disillusionment, when coupled by frontman Diogo Vieira da Silva’s characterfully zany performance, make for an act as theatrical as it is thought provoking. Two guitars handled by Ben Curling and Ethan Faith respectively, enable the band to chop and swap rhythm and lead lines, properly paying homage to their classic rock forefathers. The tenor saxophone played by Cormac Coyle, wailing exuberantly through the louder moments, and then adding rich, melodic colour in softer breaks, serves as a distinguishing feature of the sextet’s sound. The rhythm section — Reece Dean on bass and Lennon Donaldson on drums — anchor the band’s dynamics with precision and flair, enabling seamless exchanges between swaggering blues-rock, unexpected detours, and passages of mellow groove-laden soul.
Vieira and The Silvers began in Norwich, UK in 2022, where Diogo Vieira da Silva first earned attention for a one-man incarnation of the band, quickly becoming a local favourite through a string of energetic live shows. The band notably headlined and sold out several hometown venues multiple times, including Norwich Arts Centre and Voodoo Daddy’s Showroom, before Vieira da Silva relocated to London in 2024, where the acquisition of new members evolved the project from a solo vision into a collaborative, fully fledged band. Since 2024, the current lineup continues to push the sound into bolder, more sculpted territory, and Vieira and The Silvers have supported artists such as New Candys, Magic Shoppe, and Full Flower Moon Band on sold-out bills across the UK, appearing at festivals including Left of the Dial (Rotterdam) and Red Rooster Festival (UK), and headlined multiple London venues such as The Old Blue Last, Paper Dress Vintage, and The Strongroom — all to capacity crowds.
The London sextet now prepare to unveil their debut five-track EP ‘Well Fed, Fully Clothed, and Completely Sane’, recorded with producer Sean Read (Iggy Pop, Mark Lanegan, Gabriels) at Famous Times Studio in Hackney. The debut EP, scheduled for release in February of 2026, serves as a first proper glimpse into Vieira and The Silvers’ ambitious creative world — venturesome, full of energy, and characteristically theatrical.
