Sons of the Silent Age at Marion Cultural and Civic Center
Information
Sons of the Silent Age: The Sound and Vision of David Bowie is coming to Marion, IL. Come out and see them rock the Marion Cultural and Civic Center stage on December 8th.
Matt Walker and Chris Connelly were collaborating on a song when the seed was sown to start a band dedicated to the music of David Bowie. A stellar band was culled from Chicago’s elite musicians, all veterans in their own right with excellent musical pedigrees.
Songs from Bowie’s canon were selected, played and honed and Sons of the Silent Age became a living, vital entity.
In January 2013, Sons of the Silent Age played their inaugural charity show to a sold out crowd at Metro in Chicago. The benefit was so successful they decided to make it an annual event at Metro.
Years later, the band continues to thrive, playing select, prestigious shows including the opening of the “David Bowie Is” exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, and collaborating with kindred spirits such as Shirley Manson, Sinead O’Connor, Michael Shannon & Ava Cherry.
Sons of the Silent Age are dedicated musicians who love the material and know it intimately. The band pour their collective talents over Bowie’s 40+ years & 30 albums of dazzling music that irrefutably changed the face of music culture forever.
