If you yearn for the days of emo, when bands like The Used, Story Of The Year, and Saosin ruled the airwaves, look no further. Silos has just released their latest single, “Lighthouse,” and it will transport you back to the MTV2 era. You won’t be disappointed. They also brought in some heavyweights to add to the vibe, including Crazy Town, known for their megahit “Butterfly.”
‘Lighthouse’ is a very special song about finding love in a dark place,” shares GARRISON. “Coming out of a long battle of addiction and into a new journey of sobriety, I met someone who helped carry me through and light my path. Also, in this time frame I met Seth ‘Shifty’ from Crazy Town who was on a similar journey. After I had this song, I couldn’t think of a better person to feature on it and be in the music video. He’s a ladies’ man, an OG and understands the lyrics more than anyone I know. This song is a supersonic blast through pop, rock and electronic and the music video we have for this is as EPIC as can be. We are excited for ‘Lighthouse.’”
SILOS, based in LA, is a band with members from around the globe—bassist Philip Strange Nielsen (ex-CrazyTown) from Denmark, guitarist Nick Dromin from Ukraine, and drummer David Rehmann and guitarist Ramón Blanco Ariza from Spain, both with touring time for Grandson.
