About this concert
MUSIC FOR EVER PRODUCTION PRESENTE : THE SILENCERSAu début des années 80, quatre jeunes de Glasgow s’exilent à Londres pour monter ce qu’ils appelleraient à l’époque un ‘vrai’ groupe. Un groupe qui composerait des chansons personnelles, empreintes d’émotion, dans le but de toucher les gens. The Silencers étaitné et les voici aujourd’hui de retour avec un dixième album : Silent Highway.La recette reste inchangée. Des morceaux méticuleusement fabriqués de manière artisanale, des mélodies exaltantes et des textes sensibles. Les douze titres qui composent Silent Highway vous marqueront et feront corps avec vous - un groove hypnotique qui vous fera taper du pied ou danser sur des paroles aussi bien authentiques, sincères ou irréelles que politiques, ironiques ou amusantes.Silent Highway a été crée pendant le confinement de 2020 entre Nantes, Rennes et Glasgow, et co-produit par Jimme et Baptiste Brondy, batteur du groupe Delgrès. Jimme O’Neill souhaitait revenir aux sources de ce qui a forgé le son des Silencers à savoir leur tout premier album A Letter from St. Paul, celui par lequel tout à commencé. Même si les trois premiers albums de The Silencers ont été disques d’or en France et que le groupe jouit toujours d’une très solide communauté de fans ici et dans le monde, le souhait profond de Jimme était, avec ce nouvel album, d’être à la hauteur et de ne surtout pas les décevoir. Ce confinement signifiait donc que le groupe allait devoir trouver une nouvelle manière de travailler et d’enregistrer ce dixième disque - il leur fallait compter sur la technologie pour échanger leurs idées. Et finalement, après que chaque membre eut fait sa part dans son coin, le résultat était là avec le souvenir du premier album bien présent et un Silent Highway comme une synthèse quasi- parfaite de tout ce qu’ils avaient accompli et réalisé depuis leurs débuts.

The Silencers Biography
There are three recorded bands with this name.
1. The Silencers from United Kingdom have existed since the late 1980s. They were formed from the ashes of the 1980s band Fingerprintz.
The Silencers began their career with the 1987 album A Letter from St Paul. Although they had a couple of hits in their early career, the band were not rewarded with commercial success until the Scottish Tourist Board featured their version of the traditional song Wild Mountain Thyme, a hit which surprised everyone concerned and featured Jimme's daughter Aura
The band were dropped from their RCA/BMG in 1996 and Jimme realised it was an opportunity for experimenting with The Silencers classic sound, Aura joined full time and Milla joined on fiddle, allowing JImme to rediscover the bands celtic roots.
Since then, there have been three studio albums, Receiving '99, Come 2003 and a brand new album due in 2023 - SILENT HIGHWAY - the band have continued touring since 2004 with the same line up which includes Jimme's two sons; James & Conor O'Neill and while they are happy to play through the extensive back catalogue, they are also excited by the new material they'll soon get to share.
