Brooklyn-based queer singer/songwriter Ben Silby unveils their long-awaited debut album "can't hang," a genre-blurring, emotionally raw, and infectiously catchy journey through the many lives they've lived between 2014 and now.
Ben Silby
Equal parts existential and earworm, "can't hang" merges Indie Pop, Bedroom Pop, and Alternative with a disarming blend of humour and vulnerability. Known for weaving heavy themes into bright sonic textures, Silby's music echoes the bold honesty of Fiona Apple, the theatrical introspection of Rufus Wainwright, and the genre-defying experimentation of Perfume Genius and James Blake.
Girlie Curse
girliecurse is a queer, indie rock band from brooklyn blending surf rock, indie sleaze, and messy guitar pop. led by ben silby, their sound lands somewhere between the strokes and a the smiths. they play loud, fast, and often in downtown manhattan and brooklyn.
zoinks!
