SILVER LAKES The Great Pretenders Steven Satterfield, guitarist and vocalist of Seely (the first American band signed to Too Pure/Beggar's Banquet) takes the driver's seat in this new pop project, SILVER LAKES. The music of SILVER LAKES is gleeful, mellifluous and thoughtful, with a large dose of 60's and 80's nostalgia. Clean, jangly guitars, layers of sweet harmonies, and melodic bass lines are all brought to a fine precision point with crisp bells, chimes, horns, and strings. The result is textured, refreshing pop songs with infectious melodies that instantly stick in your head like a wet tongue to a frozen popsicle. Think sunny and bright, with a slight chill in the air.
