The new album, Midnight Eyes, is finally complete! Check out www.thesilkdemise.com to preview all the tracks and artwork... --- Check out the newly posted remix of "Bound" by "The Metrosexuals"! Based in Toronto, 'the silk demise' combines the elements of trip-hop and dark ambience to create a sound that is both dark and soothing. Incessant bass, throbbing beats, and the incredible vocal talents of Olivia Zielinski (along with collaborations with Edie Marshall, and Anna Ivanova) comprise 'the silk demise'.
Band/artist history
Started in 2002 with Edie Marshall, but she was working in Beauty's Confusion. Met Olivia in Toronto and released our self-titled debut in 2004. Touched based with Edie over the years and eventually we put together the new album, Midnight Eyes, in mid-2009... That's the really short version of the history.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
No, and unfortunately, this is not in the mix right now. All the tracks are recorded in a makeshift home studio. Plus, Bill is in Toronto, Edie is in California, and Olivia in Montreal... we're all over the place.
