Silver Snakes – Watch an Acoustic Performance of “Red”

by | Feb 13, 2014

Ever wonder what those dudes in Horse The Band are up to these days? Well, we can tell you a couple of the members play in Silver Snakes. Remember when Horse The Band did that massive DIY world tour and Erik Engstrom told us how they thought they were going to die on their plane landing in Malaysia? Crazy stuff.

While Silver Snakes won’t be going to Malaysia anytime soon, they will be putting out a new album next month called Year Of The Snake. We’ve been anxiously awaiting this record since the last time we saw the band play in Anaheim with HRVRD. So if you haven’t had a chance to see these guys yet, they’ll be touring with Scale The Summit and The Ocean all of next month.

Year Of The Snake comes out on March 4th through Bridge Nine. Here’s an acoustic performance of their new song “Red” to hold you over.
