About Silent Trust-
It's the dichotomy of Gulf Coast quartet Silent Trust's larger-than-life stage
presence backed by lyrical transparency about offstage struggles that connects so
powerfully with fans, making their hard rock all the more commanding.
That, and the fact that band-Vocalist Andrew Cospelich, guitarist Mike Yorks,
drummer Dustin Mclean and bassist Corey Mccollough-draw from a handful of
influences ranging from epic '80s anthems to grunge, to heavy metal and modern
contemporaries like Breaking Benjamin to create a sound they've heard compared
more often to a moment than to any music the listener has heard before-a je ne
sais quoi mixture of thunderous drums and bass and captivating guitar imbued
with the spirit of survival and resilience to keep the music flowing through
unimaginable circumstances including depression, homelessness, being
repeatedly ravaged by tropical storms and even cancer.
With a new round of singles produced by Jim Wirt (Incubus, Hoobastank), the
band start from square-one, making a firm sonic declaration positioning them to
spread their message to the largest audiences they've seen yet. It's clear these
humble Mississippi rockers belong on massive stages with their heartfelt rock
blasted through towering stacks to thousands of people who may find just what
they need to escape in their music.
