About

Silver Dawn’s interest in music was fostered by her music aficionado, physicist father, who had a sense of reverence for vinyl and the eclectic recordings etched into their spiraling grooves. Encouraged to experiment and question things as a child, and given free reign to play with fascinating equipment he brought home from NPL, she wondered about the ‘mathematics of vibration in time’, which is music what music is, and how this can evoke such strong feelings in our bodies, vibrant images in our minds, and jolt our nerves into needing to dance.

 

Trying to solve this mystery, led her to study jazz and composition at LCM, to research the physics and history of music, to write songs, join choirs, holler at free jazz jams, get lost in the rhythm of samba bands, to write and play in post-punk and experimental outfits and to teach herself music production.

 

Through music, she finds memories and feelings are triggered that can’t be accessed or expressed in any other way, and has found this exploration tends to turn into a journey into the self.
