Eyal & Radiator King - Songwriters Guild Live

Songwriters Guild Live

Songwriters Guild Live is a weekly radioshow in Amsterdam, focussed on artists who write their own songs. This week your host was Ro Halfhide. We're mentioned as one of the leading podcasts on songwriting! blog.feedspot.com/songwriting_podcasts/ Eyal: Eyal is een verhalenverteller die het hele alternatieve folk-, rock- en indie oeuvre bespeelt in eigenwijze, melodieuze, verhalende liedjes. Radiator King: Somewhere between punk and blues – a porch and an alley – lies Radiator King, the performing/recording name of Boston native and Brooklyn based, Adam Silvestri. Established in 2011, Radiator King’s music shows influences from both Dylan and Strummer with a sound described by Boston blog Allston Pudding as something akin to what “Tom Waits locked in a room for a month with nothing but a copy of Springsteen’s Nebraska” might produce. Whether alone with a guitar or backed by a band, Radiator King embodies the raw energy of punk, the grit and intricacy of delta blues, and the lyrical potency of folk in “songs that are the sonic equivalent to an old whiskey bar at the end of a dirt road.” In early 2019, Radiator King, the musician behind 2017’s A Hollow Triumph After All released his newest project — the Roll the Dice EP, via SoundEvolution records. Imbued with the pugilistic grit and deft lyrical instincts that have long defined the songwriting of Adam Silvestri, Roll the Dice’s lead track “Raylene” serves dually as a thematic continuance of steps taken and a turning point in Silvestri’s development and direction as songsmith.
