Comprised of veteran musicians in the Iowa City band scene, Indie Pop-Rock powerhouse Slip Silo delivers a winning fusion of powerful rock, pop hooks, and high energy that brings superb musicianship to diverse audiences everywhere. Band members Matt Logan (guitar/vocals), Drew Morton (bass/vocals), Brian Lewis Smith (trumpet/laptop/synths), and Justin LeDuc (drums/electronics) have spent years defying musical boundaries, blending influences as diverse as Mute Math, Incubus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Postal Service, Jaga Jazzist, John Mayer, 311 and Radiohead into their uniquely accessible music. The depth of their writing and playing keeps the most astute musicians engrossed in the show, while their energy and catchy hooks reel in casual listeners. Slip Silo originals immediately engage listeners, who can't help but sing along by the second chorus with the same abandon as they do when the band plays their favorite covers. Formed by Matt Logan, Drew Morton, and Justin LeDuc in 2007, the band was reborn with the addition of Brian Lewis Smith in the Fall of 2009. The guys are busy writing new material, cutting their first EP, and gearing up to unleash their innovative sound across the Midwest. It’s a whole new Slip Silo, so join them for a great show at a fine local establishment near you!
