The SILK Theory
"Simplicity with Substance"
Formed as an underground recording collaboration, The SILK Theory has quickly earned a reputation as a hardworking and versatile group. Founding members, Chris Reynolds (Vocals), Johnny Shortland (Drums), Paul Lowe (Bass) and Jethro Herman (Guitars), have created a sound that is familiar yet completely unique. The bands deep pocketed rhythms are the perfect canvas for Chris's voice which leaves any listener craving more. With such strong backgrounds the band continues to expand their abilities and exceed musical limits.
