From their humble Denton, Texas birth in 2003 to their current home in Brooklyn, NY, The Silver Arrows have been curing jaded, white hipsters everywhere with the guitar glory of their ecstatic live shows.
Their recent cd debut, "Arpeggionassis" reveals a wide range of influences: "First Cousin Surfer Friend" marries the surf twang of the Ventures to 90's wobbly guitar licks a la Polvo, while "She's In Love" dresses up earnest tunefulness in the misty meditations of "Future Days" era Can. Despite the apparent eclecticism, each song bears the mark of The Silver Arrows' unorthodox yet accessible pop sensibility.
"hectic cracked and crazy sugar-spazz shenanigans and polka-dot rhythms..."
-Michael Chamy, Dallas Observer
"The genre-hopping quintet went all over the map-- surf-rock, jazz, Latin, fluff-pop-- but the catchy, punk-meets-Zappa mess came together so well, largely because of dual-lead guitar lines and erratic song structures, that it left me with a feedback-filled brain."
-Sam Machkovech, Dallas Observer
"I can't decide exactly what to think of the Silver Arrows... goofy lyrics and a stylistic range that's all over the place - bits of shoegaze, AOR inspired indie pop, and avant-rock loosely inspired by early Pink Floyd and Beefheart."

"At first glance, these guys will give you an impression of Pavement. But they have a much heavier and darker sound, but with a truly wonderful pop sensibility. JR Thomason is one of the most unique writers to emerge from Denton, and will surely be a huge hit in their new home of New York City."
we like the videos - can't help but think you guys needed to jump in the ocean and save some drowning person by throwing your guitar at them and pulling them in - ha ha corny, i know
