A Silent Film: Digital Album Launch, Sept 22, 2008

After three successful single releases, A Silent Film appeared for their digital album launch last night at the interesting venue of the All Saints shop near Liverpool Street. The Oxford quartet played a short set of tunes from their debut album; The City that Sleeps including their singles; 'Thirteen Times the Strength', 'Sleeping Pills', and 'You Will Leave a Mark' as well as their popular ambiant cover version of Underworld's 'Born Slippy'. Using piano and a great mix of melodic harmonies their performance was not short of brilliant and their style of delivery is intense. Speaking with each member of the band (Stevenson, Jones, Hussain and Walker) it is very pleaseing to see that they are all very friendly down to earth!

A Silent Film are set to release their Sam Williams (Supergrass, The Noisettes) produced debut album 'The City that Sleeps' on October 6, 2008.
