Silk & Olive

Silk & Olive is the solo project of Portland, Oregon musician, Andy Fish. Dark & haunting, S & O exudes the rawness of PJ Harvey, the poetic lyricism of Suzanne Vega and the quirky art-folk finesse of Cat Power. "I recognize that there is a certain level of sadness associated with the human condition" muses Andy, "writing music is one of the most beautifully narcissistic ways of addressing those minute little scenarios of our existence. And it's cheaper than therapy.

"I recognize that there is a certain level of sadness associated with the human condition" muses Andy, "writing music is one of the most beautifully narcissistic ways of addressing those minute little scenarios of our existence. And it's cheaper than therapy." Haunting and nostalgic, S & O's melodic narrative tends to be stylistically sad or seductive, lyrically dwelling in the shadowy spaces of discordance, truth and eros.
