Lil Silva

Lil Silva is a young artist who has been making music since the ripe age of 10 years old. An incredibly talented English R&B singer, he's really been developing his style in recent years, evolving from the shy kid on the block, into a big act with names like BANKS and Sampha on his roll call. The guy is really beginning to move up in the industry, and his recent tour with BANKS is proof that he can keep up with the absolute best of them.

Lil Silva played with BANKS at Grand Central in Miami, Florida, in late September, and the duo could not have been more perfect. Lil Silva is a truly humble soul, with an air of quietness and calm around him that really draws you in to whatever he's performing at the time. He's recently opened up by using his voice in a more prominent capacity, and the newfound talent is completely evolving his act. Watching him walk out on the stage with confidence and this very serene kind of dignity was really amazing, and really got the audience in the mood for the show.

He's a wonderfully skilled young man, and only time will tell how far he's going to get - in any case, seeing him out there, putting forward everything he's got, really felt like the beginning of a new era for the guy, and I really hope he does as well in the future as he has been doing since he was only a young boy.
