Mike Silvestri writes meaningful lyrics with smooth indie rock/pop overtones using acoustic guitar as the heart of the song. Performing emotionally captivating, and powerful vocals, he has been compared to the likes of Hozier meets John Mayer, but with a familiar and pleasant hint of folk/soul tonality.

Credits include: Original songs have been featured on shows: NBC’s "DATELINE", FOX's "REAL DIRTY DANCING USA", PARAMOUNT+ "TOONING OUT THE NEWS" (Stephen Colbert), PBS's "WEEKENDS WITH YANKEE".

Mike Silvestri has been anything, but slow in the music scene over his past 7 fully active years. Touring the USA, while playing just over 255 performances each year has turned him into a true veteran. In addition to live performance, his obsession for songwriting, and music production is very evident. He has written over 100 songs, and has self-released a 5-song EP, Mike Silvestri EP, on June 2017. His 2nd 5-song EP, Ida Clara, was released on June 2018, and a handful of singles.
