Silas Short at Empire Garage

Date TBA

Silas Short is a Milwaukee born, Chicago-based singer and musician who produces his own music, synthesizing influences from soul and classic R&B. Silas Short's route to releasing music was nothing less than difficult, including shattering a bone in her left hand when he was 19. During the following hospital visit he was told by doctors he would never play again, determined, Silas continued to play through his injury until he was healed, subsequently developing his own self-described "Liquid-Style" guitar playing. Now at age 24, Silas hope to bring love and inspiration to everyone with his music.
