Silveroller has kicked off their 2025 tour dates supporting The Karma Effect right now, then with DeWolff from 15th – 18th April, then the Andy Taylor Group in May.
Vocalist Jonnie Hodson reflected on recent events leading in to the shows, commenting:
“Last year started so well for us, the tour with DeWolff after releasing the At Dawn was incredible, then signing with our agent, Midnight Mango. Everything seemed to be falling into place. We were writing for a new record; then out of the blue we had an enforced line-up change. It was a shock to say the least.
“Everything we had worked towards had started to pay off, then it felt like we were back to square one. Some friends in the industry gave me a good pep talk, ‘find the guys who want it and push forward’. So that’s what we have done.
I can confidently say that the lads who have come in have worked really hard, and are committed to what we’re doing. Finding the guitar player was hardest, we toured last year with Joey, but for one reason or another it wasn’t viable longer term. Then we went back to the drawing board. We auditioned some great players, but when Kenny came through the door it felt like we were just at a rehearsal, not auditioning a new guy. He immediately fit really well. So, we offered him the gig, and he’s got just the right amount of crazy in him to say yes. So, all the way from Boston, Massachusetts, Kenny Tashjy joins Silveroller.”
The band’s line-up now features Hodson (Vocals), Kenny Tashjy (Guitar), Joe Major (Drums), Dylan Evans (Bass) and Lucas Tadini (Keyboards & organ).
“We’re a proudly international outfit, two Liverpolitans, an Englishman, a Brazilian-Italian and now an American. We’ll be out on the road in the UK and Europe this year playing songs from our debut record and we’ll be working on material for our next release, our first full length album,” Hodson added. “We can’t thank the fans enough, who have followed our journey so far. It hasn’t been a long journey, but there has been some pretty big bumps in the road. We can’t wait to see you all again. With peace, Rev. Jonnie Hodson”.
