Today, celebrated band Silverada (formerly known as Mike and the Moonpies) releases “Radio Wave,” the latest single from their upcoming self-titled album, out June 28. Silverada represents a new chapter in the band’s journey.
It not only signifies the title of the boldest release in the group’s illustrious career but also serves as the moniker for the revitalized band. With Silverada, the band has hit their stride, and the name change reflects how they have leveled up their songwriting and honed their distinctive sound.
On “Radio Wave,” Silverada captures the spirt of the open road and the landscapes of the heartland. Powerful storytelling and expansive soundscapes are surrounded by captivating hooks and inspired atmospherics. Watch the “Radio Wave” video HERE and listen to the track via DSPs HERE.
Mike and the Moonpies’ transformation from playing in Austin honky-tonks to performing on iconic stages like the Grand Ole Opry and recording at Abbey Road Studio showcases their immense talent and commitment. By rebranding as Silverada, the band signals a new era to their fans and the music industry. Silverada combines timeless twang with contemporary dynamics, delivering poignant, character-driven lyrics alongside rich pedal steel, classic country shuffles, and high-energy rock & roll. This rebranding reflects their readiness to challenge conventions and explore new musical territories.
The band are currently on their Silverada Roadshow tour and will celebrate the album release in Nashville at The Ryman Auditorium on July 5. A list of tour dates is below and on their website HERE.
