Silveroot
Full Measure
Silverado Records

Silveroot is Patrick Flynn, Emily Palen and Darryl Webb. They got together to play Flynn's American roots music and what a sweet sound it is.

The title song is a deftly played number, which shows how well they play together. Flynn sings a bittersweet lyric to a lovely melody. "Ain't The Man" is a country song plain and simple about growing older and still having some moves to impress the ladies with. Palen's violin really livens up the song. "Passing Glances" is soft and Flynn's vocal really shines. "Lifeline" is a good example of the group's dexterity as Flynn sings of sadness movingly. He as ever nails the subject and the melody is catchy and irresistible. Silveroot are really something special.
