GET TO KNOW MIKE AND THE MOONPIES (SILVERADA).
The Austin band formerly called Mike and the Moonpies adopted the name Silverada in 2024. Frontman Mike Harmeier’s writing and the group’s finely connected playing remain the link across the change. Cheap Silver and Solid Country Gold and One to Grow On show how far a dancehall-rooted band can stretch its arrangements without losing the patient swing and songcraft that first built its audience.
Pedal steel, guitar and a supple rhythm section create country music with room for soul and orchestral colour. The musicians’ sense of timing is as important as the lead vocal.

Years in Texas dancehalls and clubs shaped the band before national and international touring. The name change marks a chapter in that ongoing ensemble history, rather than an unrelated new artist.
