Led by Cheryl and Patrick Cleary, Silver Phial performs cosmic American music that touches on folk, country, rock 'n' roll and psychedelia.

"See and hear why Silver Phial have been called 'A trio whose power is in the tasteful understatement of it’s unobtrusive arrangements: cool classic pop music for dancing or dreaming'."

Our version of the song "The Better Side of Life" is on the Emitt Rhodes tribute album.

"If you are looking for a new group whose tunes can make (almost) anyone feel instantly better, look no further than Silver Phial. This psychedelic folk band not only sounds like they are from the 60s, but some of their photos look like album covers from my mother's old record collection. Listening to them makes me want to wear wildflowers in my hair and wish for summer.

Their track 'Aeronautique' (released on their EP from last year) sounds like a long-lost track from The Mamas & The Papas, while 'Into The Light' sounds more like a female-fronted version of The Yardbirds."

"I got there early (to Club Spaceland, Silverlake, California) and caught Silver Phial, a folk group with a girl drummer (yay!)! The harmonies were fabulous and I was really digging the funky undertones of some songs and the rock and roll feel of the others. The lead singer slash drummer Cheryl has an amazing voice and even though it was early and people definitely weren’t drunk yet, they somehow got the crowd moving."

"Like a vision from a fairytale: SILVER PHIAL

Hey, there, wanna lighten up? I defy you to hold on to that existential angst once the sound of Silver Phial wafts your way. 'Aeronautique' (from their ep released last year) is my favorite example: I put this song on and it’s an instant mood lifter. It’s like some Victorian vintage fantasy flying machine powered by the sweet side of sixties psychedelia. Lead vocalist Cheryl sings sweet n clear while sitting behind the drum kit providing the propulsion for the band, flanked by Patrick and Scott on guitar and bass. A trio whose power is in the tasteful understatement of it’s unobtrusive arrangements: cool classic pop music for dancing or dreaming."
