NORWICH – Up and coming Syracuse rockers Silent Fury are returning to town and guitarist-lead vocalist Mick Fury says he and his bandmates are excited for another opportunity to bring their personal brand of hard-hitting rock-n-roll back to Norwich, kicking-off things off at 9:30 p.m. Friday on the Blarney Stone Pub stage.
Said Fury, “We love playing small towns like Norwich because all our die-hard friends and fans come out and support the band, and we always have a killer time.”
The band, which features Fury, bassist-vocalist Joe Nasty and new addition, drummer Greg “Goose” LaPoint, has opened for the likes of the Goo Goo Dolls, Bret Michaels, the Spin Doctors, Warrant, Vertical Horizon and Vince Neil, of Motley Crue fame, in the past. More recently, the group’s single, “Exit Wounds,” was featured in the motion picture “Underworld: Awakening,” starring Kate Beckinsale. On June 6 and 7, the hard-rocking trio will open for the band Crossfade at the Lost Horizon in Syracuse, and rock band Saliva at Monirae’s in Pennellville – part of the group’s Two Days of Fury Celebration.
Formed four years ago, Silent Fury will have copies of its debut CD, Sunday Stiletto, and its most recent release, Girl In My Head, for sale and will perform a number of songs contained on both. Another of the band’s singles, “Girl In My Head,” has been receiving serious airplay over the radio waves, added Fury. The disc itself, said Examiner.com, is “an impressive CD both in production and music. It is polished, radio friendly, and makes you realize that these guys can and will go places.”
The ultimate goal, looking ahead, is to headline the Syracuse Carrier Dome,” said Fury.
“How fun would that be?” laughed the guitarist, who added the addition of Goose, one of “the best drummers in central New York,” brings “a ton of fire to the stage.”
