Zero Mile presents Silverada with The Pink Stones at Terminal West in Atlanta. This all ages show spotlights a band in transition and full stride, evolving from its years as Mike and the Moonpies into a renewed chapter under the Silverada name. Led by Mike Harmeier with drummer Taylor Englert, guitarist Catlin Rutherford, bassist Omar Oyoque, and steel guitarist Zachary Moulton, the group built its reputation in Austin dancehalls before carrying Texas roots to places like Abbey Road Studios and the Grand Ole Opry. Their newest chapter shares the name Silverada and marks a ninth release that pairs vivid storytelling with sweeping pedal steel and a rhythm section that ranges from country shuffle to rock and roll drive.

Recorded at Yellow Dog Studios with longtime producer Adam Odor, the material tips its hat to earlier eras while pushing forward, from Stubborn Son featuring fiddle by Gene Elders to Doing It Right with classic slow-dance warmth and Load Out chronicling blue-collar grind. Harmeier’s recent writing grew out of late nights in a backyard studio and a stack of books, from Jeff Tweedy’s insights on songwriting to astronomy and sci-fi, fueling a collective leap toward something bigger in the studio and onstage.
