The Silent Years play Schubas tonight as part of UR Chicago's monthly AMPLIFY series. We dig these kids from Detroit, but you don't need to take our word for it since the band is offering it's debut online, totally for free. If you like folksy and rockin' pop, we highly recommend it.

And we won't even mention the fact that the singer is obviously a huge Jeff Buckley fan. Oh wait, we did, didn't we?
