Silk is the new project from Virgins guitarist/songwriter, Michael Smyth, with Michael as the sole contributor in Silk, he is responsible for the writing, performing and recording of the music.

The result is a sound defined by swathes of dreamy distortion juxtaposed against beautiful shimmering passages while Michael's vocals are treated as a texture amongst the emotive soundscape. This creates a wall of sound for the listener to bathe in, equal parts heavy as it is floaty and ethereal.
