About Silversun Pickups

Silversun Pickups formed in 2000 and quickly became a staple in the east-central L.A. music scene, even naming themselves after a liquor store across from the Silverlake Lounge on Sunset Boulevard. They honed their craft in clubs and worked tirelessly to get their EP Pikul distributed to the masses. 

The band's breakthrough came with the release of their debut album, Carnavas, through Dangerbird Records, an independent label in the area. The first single, "Lazy Eye," immediately attracted attention, drawing Smashing Pumpkins comparisons and catapulting the band into the spotlight. 

Silversun Pickups’ music, characterized by a blend of shoegaze, dream pop, and alternative rock, has been featured in various video games and television shows, expanding its reach. However, they have never licensed their music for commercials, a testament to their indie ethos. 

A nomination for a Best New Artist Grammy in 2010 further solidified the group’s place in the music industry, but regardless of awards and accolades, they always stay true to their roots. The future promises more creative endeavors for Silversun Pickups, as they continue to establish their legacy.
