notes
Silver City, the debut album from Sarah Borges, is a stunning set of songs that explores American music in all its many aspects. You'll hear everyone from Hank Williams to The Pixies in Borges' songs but it never sounds forced. Legendary producer Paul Q. Kolderie (Radiohead, Uncle Tupelo, Hole) pulls it all together into a muscular, rocking sound that has a sometimes surprisingly tender core.

Fresh sound!
author: ButchI really like the sounds - unlike other music on the radio these days. I heard one of SB & the BS' songs on local college radio and bought both CDs. Silver City arrived first, and it's been in my CD player since. Interesting stories make for interesting songs on this CD.
A totally incredible CD!
author: Lisa GillespieEach song on this CD is awesome! I've had to purchase 3 copies of the CD. Each time I lend the CD out, the person refuses to give it back. She's that good!
Fabulous
author: LuiseI heard Sarah and the band for the first time last summer, bought the CD that night, and have been hooked ever since.
AWESOME!! Time for another CD
author: JakeWhat a voice!! Could listen to your voice/music for hours. We need more of your music.
An album with no filler
author: GaryI saw Sarah at the Hillside Music Festival and had to get her cd since it sold out. It has quickly become one of my favourites and also a rare album where all the songs are great. Can't wait for another album or a visit to Toronto.
great cd
author: TrentSarah gives a high energy live performance and even though this is a studio album that energy comes through loud and clear. Smart lyrics and fantastic guitar.
Can't wait till a live album.
author: Kevin DanelsonIt was really good! I heard it first on XM Live. I was so impressed I bought it immediately. I guess I was expecting the quality's of "Live Sound", "Raw"! Still impressed but really would love a "Live Album". Kevin, Scottdale, AZ.
this cd is unbelieveable
author: paulif you dont own this cd, then you have to buy one. it will change your life.
This is such a great CD and the sound draws you in!
author: chrisSarah Borges has a great voice! The sound blends in so many different levels of music, I enjoy listening to this CD anytime of the day.
Wow...
author: Ale VillegasAbsolutely amazing!! Love the music and the sound of her voice! very fresh! If you've never seen her playing live, you MUST!! there's no effort on her side when she sings, it just comes out so natural it makes me jealous! :-)
Great roots album
author: Ed GoodsteinVery solid fine stuff-- memorable songs & a compelling roots rock/blues/alt. country voice IMO. And there's some edge to her material a bit like Amy Rigby even at times, as well as Joy Lynn White & Bonnie Raitt. Very accomplished debut I think.
