The Silo Nightclub, now a NON-SMOKING venue, has been a landmark for live music & DJs right outside Reading, Pennsylvania for decades.  A two-floor, 1100 person venue,  it has hosted such notables as The Black Crowes, The Disco Biscuits, JM2, The New Deal, Future Rock, Quagmire Swim Team, & the New Riders of the Purple Sage, to name a few.

I plan to utilize this venue as much as possible,  mixing up the trend there, as recently The Silo has only been hosting punk/hardcore/metal shows & hip-hop/rap/DJ nights.  I feel the most up-and-coming genres (jam-bands & dance-tronica) have been overlooked lately at The Silo &  I certainly hope to change that.  It is a large, enjoyable venue with a hotel directly next to it, and another brand new one less than a mile away.

There will be times where the building will be split, with separate events on each floor.  I want to showcase some premier DJs spinning house, trance, breaks, & all that dirty dirty techno on the 2nd floor (only).

On the first floor (only), I plan to showcase the up  and coming jambands, bluegrass, & dance-tronica that have blown away concertgoers at shows I booked at the Brass Lantern, including the premier Reading based acts.  Based on availability, I may have these type of shows on the 2nd floor (only) if it is feasible (in terms of setting up production up there).

Utilizing both floors for one show, I plan to step it up a notch and bring in those acts that have been “too big” for the Brass & for most venues in downtown Reading.  Look for the premier jam-bands, bluegrass, dance-tronica & otherwise coming soon.
