Cris Miller is the sole driving force behind Silver Screen, playing and producing everything on his recordings. Gossamer touches abound throughout his debut album “the greatest story never told” on clairecords, with a fluid guitar sound reminiscent of COCTEAU TWINS, married to a gentle pop sensibility very near to the sounds of bands like THE SMITHS or IAN BROUDIE of THE LIGHTNING SEEDS, and, indeed: artists of past decades on the adored Sarah Records label . Cris’s voice is sweet and pure. It carries an air of conviction while retaining a sound of innocence. The result of all these factors is a record filled with songs of love and loss, plaintive in tone, yet never mired in hopelessness. A follow up record to the debut is now finished and slated for release, entitled “when you and I were very young”.
