Silver Relics is a band formed by New York-based songwriter Alex Sepassi.

Founded as an art project in late 2017, the band blends modern elements with classic rock influences. Sepassi’s ‘songs first’ mentality brings a rooted perspective to a contemporary landscape.

Beginning at age 10, Sepassi actively honed a raw talent as a vocalist, performer, and by his late teens, a prolific songwriter. Raised on the iconic British songwriters of the 1960s and 1970s, Sepassi later discovered the technicolor experiments of the psychedelics and brooding ’80s indie rock. He deftly incorporates the best of these influences while adhering to a classical “songs first” philosophy.

Sepassi was introduced to New York producer Howie Beno at his 2016 South by Southwest showcase in Austin, TX. The two connected instantly, discussing a mutual admiration in each others’ past work and forging plans to record in the immediate future. Silver Relics and Beno began recording Sepassi’s material shortly thereafter, on what would later become the bands first album.

Following a successful tour of Ireland and the UK in the summer of 2019, the band enlisted the refined talents of English-born bassist and composer, Mark Crozer (The Jesus and Mary Chain). After working together for sometime, Crozer brought his JAMC rhythm counterpart, Brian Young in on drums. The band is currently in the studio recording their sophomore album set to release in 2021.

Silver Relics released their debut album Generic., May 17, 2019 on Farmadelica and InGrooves.
