MUSICAL SHADOWS BY ALAN LEWIS SILVA

Musical Shadows is a book of my songs from 2003 to 2016, which corresponds to 20 albums of my music. Musical Shadows is over 50,000 words of poetry arranged in alphabetical, alphanumerical order. It collectively tells the story of the millennial generation adapting to the climate of southern California in the information age. It is indie folk music, with elements of rock, blues, fado, and reggae.

Many of the songs feature an 6/8 rhythm, which is uncommon by contemporary music standards. The 6/8 is where some of the reggae influence comes from. The songs are highly lyrical and intended to create mental images by the listener’s own imagining and interpretation of the words in a story. Some songs have a grunge and alternative rock feel as well. Musical Shadows has stylings of fado culture, blues, and the singer-songwriter mantle.

Alan Lewis Silva's complete music catalog of original albums have been chronologically published from 2004 to 2023 in the following sequence: Boa Sina, Ao Vivo, Carlos Terceira, Mystery House, Rose Blood Volumes I & II, Gypsy Songs, Big Green Country, Mountain Stairs, Changing the Guards, Aviary Tomb, Hunters and Hunted, Numas Estrelas, Golden Palace, Flower People, Beach Songs, California Authors, I Been Living, Alan Silva, JESUS, J2C 1-7, Songs for Mercedes, Ash City, Hot Cow, The Moon Was Blue, Escapade, Glint Art, Blues Change, Playland California, and Summer Girls.

Musical Shadows in the 20 album format and book format further includes songs previously unreleased, such as previously unpublished songs, songs from EP’s, and live recordings.

My albums beyond Musical Shadows include Summer Girls, Playland California, J2C 1-7 Soundtrack, The Moon Was Blue, and Blues Change, and more to come.
