The music of Quicksilver Night is probably best described as “distilled progressive rock” because it often incorporates elements of progressive rock such as exotic modes and composite meters but it generally eschews extended song structures in favor of a more concise songwriting style than is usually associated with the genre.

“Although I am deeply involved in every facet of all things Quicksilver Night at every step of the way the simple truth remains that I cannot – and do not – do this alone; I depend heavily upon the support of my song-specific collaborators and tech-savvy friends in order to bring this music into existence. I am immensely grateful for their support.” – Warren Russell

Quicksilver Night is guitarist/composer Warren Russell and a small but widening circle of musical collaborators around the world. Please see “Latest News” for the latest updates about ongoing projects and upcoming releases.

Words

One of four singles released from Missing Persons’ 1982 “Spring Sessions M” album, “Words” spoke to teenage me about mass media overload in deceptively sugar-coated terms and I loved it. I believe our version of “Words” maintains the original intention of the song, as I understand it: a protest against media overload and its promulgation of false narratives.
