Johnny Silver

Johnny Silver has got to be one of the nicest musicians around and we here at The Word Is Love would like to thank Johnny for his wonderful tribute to John Lennon. It is obvious when you meet Johnny that he is a fan, totally devoted to the music of that wonderful man, as well as a songwriter. His love of his music shows through each performance, he would have made John proud.
Quarry Bank Day was a special day for us all and we couldn't have asked for a better Lennon Tribute on that day than Johnny Silver.

We asked Johnny to fill out a profile for us and this is what he told The Word Is Love.

Name Johnny Silver

Favourite food Cheese Rolls. Salads. Vanilla pudding. Haribo goldbears.

Hobbies Holidays on the beach, having nights in with friends, sitting chatting on the sofa (like Liverpool) and drinking Diet Coke by the gallon full.
Best thing about Johnny & The Silver Beatles I really like strumming and singing my favourite John songs, and to see lots of lucky faces!!
Favorite Lennon Song 'I'm So Tired', 'When I Get Home', 'A Day In The Life'. And the solo stuff I love 'How' and a close second is 'Bless You'.
Most embarrassing moment There have been a lot (ha! ha!), but I find it very embarrassing after a song, when I have to speak in front of 1000's of fans and have no breath left!!
