Lucas Ward Tells Retrofuturista About The Making of Silver Snails’ New Opus

Lucas Ward of The Silver Snails recently spoke with Retrofuturista about the band and the influences, marketing strategies, and processes behind new LP Speed of Light. In the interview, Ward explains how location has shaped their experiences as a band. “Our home in Romagna is nestled in idyllic vineyards, with sunflower fields and rolling hills, 20 miles inland from the Adriatic Sea… Given Speed of Light was recording 70% in Portland, OR, the natural and cultural backdrop of the Northwest served as secondary inspirations for the record, and Speed of Light is more ‘US centric than it is ‘Italy centric.'” Learn more here, and get the album spinning today.
