2005 BIO

"Just heard a CD by newcomer Leigh Silver and are we ever impressed!
She is like a mix of Avril Lavigne meets Joan Jett but definitely has her own sound and style.
You can expect to hear more about this major musical talent."
-New Music Weekly, 1/23/04
"#2 Best Female Vocals of all time"
-Garageband.com
"It is my personal and somewhat professional opinion that Leigh Silver and the Bitterthings are and will be the next big thing."
-Black Angel Records
"The album conjures up visions of old No Doubt, new Liz Phair and old Green Day... cuteness and pop-hooks of Avril, with a bit punkier sound and 'less assembled by the record label feel',
-GirlPunk.net
Originally hailing from Philadelphia, Leigh spent her first few years in Los Angeles in Rock Star 101 as
a main bartender at LA's premier rock breeding ground, the Troubadour.
She is now a professional model.
Most recently chosen first out of 40 girls for Los Angeles, Playboy Girls of Golf.
Finals at the Playboy Mansion in March of 2006.
She was not created by producers of a "reality" show, or assembled in a "Franken-Popstar" type laboratory in sunny Florida. She honed her craft on the mean streets of Philadelphia using a trial-by-fire regiment to develop her incredible voice,
stage presence, and songwriting skills.
Instead of aspiring for a slot on the Mickey Mouse Klub, she packed-up and moved to LA.
Instead of singing live to a DAT, she formed a kick-ass live band,
The Bitterthings.
Within a few shows, Hollywood was abuzz about the new-kid-in-town, and soon after she was working on a debut EP with the respected musical forces of Tommy Stinson, (Replacements, Guns n' Roses) Chris Vrenna, (Nine Inch Nails)
John Dolmayan, (System of a Down) Mark Blasquez, (Line 6) and Bill Kennedy
Since, she has co-written 26 songs with legendary producer/songwriter Kim Fowley and has also worked with Lucky 7,
Shaun Kama (Damnation, Blood Junkies), and many others including vocals for the debut CD of the Line (Volcom).
