V★Silver: A grunge heart in a disco ball.

V★Silver is the New York–based shimmering alter ego of singer, songwriter, and record producer Vanessa Silberman. Her music fuses prism-colored alt-pop with pastel-glossed, blooming melodies, radiant synths, cinematic textures, and raw, honest lyrics that build tension through heart-forward emotion.

Her debut single “Chasing Magic” marked the launch of the project, a heart-charged pop gem crafted for anyone who believes in chasing the unseen. Co-produced and mixed by Grammy-nominated engineer Justin Hergett (Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, Shiny Toy Guns) alongside Silberman, the track introduced listeners to a sonic world of longing, love, and transformation.

Across her self-produced releases (with the exception of “Chasing Magic”), V★Silver explores emotional duality — transforming heartbreak into shimmer and gold while embracing vulnerability, self-acceptance, and the courage to live authentically. Musically, the first EP blends ’70s and ’80s anthemic pop influences with dream pop textures and modern production.

These songs form Side A of her EP The Cost of Light — the brighter half of a two-part project exploring empowerment, beauty, ambition, and emotional connection, while acknowledging the sacrifices required to evolve and live fully in the light.

Side B, Everything I Couldn’t Say, part of the forthcoming full-length album The Cost of Light and Everything I Couldn’t Say, explores a rawer, more bare-bones and quieter side of Vanessa’s sound, using acoustic guitar, country-inspired textures, hypnotic percussion, haunting strings, airy synths, harps, and at times just Vanessa accompanied by guest cellist Michelle Rose.

The arrangements support an empowering yet vulnerable message — from embracing individuality, to questioning politics, to speaking your truth, and softly letting go of heartbreak.

Together, The Cost of Light and Everything I Couldn’t Say (out this summer) form a full album built around dual truths: light and shadow, empowerment and vulnerability, shimmer and bare-souled honesty — created for dreamers chasing hope, healing, and the next version of themselves.

Outside of the V★Silver project, Silberman toured extensively as a solo artist, performing over 800 shows between 2015–2020 as well as put out a numerous of EPs and singles. She is the founder of A Diamond Heart Production, a label established in 2014 that has released more than 140 records, and is an established record producer and engineer. Silberman is also one half of the cinematic alt-pop duo Lovecolor, alongside actor and musician Ryan Carnes.
