Biography

Early life

Silver was born in Seattle, Washington on July 17, 1958, to Samuel and Emmogene (Jean) Silver.[2] She is the oldest of three children.[1][2]

Career

Silver started working as a music manager in 1983.[3] Her first clients were the bands The U-Men and First Thought.[3] In 1985, Silver met Soundgarden, whose lead vocalist was her then-boyfriend Chris Cornell, and in the following year she started managing the band.[3] Back then, Silver was also managing Screaming Trees.[3]

At the same time that she was managing Rock bands, Silver was also the manager of a John Fluevog shoe store in Seattle.[6] The store would become famous years later for selling the Dr. Martens boots worn by several members of Grunge bands from Seattle.[6] One of Silver's co-workers at the store at the time was Kevin Martin, lead vocalist of Candlebox.[6]

In 1988, Silver met music manager Kelly Curtis.[3] Curtis and his friend Ken Deans owned a company, and Deans was the manager of the band Alice in Chains.[3] Deans gave Silver a cassette tape of Alice in Chains and she liked it.[7] Silver then went to an Alice in Chains concert and thought they were fun and very energetic.[7] When Curtis became interested in working with the band Mother Love Bone, Deans decided that he didn't want to work with Alice in Chains anymore, so he offerered the managing job to Silver and Curtis,[7] who started co-managing the band.[3][7] Some time later, Curtis started managing the band Pearl Jam, and Silver became the sole manager of Alice in Chains.[3]

In 1996, Silver was featured on the Doug Pray documentary Hype! talking about the Seattle music scene.[8]

Among Silver's clients in the 90s were the bands Hater,[9] Inflatable Soule,[10] Crackerbox,[11] Sweet Water,[11] Sponge,[11] singer Kristen Barry,[4][12] and producer Terry Date.[4]

In 1998, Silver retired from the music business to concentrate on her family.[3] In 2005, Silver and Deborah Semer formed a new company in Seattle, Atmosphere Artist Management. Their first client was the music and dance group Children of the Revolution.[13]

Alice in Chains was inactive from 1996 until 2005. After lead vocalist Layne Staley died of a drug overdose in 2002,[14] the band only performed in public again in February 2005 for a benefit concert with guest vocalists in Seattle.[15] After that experience, the band called Silver and said they wanted to tour as Alice in Chains again.[16]

Since 2009, Silver co-manages Alice in Chains along with David Benveniste and his company Velvet Hammer Management.[17]

Other ventures

Since 2009, Silver co-owns the club The Crocodile in Seattle along with Alice in Chains' drummer Sean Kinney,[18][19] Capitol Hill Block Party co-founder Marcus Charles,[20] Peggy Curtis,[20] and Portugal. The Man guitarist Eric Howk.[20]

In 2013, Rolling Stone named The Crocodile as one of the best clubs in America, ranked at No. 7.[21]

Personal life

Silver majored in Chinese at the University of Washington.[22]

In 1985, Silver started dating Chris Cornell, the lead vocalist of Soundgarden, a band that Silver started managing a year later,[22][23][3] and they got married in 1990.[24] Cornell wrote the song "Moonchild" from his debut solo album Euphoria Morning for Silver.[25] The couple's first and only child, a daughter named Lillian Jean, was born in June 2000.[26] The couple divorced in 2004.[27]

When asked about his heroes during a press conference in 2002, Alice in Chains' vocalist and guitarist Jerry Cantrell named Silver as one of his heroes.[28] Cantrell also thanked Silver for being one of the people who helped him get into rehab during his speech at the MusiCares MAP Fund Benefit on May 31, 2012, where he was awarded the Stevie Ray Vaughan Award.[29]
