SILO - The SILO NATION SILO is a hard rock band based in Calgary, Alberta Canada. SILO was formed in early 2006, by Clay Watson, the current lead singer. After struggling to find like-minded musicians, Cash contacted an old friend, Mat Rapuano, about joining the project. From there, Rapuano, now the current percussionist, obtained Jordan Hogan (bass) Clayton Firmstone (lead guitar) and Mitch Webb (rythum guitar).

SILO's first release, a self-titled EP, quicly gained noteraity and was featured on local radio stations. The PORTAL Magazine featured SILO in their December 2010 issue.
