As we gear up for the release of ‘SHADOWTIME’ Sylvia has been imagining and re-imagining what shapes her live shows can take. Be it a solitary track act, a full live band or a mix of both. We never know which incarnation or which members it will be as life dictates the parameters. But we DO KNOW we have a date for the album release show. January 24, 2026 at The Monty in Los Angeles, CA.
As we gear up for the release of ‘SHADOWTIME’ on January 16, 2026 we have a few visualizers for you to get you familiar with what’s about to happen.
Did you catch Reggie Watts’ new special ‘Never Mind’ on Veeps in all its 90’s style glory? If you did, you might’ve caught Sylvia in the intro playing bass with Tim Young on Guitar and Darla Hawn on drums and Fred Armisen as the Manager. As a huge comedy fan, gigs like this are the best.
What a great time opening for the incomparably talented opera singer/literary/story telling performer Joseph Keckler. I’ve heard again and again that we make a great pairing now that his one-man show has inspired me to venture into solo territory incorporating my bass, vocals, productions as backing tracks and visuals. More to come!
Sylvia was tapped to compose music for Nomadica Orange Wine’s newest campaign, ‘Skin Contact’ under the direction of actress/director, Lake Bell. Hear and see the sultry result here…
“The Stones are associated with the chilling “Sister Morphine,” but Faithfull co-penned it and indie art-rocker Sylvia Black does it justice with a vivid, horn-injected interpretation.”
