Milwaukee’s Jude Kinnear Sings Rock ‘n Twang With the Silvertones

Milwaukee WI, April 25, 2007: The Silvertones, the Milwaukee-based twang and roots band, announced that singer Jude Kinnear has joined as both a lead and harmony vocalist. A long-standing part of the Milwaukee music scene, Jude is well known as the female half of the Americana and roots duo Fred & Ethel. Having played the Wisconsin club and festival scene for over fifteen years, Jude brings a new strong, soulful voice and on-stage chemistry to the Silvertones.

Reviewers have described her as a “force of nature with an honest voice capable of a genuine elegance and soulful clarity or a smoldering huskiness.”

Rick Walters, lead singer and guitarist, said, “we couldn’t be happier about having Jude join the band. She adds an entirely new dimension and range to the group that is truly exciting. You are coming to see us next month, aren’t you?”

Jude Kinnear’s debut with The Silvertones will be on the evening of May 12 at John Hawks Pub in Milwaukee. Visit www.silvertonesband.com for more details and upcoming dates.
