This is where my in-depth silverchair biography will be. I'm going to move it from the main Young Modern Station page.
Silverchair are a alternative rock band from Newcastle, Australia. The three members are Daniel Johns (vocals and guitar), Ben Gillies (drums), and Chris Joannou (bass guitar). Before their debut, Silverchair were called Innocent Criminals and had a fourth member, Tobin Finnane, who was said to have played rhythm guitar. However, he left in 1993. The band got their debut in 1994 when they won the SBS nomad competition "Pick Me!" and got to record a music video. Their song, Tomorrow, was on their first EP, which sold thousands of records. Silverchair's first album, Frogstomp, released on the 27th of March 1995, was a huge success in Australia and around the world. The members were 15 and 16 at the time. In 1996, Silverchair opened for the Red Hot Chili Peppers at Madison Square Garden in New York.
