Analogue Island, July 2009:

“An amazing band with a truly amazing sound… echoes of Hawkwind, with a dash of Portishead. Violins and Theremins and much more.”

Shindig Magazine, July 2008:

“The Silver Wizard Project, also from London, would be included here if only because they have a kraut-psych song called ‘Psychedelic Fucking Machine’. The real ale-supping five-piece group seem too rural in appearance for the capital, but then the sound does have a hard, almost metalic edge to the songs that I reckon puts them in the rarely spotted gothic-folk-psych genre. With their violins, theremin, and outlandish stage attire, the ‘fairytale rock collective’ are most definitely out there on their own, and all power to them for that.”

Tamworth Herald, June 2008:

“…it was down to out-of-town band The Silver Wizard Project to open up the show. The band, who had travelled all the way up from London, played a well received and performed set of psychedelic folk rock, containing ancient poems revived from years gone by and other off-the-wall ideas. The combination of the theremin and violin gave a haunting depth to their sound and, as a whole, they produced something entirely different for a local show.”

Shot By Both Sides, March 2008:

“Armed with a fantastically opulent name and a natty line in stage attire, The Silver Wizard Project are the most admirably unfashionable group in existence. Their girl/boy vocals and ’fairytale rock’ sound has roots in the prog-folk of early Hawkwind, short stories and narrations are a regular feature of their set, and they have a theremin. Frankly, otherworldly.”
