SONGBROKER SONG OF THE DAY - EVAN SILVA : YOU DANCE I SING

Soulful New Zealand singer Evan Silva paid his dues on both sides of the Tasman in the mid to late 1960s, playing Motown influenced rhythm and blues and living life on the edge, until a spiritual encounter set him on a course to become a different kind of soul man.

Silva, who has sung on a handful of singles, dozens of jingles and recorded eleven albums since his dramatic Christian conversion in 1973, has been called New Zealand’s soul man. His silky smooth delivery has been likened to Al Green, whose songs he covered in his early club repertoire.
