"2020 was a strange year to say the least, but it gave rise to this album. 'Silver' is a collection of songs I wrote during the pandemic when somehow life had a little more breathing room and space for creativity. It was also during this time I connected with producer Sam Phay and mix/master engineer Peter Holz who helped bring this project to life," said Nuria.

"The songs on this album delve into an inner world of heartache, memories and personal reflection. The setting of the associated imagery was shot inside the grand old Hobart Theatre Royal which for me resonated with the grandiose emotions the music draws from. The feature track 'Silver' observes a moment of intense romantic love and the eternal feeling of youth it holds."

Nuria is the stage name of Tasmanian indie pop artist Anna Maynard. Pronounced NOO-ree-ah, this name from her childhood meaning "Fire of the Lord '' speaks of passion, boldness and captures a spirit unhindered by the constraints of growing up. Her story is reflected in the depths of her songwriting - a childhood of fantasy, a tumultuous adolescence of desires, insecurities and self discovery, the "sensible" choice of a day job as a doctor and all the while a burning and insatiable desire to create and connect through music.
