THAT1GUY AND THE MAGIC PIPE

Mike Silverman aka That1Guy has set himself apart as a true one-of-a-kind talent that rivals any other artist. His pioneering main instrument, The Magic Pipe, a monstrosity of metal, strings, and electronics, facilitates the dynamic live creation of music and magic in ways only That1Guy can conjure. Expect to see magic integrated into an already clever performance. By incorporating magic seamlessly into his live shows, he has legitimately achieved an all inclusive audio/visual performance unlike anything experienced before. "So much of my music has miraculous qualities to it because itʼs hard to tell whatʼs going on. There are lots of slights of hand and sonic misdirection. It feels like I was meant to do magic".

"Iʼve always wanted to sound different and have my own sound. I was headed that way on the bass, but for me to fully realize what I was hearing in my head sonically I was going to have to do it my way". His influential and innovative double bass style eventually evolved into what we see today as That1Guy and ʻThe Magic Pipeʼ. As his story continues to develop, Billboard has famously noted, "In the case of Mike Silvermanʼs slamming, futuristic funk act... the normal rules of biology just donʼt apply."
