Speaking about it, the band’s vocalist Michelle Hindriks says:
“‘Call me Silent’ is a personal song about my experience with autism and learning to embrace this part of myself.“

ABOUT CIEL
CIEL met on the South Coast of England where they distilled their differing backgrounds and influences into grunge-pop finery. Straddling the creative baggage of three countries’ scenes, whilst not really feeling like they belong to any of them, CIEL’s music has a nagging yet fresh, dark and sometimes quietly glorious quality to it. Drawing influences from 90’s grunge, goth and shoegaze, the band’s upcoming work (produced by Blood Red Shoes’ Steven Ansell) sees them reflect a moodier and grittier direction, yet still maintaining their established melodic pop essence. The band will perform at Gold Sounds Festival in LEEDS on the 4th of May.
