Adam Silvestri, known professionally as Radiator King, is an American punk/blues singer-songwriter and guitarist from Boston, Massachusetts. He is the lead vocalist and sole member of the act, occasionally using a supporting band while on tour and in studio. When asked about the name Radiator King, Silvestri stated that it came from when he "titled a friend’s painting and it was suggested to him that he use that name for his next band".[1]

Silvestri has been recognized for his "rough, heart-wrenching vocals" and gritty sound.[2][3] Established officially in 2011, Radiator King has released three studio albums, Launching Day, Document Untold, and A Hollow Triumph After All.[4]

Radiator King most recently toured this summer in support of A Hollow Triumph After All. During off days, Silvestri wrote and recorded new songs for a future release. Independent record label, SoundEvolution Music (SI, NY) will be releasing three of these tracks on an upcoming 7" vinyl single.[5]
