The Silverline - I Don't Like Whiskey

Catherine and Michael Lehnen are The Silverline. Coming from colourful yet very different backgrounds, they found each other through their love of music and their desire to make a difference. The Silverline are ‘Country Music with a Cause’ writing authentic original songs with relevance and impact.

Together Catherine and Michael bring a mature and genuine perspective to their music, by sharing their own unique life experiences and by walking alongside others with compassion and understanding. Their introduction to award winning producer Simon Johnson paved the way for The Silverline to record their first original album Walking The Wall, released internationally in September 2021.

It is an album grounded in exceptional vocal performances, award winning songwriting and quicksilver harmonies with each single released to date making a huge impression on the Australian country music scene. To their credit, they continue to achieve strong radio successes including two #1 hits on the National Top 40 Country Songs Chart.

The Silverline also raise awareness through their music for incredible organisations such as BUY A BALE and THE EXODUS FOUNDATION.

Immersed in the Nashville scene, songwriting has always been a passion for singer and multi-instrumentalist Michael. Being a well-known radio personality in Muscle Shoals Alabama and his extensive engagements as a studio session musician, he has rubbed shoulders with country music greats like Shania Twain, Garth Brooks, Randy Travis and Hank Williams Jnr. Experiencing the grittiness of the American music industry, Michael has some great stories to tell.

As a session player, as well as recording with the big stars, a highlight for Michael was performing on the “Duets” movie soundtrack, featuring Huey Lewis and Gwyneth Paltrow. Catherine grew up in Sydney and has performed extensively Australia wide in vocal groups including an Andrews’ Sisters Tribute band which celebrated strong vocal harmonies and worked alongside Aussie legend Barry Crocker. Prior to The Silverline, Catherine toured with the Australian Army band performing live on TV, radio and as a session vocalist. Recently she enjoyed the experience of being an elite finalist on Season 7 of The Voice.
