With their debut album “can’t hang,” Ben Silby has created a lush, emotionally layered soundtrack to modern queer life. Represented by Decent Music PR, the project is equal parts art-pop experiment and deeply relatable diary entry. It’s a bold, brilliant introduction to an artist unafraid to be entirely themselves.
From the start, Silby lays their heart bare with lyricism that’s unflinchingly honest. Whether it’s processing a fleeting California romance in “blue” or wrestling with overstimulation in the title track, each song feels like a confession turned into a chorus. And somehow, even the heaviest moments shine with levity and musical charm.
The album’s production is a perfect match for Silby’s voice—warm, weird, and full of intention. Every beat, glitch, and vocal bend helps tell the story. “can’t hang” proves that vulnerability isn’t just powerful—it can also be incredibly cool. Silby is a singular voice in indie music, and this debut is a dazzling first chapter.
