Silvera has sung with amazing Jazz contemporary artists Russell Malone, Christian McBride, Roy Hargrove, Ira Sullivan and the Lionel Hampton rhythm section to name a few.

Silvera is known as a vocal stylist and storyteller with a warm and crystal clear sound that shows off her almost four octave range. She has toured Jazz clubs and festivals throughout Europe and promoted her first two albums “Sojourner” and “Because there is You” which showcase her ability to swing both with a traditional trio and in a duo collaboration which included the renowned Cuban guitarist, Jorge Garcia and seven time Latin Grammy winner Federico Britos on violin.
