Joel Silbersher is a musician from Melbourne, Australia, who was the singer and guitar player for rock and roll band, GOD (1986–1989).[1][2] GOD had a minor but enduring hit with "My Pal," a song written by Silbersher.[3] Since its release in 1988, "My Pal" has been covered by bands such as Magic Dirt, Violent Soho, Bonnie Prince Billy, and Peabody. At the closing of Melbourne's Tote Hotel,[4] Silbersher and The Drones played "My Pal" as the very last song.[5][6]
Silbersher went on to form Hoss and Tendrils, also working with Tex Perkins and Dirty Three.[7] He has recorded as a solo artist, releasing the album Greasy Lens on King Crab Records in October 2002.[8]
