Mention "Silver" in Fredericksburg, and minds rightly run to development. But there's more to the Silver family that all it has done to help our region grow. Deborah Silver is a singer -- a Grammy nominated singer -- who is fusing the Big Band sound of Count Basie with the classic rock music that is the soundtrack on many people's youth. Did we mention she has a fan in Rod Stewart? Silver joins the NDP crew to talk music and more on this week's podcast. Subscribe to The Fredricksburg Advance our daily newspaper!
