Silver Side Up is a musical Nickelback tribute formed in February, 2024 and based in Houston, TX, USA.

A Nickelback tribute ... really? Heck Yeah!!!

We've all heard that Nickelback is a band that everyone loves to hate. Saying that someone likes Nickelback is a straight-up insult, all while they've managed to sell millions of albums around the world. What's the deal?

One Finnish researcher investigated: why do "music critics" love to hate on Nickelback? Her study titled “'Hypocritical Bullshit Performed Through Gritted Teeth': Authenticity Discourses in Nickelback's Album Reviews in Finnish Media,” argues that it's a matter of authenticity. Critics don't see Nickelback as genuine. Oh yeah, the guys in Nickelback give a flying f#%& what the "critics" say. LOL!

On March 13th, 2024 Nickelback made their first appearance at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo. The 75,000 people in the stands, singing along to EVERY song, were a clear sign to us: a Nickelback tribute would go over HUGE! Plus the songs are just friggin fun to play!
