A Silver Lining (2)

In part 2 of the Silverchair story, it’s 2007 and the hit rock band from Newcastle is back at the top of the charts with a new album and hit single. But as they tour their fifth album, the relationships between band members are stretched to breaking point. Finally, in 2011, the band calls it quits. Drummer Ben Gillies and bass player Chris Joannou struggle to adapt to life after Silverchair. Chris is running a restaurant when he is hit with a devastating diagnosis. Ben confronts his alcoholism and gradually conquers his anxiety. Now the duo has co-written a book and say the process has helped them heal some of their old wounds.
