This night was perfect. Our first Luv U Better at Crib felt very familiar. We all felt comfortable. Y’all walked in like you were at family’s house, made yourselves at home, grabbed a drank and sang the night away.
Mad love to Baby Indiglo for blessing us with a guest set and a taste of Silk R&B party. We’ll see you soon.

On our 7-year anniversary last week, we posted a note where we talked about how there was no way we could have gotten to this point if “we did it on our own” or were “self-made.” What started as an idea between Sabrina and WHERE’S NASTY, quickly involved some of our closest friends for feedback, conversation, and reassurance among many other things.
As our stay silent family and community has continued to grow we think of the Big Jays, Rhues, Bilindoffs, Allys, Ninos, and Kirbys, that we continue to meet and collaborate with to bring our visions to life. Beyond the talent or what they’ve been able to contribute to our team, these are the type of people who we’d find at a pop-up shop at Trade for hours, helping at the end of an Aurora night, and running to grab bags of ice during the middle of DAY TRILL. They let us know that the stay silent family will continue to grow.
To celebrate 7 years of stay silent, we’re releasing a capsule collection featuring the 7 Years In Champion Reverse Weave Hoodie and a PVD script New Era fitted hat on Saturday 12/21 at Trade Pop-Up and online on Sunday 12/22 at 12 PM EST. The 7 Years Hoodie will retail for $90 and the PVD x New Era fitted will be $50, both available in limited quantities.

Shit got busy and we didn't get to post these. Here are a few selects from Luv U Betters, Eggs Over, CHUNES and Spread Love Function during summer 2019.

The upstairs was jiggy. The basement was sweaty.

7 summers are officially under our belt and each year the energy, outcome + love multiplies tremendously. DAY TRILL started in 2013 with only 30 people and this August 24th, we had 3,500 come out to celebrate the ultimate New England summer holiday at India Point Park.
It's already the beginning of September and almost immediately it feels like a major shift and transition. We like holding on to the photographs and videos from Day Trill for a little while so that you can fully digest your experience, get your iPhone flicks off and be reminded of all of the fun you had right when you need it most. Think of these images as a little postcard we're sending you from your favorite place. With lots of love, stay silent.

This year, more than ever, we had a massive amount of photos to choose from to recap DAY TRILL. Our team has grown to include several photographers, who each capture a different energy and element that DAY TRILL has to offer. Instead of leaving hundreds of beautiful photos hidden in our Dropbox archives, we’ve decided to release recaps across the next few days featuring the many perspectives that were captured.
To kick off this series, we are starting with photos from Bilindoff. If you see him in the function, he’s probably dancing with you, singing + rapping along, and then next thing you know, he’s captured a photo of you. Bilindoff is the party and his photos are always a reflection of that.
Next time you see him in the party, give him that energy. You can find him on Instagram.com/Bilindoff
PVDFest 2019 was so fire. For the second year in a row, we took to the Main Stage in the middle of Kennedy Plaza for a pop-up party. The City-Wide Electric Slide was LEGENDARY! Nino killed it on the keys, that’s not regular! We’re still on a high and getting chills watching the videos.
Throughout the day, we were also able to have a few homies play sets on various stages, mad love to Charlie Tunes, Wattz, Beato and Corvah. Thank you to everyone who found the orange cart and copped some heat from our Go Outside capsule.
After the day time festivities, we had In Good Company, a post-PVDFest gathering at Trade Pop-Up to just get away from the madness and show our appreciation to some our closest friends, peers + supporters. Lena’s Kitchen cheffed up a really good all plant-based meal. Deadass didn’t know vegan pastelitos were a thing. Trust us, it’s not blasphemous. Appreciate our folks over at Red Bull for helping make that possible.
Supposedly this is the time of the year where things get spooky in your relationship resulting in you being single for the summer. We can pretend or we can be summer loves, it’s your call. Hopefully whoever you met at our Valentine’s Day edition is still going to link with you for sushi at some point.
Just some thoughts.

We took over the lobby of the Columbus Theatre. Some of y’all came three piece suited, some of y’all came tracksuit cozy. Still mindblown at the ‘Drive Slow’ edit that Wattz played.

Some punk ass snow really couldn’t scare us away from brunching. It’s still bizarre that we’re days away from Spring and mother nature is hitting us like this but champagne can cure most things. For our March installment of Eggs Over at Troop, we brought out DJ Slick Vick to play a guest set — she killed it!
Would also like to note that pictures look 100% better when you’re holding a bottle of champagne. Y’all are mad rich.
