SILVERBACK HISTORY

Silverback was born in 1959 and was first exposed to breaking just after college in 1983 at The Roxy in New York when he was a Financial Analyst at Goldman Sachs.

Silverback learned the basics of breaking in 1984 from the legendary Mr. WigglesFast Break and their local crew members at the former P. Lynch Community Center P.A.L. in South Bronx, New York, later joining street hitter Wayne Blizz and the Float Committee.

Among the earliest showcase events sponsored by Silverback were performances at Dartmouth College in 1984 and 1985, featuring Mr. WigglesFast Break and many others from South Bronx as shown in the video here.
