Silver Ladder is an album by American singer/songwriter Peter Mulvey, released in 2014.
Silver Ladder was the first album released by Mulvey after a five-year hiatus from songwriting due to personal issues. He decided to write one song a week and collected enough to record the album. The basic tracks were recorded live over two-and-a-half days followed by overdubs.[1]
Writing for the Irish Times, Joe Breen called the album "impressive" and wrote that although Mulvey "can go overboard... he compensates." Martin Chilton of The Telegraph called the album "grown-up country" and wrote that Mulvey had excelled himself. Jason Noble of CultureFly called the album "not a bad return, but it’s not likely to set the world on fire" and wrote "The songs are decent enough, but do suffer from a lack of impact at times, and a little more variation would help..."
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel placed the album 7th in its year-end review of the top 10 best albums of 2014 in Milwaukee.[2]
