Golden Silvers were a London-based English band active from 2008 to 2010. They played art rock, pop, and doo-wop, and released music on XL Recordings with Bronze Records. The trio consisted of Gwilym Gold (vocals and keyboards), Ben Moorhouse (bass), and Robden Alexis Nunez (drums).

They first gained attention by winning Glastonbury's New Talent competition in 2008, earning a spot on The Other Stage that year. They also played Glastonbury in 2009. Their debut album True Romance was released on 20 April 2009. The Guardian described it as full of flamboyant lyrics, references to Greek myth, and big elastic bass lines.

In May 2009 they performed two songs on Later... with Jools Holland, and they supported Blur at Hyde Park. They also delivered a memorable set at Reading Festival 2009, where they gave necklaces to fans.

Outside of live shows, vocalist Gwilym Gold runs Bronze Club, a quarterly night at The Macbeth in East London. Bronze Blog features a wide range of indie acts. Bronze Club has built a following, with attendees dressing in gold, silver, or bronze to nod to the Ages of Man in Greek mythology.
