Most famous for being one of the founding members of the pioneering female punk band the Raincoats, Ana Da Silva continued to make music, in some shape or form, after the group disbanded in 1984. Soon after the release of the Raincoats' final album, Moving, Da Silva collaborated with This Heat drummer Charles Hayward on a project called Roseland; they recorded a few demos together, but the duo faltered after that. She also wrote music for choreographer Gaby Agis' productions, but spent much of the '80s and early '90s painting and working in an antique shop. The Raincoats' reunion spurred Da Silva and the rest of the group to write new songs, resulting in the band's fifth album, 1996's Looking in the Shadows. Da Silva resurfaced in early 2005 with Lighthouse, a largely electronic collection of songs that she wrote, recorded, and produced entirely by herself. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
