Lucas Silveira is best known as the front man for the Canadian rock band, The Cliks. Silveira rose to fame in 2007 by becoming the first out transgender man to be signed to a major label record deal with Warner Music / Tommy Boy Silver Label.
He has toured worldwide with acts such as Cyndi Lauper, The B-52s, Debbie Harry, Tegan and Sarah, The Cult, and the New York Dolls to name a few.
