Moreno received her college education at Berklee, where she appeared in high-profile concerts.[3] She was subsequently chosen to perform at three graduation ceremonies at the Agganis Arena in Boston, in front of renowned artists such as Juan Luis Guerra, Smokey Robinson, Angelique Kidjo, Michael McDonald, Paco De Lucía and Chucho Valdés.[4]

During the aforementioned years she formed her roots in Brooklyn and London, resulting in an artistic combination with her South American roots. In this way she began to venture into an experimental genre that included variants of North American and English indie pop/rock (Ingrid Michaelson, Florence + The Machine, Sia, Lily Allen, Kate Nash, St. Vincent) and Latin American singer-songwriters (Jorge Drexler, Kevin Johansen, Gustavo Cerat).[3][5]

Her music is characterized by telling and defending narrative stories with a marked focus on the song and composition itself.[6]

In terms of style, Silvina displays a fresh compositional essence with a path of more than ten years travelled within the music industry.[3]

She shared the stage with Jorge Drexler, Natalia Lafourcade, Ximena Sarinana, Carlos Rivera and Paty Cantu.
