Band: The ShakesLocation: London, UKGenre: Pop / Indie / ElectronicaWebsite: www.theshakesmusic.com
Hot S.E. London four piece playing 3 ˝ minute pop songs, The Shakes mix classic songwriting and catchy choruses with tough modern sounds, synths and electronic drums. It?s all in the mix of old and new. The band have been mates since they were kids ? Gaz and Junior are brothers. 3 years ago, the band bought themselves a hearse from a funeral parlour in East Ham and recorded their demo in the rock & roll Mecca of Brendan Lynch?s studio (Paul Weller, Primal Scream).With a glowing review from Steve Lamacq and sold out headline shows at The 100 Club The Borderline and The Metro, they signed to Tough Cookie records in July 2005. Their debut single Goodbye New York sold out in a week. Their second, ??Liberty Jones??, comes out on October 16th with a video supported by Tiscali and The Raindance Film Festival.The Shakes music stares squarely down the barrel at the mainstream. And with a catalogue of songs this good and an army of fans this loud, it surely can?t be long before they?re up there mixing it with the best of them.
