SHYNE went through quite a large
shift. We found ourselves on tour last December, playing to our loyal
fans in the Eastern Cape, when it hit us. We had become a pub band,
doing mostly covers and not putting enough emphasis on our original
sound.As
a band, we collectively agreed to stop gigging until we had something
on offer, we truly felt proud of. As it happens, our very own, talented
Andrew Proome also went his own way. He is now a brilliant solo musician
and we're very proud of his courage and music. So with all these
changes, it was best for SHYNE to take a short sabbatical from the
industry.
Since January this year, Owl and I have been working
incredibly hard. Discussing and laying down what our new sound should
be. It had to be a sound that reflected our vision and love, which is to
awaken people to the healing power of music. It's a sound that won't
hit mainstream and we'd like to keep it that way. What we're creating is
multi-layered, it asks deep attention from it's listeners and it pushes
to lift spirits.
Where are we now? In studio. We have laid down 4
beautiful new songs. We have re-branded ourselves and are almost ready
to showcase to the world what we're truly made of. Meanwhile, take a
look at our website and give us your thoughts :)
The main point of this new journey is we want YOU to take it with us...what'dja'say?
