These four guys and a girl play an infectious breed of New York City garage pop that will keep you bouncing in your seat. Their music is reminiscent of the CBGB's scene of the 70's, complete with fierce hooks and razor blade guitars, but with influences ranging from The Cure to Franz Ferdinand, The Shapes create a sound all their own. The Shapes debut self-titled record has been spun by over 150 college radio stations to date and has charted on 16 of them. The record was recorded and mixed at Threshold Studios in New York City and mastered at Avatar Studios by Fred Kevorkian (White Stripes, Ryan Adams, Iggy Pop).
