Catching up with The Shivers

The Shivers release their 4th album, In The Morning, on April 17th. The album marks a new beginning for the band now operating as a duo and expanding the sound. The album was made largely in a yellow windowless room in Queens, NY over the final months of 2008 although some of it comes from earlier recordings made in Montreal, QC by Keith during a lonely sojourn in 2005.

Jo is playing a lot of Yamaha Electone organ on it. Keith is rocking some sampler. They both duet on their first proper dance song "Only In It For the $$$" with good friend and Master Mastering Engineer, Alex Saltz on drums. Everyone is pretty proud of the album that was done all on tape.

Now back from a two–month National tour adventure through the strange land called America, which also included the recording of yet another album in Los Angeles, The Shivers gear up for their big release show for In the Morning at the Blender Theatre in Manhattan on May 18th. Yes, things are looking up for The Shivers these days and they‘re working hard and keeping busy. But I want you to always remember that if you have a dream in your soul you have to follow that dream no matter what. I wish love for you all. And on and on and on and on...
