TOUR SCHEDULE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE
==============================
Re-armed with loads of new, uplifting, anthem-esque crowd rallying material, STANDING SHADOWS is excited to get back on the road to show the West our latest and greatest live performance to date --
STANDING SHADOWS has put together a full-on, in your face electro-rock show that will energize and touch your soul... with guitars, synths, soaring vocals, sampler, theremin, smoke machine, and more gadgetry, we have put together a rock show that just might blow the roof off your venue--
Currently ranked #12 on the National Specialty Radio Chart (FM), an EP that debuted on the iTunes front page for 2 weeks, and a song featured in the hit TV show '90210', we are ready to get back out there and remind the West what we bring to the live show experience...
We are promoting what we call the 'Trilogy of EP's'... A project that first started back in the Joshua Tree Desert this past Summer with Producer Chris Goss (Queens of the Stone Age, UNKLE, The Cult, The Duke Spirit) and Engineer Ethan Allen (Daniel Lanois, Spindrift, Gram Rabbit). Since that time, we have been working tirelessly to put together a collection of EP's that will reach a variety of audiences across the world.
RELEASE SCHEDULE:
-----------------
Oct 4th - "Freakshow" EP
This EP is all about energy. The title track is driving, hard, and electric... so we unleashed a team of DJ Remixers to create the most uptempo, dancey, electro-DJ remixes we could make. Then we slapped that together into 1 package called the "Freakshow" EP. We just enjoyed 2 full weeks on the front page of iTunes. Available here:

Nov 1st - "Just A Part Of Me (Tales from the War Garden)" EP
This EP comes from a much more emotional place. While the title track "Just A Part Of Me" is still uptempo and uplifting, it is an emotional love song that begs for acceptance and love with the chorus line "i just wanna take your heart tonight, i just wanna do what feels right, my heart beats til i'm empty". To go with this title track, we decided to do 'acoustic / organic' remixes of some of our past hits, including "Silent Revolution"; a cello/acoustic-plucking version of "Just A Part Of Me"; a deep version of "Fade Away", which has the greatest piano tone we've ever recorded, as well as some great vocals by David (sounds like a full female opera group to me); and more. We are very proud of these new versions. Releasing Nov 1st to iTunes and digitally around the world.
Jan 17th - "One By One" EP
This will be a straight-up rock-electro record, with all new original songs. The title track "One By One" is a rocking, in-yo-face track that features Dave Catching on the guitar solo! (Dave was the first guitarist in 'Queens of the Stone Age', and currently plays with 'The Eagles of Death Metal" -- a bad ass desert rock guitar king-- happy to have him on this track! The other tracks to this record will be uptempo with rocking synths, guitars, drums, etc ---
Looking forward to seeing you at the party!!
