Details:
Fighting Shy is the result of a collaboration between a
New Jersey-born bass player with a penchant for reggae and The Dead; a gum-chewing, Pearl Jam-loving northern Californian rock drummer; and a Midwestern singer-songwriter raised on the Beatles.

The Seattle trio plays melody-driven, song-oriented rock layered with well-placed harmonies, intelligent lyrics, and driving bass lines. Their eclectic sound is difficult to pigeonhole, but has been most adeptly described as âThe Velvet Undergound meets Pedro the Lion with a surf twinge.â

âTiny Horsesâ was recorded primarily in the Beacon Hill neighborhood of Seattle at Creamsicle Studios, the selfsame studio where Seattle-based outfit The Airresponsibles recorded their now infamous album âWhere the Grass Grows Green and the Girls Run Free.â

Fighting Shyâs first full-length release is peppered with guest appearances by notable local musicians Michael Spaly
of Creeping Time, Lance Hofstad of Estocar, Eric Webb and Chad Benson of The Airresponsibles, and artist and performer Jed Dunkerley.
