"SHEL are all exceptionally gifted musicians, singers and outstanding individuals. They blow my mind with their creativity, they are the best example of DIY I've ever come across with their songwriting, sound production, homemade videos and original costume designs. I can truly say these 'sisters are doing it for themselves.'"
