New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The band of sisters SHEL has released their acclaimed album Just Crazy Enough on limited-edition vinyl. The first 2,000 albums will be pressed on 180g 12" Virgin Red Vinyl. �We�ve always loved vinyl and it seems like the best way for music lovers to hear the true dynamics of a recording." Writes lead singer of SHEL Eva Holbrook.
SHEL has also released their new video for the track "You Could Be My Baby (Samuel Stewart Remix)." The track was independently remixed by U.K. producer Samuel Stewart, and inspired the band of sisters to get creative. �When we first heard Samuel Stewart's remix of 'You Could Be My Baby' in London, we fell in love with it and HAD to make a video!" they say of the tune. "We immediately whipped out our iPhones and shot footage while on tour in Berlin, Amsterdam, London and even the darker corners of our home back in Nashville.� The video is currently streaming via PureVolume.
On
September 8th, the band joined snowboarding freestyle icon
Travis Rice on the red carpet for the premiere of his new film The Fourth Phase. SHEL�s song �When The Sky Fell� is featured in film. �My sisters and I were honored that
Travis chose 'When The Sky Fell' for such an epic scene." Remarks
Hannah Holbrook of SHEL. "We couldn't believe what we witnessed as
Travis and his amazing crew traveled around the world performing snowboard-acrobatics in such remote locations."
SHEL's full length album Just Crazy Enough was released on May 13th and first debuted with Culture Collide, who describe the record as "ten tracks laden with enticing beats, bright and airy backing vocals, and earnestly told stories woven throughout." The record was was co-produced by Dave Stewart (best known for his work with the Eurythmics). Stewart remarks, "These ladies will become close to your heart from the minute you hear the first few bars and once you see them live, they inhabit a part of of your brain, make a nest�and are there to stay."
The group also received a tremendous response for their haunting cover of Metallica's �Enter Sandman�, which was hyped by Nerdist, The Atlantic, Inquisitr, Blabbermouth, and many more. SHEL previously released a video for their song "
Rooftop", which was directed and self-produced by SHEL while on tour in Europe, and premiered with Baeble Music. Other recent features include exclusives with Team Coco, Glide Magazine, Brightest Young Things, and
Clash Music.
The four sisters of SHEL have amassed a loyal fanbase due to a defiantly DIY approach marked by tireless touring and genre-twisting music that wears its heart on its sleeve. Raised on an abandoned trailer park that the family restored and turned into a farm, the they had an unconventional and imaginative upbringing in the foothills of Fort Collins, Colorado. Each found an instrument to master early on, studying classical music while composing and arranging with
Sarah on violin,
Hannah on piano, Eva on mandolin, and Liza on drums, djembe and beatboxing. Using their first initials, the band created an acronym - SHEL. Sarah, Hannah, Eva, and Liza Holbrook like to say they are "four sisters, traveling the world, tellin' tales, and sharing a dream." The band released their 2012 self-titled debut to great acclaim, and were embraced by MTV, USA Today, American Songwriter, and many more.
