TheSHIFT Live at Kathleen's Cottage
Individually, the members of theSHIFT are highly sought-after musicians whove recorded and toured the world with music royalty. Together, John Shannon (vocals/guitar), MJ Lambert (drums) and Ben Geis (bass) craft earth-shattering, anthemic rock with vibrant depth and a forceful punch. The powerhouse trios defiant sound is perfectly captured on its debut 7th Direction, to be released on April 14.theSHIFTs multi-layered riffs and heavy driven groove are in full effect with Kobra, the first single off of 7th Direction. The song received its world premiere with Loudwire.7th Direction was recorded at Brooklyns Mission Sound and Manhattans JRock Studios and co-produced by Jamie Siegal (Taking Back Sunday, Mary J. Blidge, Santana). Referencing the Native American concept of directions, the track title further reflects a deeper meaning behind theSHIFTs approach to music.
theSHIFT is about altering your consciousness through the sheer power of rock n roll, declares Shannon. Our lyrics dont question the government, they question the nature of your reality.
Having each attended the famed Berklee College of Music, theSHIFT comes from a wide-ranging music spectrum. Shannon has recorded and toured with top-national acts like John Mayer, Lauren Hill and Ben Harper, and also composed music for comedian Louis CKs live specials and hit FX series, Louie. Lambert and Geis musical roots lie deep in the world of hip hop, having backed legends Big Daddy Kane and Slick Rick.
Despite continuing to be in high-demand for session work, the trio has made theSHIFT their primary focus, determined to inject rock with the rebellious boldness lacking in todays climate. When you just play a song perfectly from start to finish theres no danger there, explains Shannon. When you choose to open it up in a way thats in touch with the moment and the audience, then you can get into some real danger, real transcendence.
theSHIFT is constantly on the road, bringing its vivacious rock n roll spirit to life onstage. The trio will continue to tour nation-wide and world wide.
