Premiere: Shadow Show – Shadow Box

Sassy psych sisters SHADOW SHOW give us ‘Shadow Box’, the first release taken from their debut album Silhouettes, which is out through Burger Records and Stolen Body Records on Valentines day 2020.


Hailing from Detroit, SHADOW SHOW are a sleek and spellbinding all girl group with bags of attitude and talent to match, the music sweeps you up into its frenetic psychedelic grooves and dazzling harmonies. They combine elements of 60’s garage-psychedelia and give it a 21st century modern pop-art incarnation, yet they remain deeply rooted in the raw, untouchable Detroit sound.

At the age of 17 they delved into a world where time no longer exists, where music takes its reign and everything else follows: Detroit’s music scene as it stands. SHADOW SHOW started out in the dregs of the forgotten metropolis in a dark and transitional time for the city, playing in the basements of battered manors and inconspicuous store fronts. As the surrounding landscape changed, so did the soundscape the people of Detroit had created for themselves. SHADOW SHOW represent the love of a time long lost and the will of a time not yet discovered. A power trio of a mysterious hue, . They project a vision to the world in their display: a spectacle of light as curious as shadow.

SHADOW SHOW are guitarist Ava East, bassist Kate Derringer, and drummer Kerrigan Pearce who have been playing together in this incarnation since 2018. Upon the release of singles, “The Machine” and “Glass Eye,” they made their presence known nationally and internationally before laying low during the creation of their debut album, Silhouettes.  Recorded in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Silhouettes is the self-produced debut endeavour of SHADOW SHOW’s unique sound and vision. The 10-track album was recorded and mixed by Kate Derringer, and mastered by Jim Diamond (The White Stripes, The Dirtbombs, Ghetto Recorders).
