Highly acclaimed Manchester band SHADE has just announced their latest single, ‘Break Out’, is out now via Golden Robot Records. SHADE is a band poised on the brink of greatness, and their latest track, ‘Break Out‘, serves as just the opening act in what promises to be a prolific year for the ensemble.

Order ‘Break Out‘: https://orcd.co/shade-break-out

This single marks the inception of a new era for SHADE, both lyrically and sonically. Infused with energetic drums and captivating vocals, the track pulsates with a modern alt-rock essence and upbeat vibes, seamlessly blending the quintessential Manchester sound with a fresh, innovative twist.

‘Break Out‘ was produced by renowned hit-maker Gavin Monaghan (Editors, Sherlocks, The Blinders, The Twang, Robert Plant, Paolo Nutini) at the prolific Magic Garden Studios. Positioned at the forefront of Manchester’s thriving music scene, SHADE sets a high standard for emerging bands.

Their previous single, ‘Illusive Dreams’, caught the eye of worldwide superstar (and big SHADE fan), Louis Tomlinson, who, after hearing the track, personally invited the band to support and perform at his annual ‘Away From Home Festival’ in Italy last year. They performed alongside well-known artists Blossoms and The Cribs.
 
This next tune is set to be another exciting and striking release just like the last. Get ready to embark on a sonic journey like no other with ‘Break Out’.

SHADE‘s debut EP ‘Interstellar‘ has arrived, sweeping away the remnants of winter and ushering in a season of warmer days and extended evenings. The remarkable musicianship of this quartet transcends their years, as they unveil four tunes of monumental proportions. Each composition stands as a worthy contender for a headlining spot in a stadium, with the title track, “Interstellar,” alone being worth the price of admission.

“Luke, Macca, Adam and Oliver across the EP have delivered 4 tunes of epic proportions, each worthy of a stadium filling headliner. Hell the title track Interstellar is worth the price of admission. Not only are SHADE one of the hottest bands around, with this release they’re out of this world” – Louder Than War

The North Manchester quartet of Luke (vocal / guitar), Adam (bass / vocal), Ben (guitar) and Oliver (drums) hit the ground running in Spring 2019. Whilst the pandemic reduced their live appearances at the time, it didn’t stop them refining their craft, writing and building a loyal following which continues to grow.

The best thing about SHADE (always written in capitals) is while they have proper Mancunian attitude and swagger, they’re not clones of what’s gone before. There may be elements of Oasis, Stone Roses, etc which they’ve picked up from their parents record collection, but the sound they craft is 100% their own. Lead guitarist Ben alone is like the bastard offspring of Jimi Hendrix, John Squire and Slash combined. While other ‘new’ Manchester bands hark back to the past, SHADE are looking firmly forward with a truly exceptional songwriter and singer in Luke, who is going from strength to strength with wisdom beyond his years.

Obviously every band needs a strong engine room to keep it all together, and this is the beauty of it, not only are Adam and Oliver in tune, they’re brothers as well. You can’t get tighter than that!

No messing around, this is the sound of a band that are all playing to their strengths.
