The band comments: “We just put out the final single from our upcoming album! »Disappearing Act« is a song about being frustrated with the monotony of life. It’s about that feeling when you’re sick of doing what you’re expected to do, and the urge to burn your bridges, pack a bag and drive away.
Check it out, and stay tuned for details on the album release with Glory or Death Records.”
Shrew is a Heavy Psych/Fuzz Rock band from Portland, Oregon. Influenced by giants such as Jimi Hendrix, Cream and Led Zeppelin as well as cult classics like Toad, Budgie and Dust, the band’s music opens a portal to the past to bring their Heavy grooves and Psychedelic improvisations to the future.
The story began when Max Siegfried, Selina Cleary and Shea Gegan of Greenseeker collaborated with vocalist Rosie Peterson of Slow Goat on a live performance of Black Sabbath’s “Snowblind” in 2022. Following this, the members’ mutual love for Classic 70s Rock’n’Roll was revealed. After three successful releases as Greenseeker (including a 2xLP released on Stonefly Records and a split on Electric Alley Records), the trio decided to partner up with Rosie full-time in Shrew.
The band has just finished recording their debut full-length, self-titled album with renowned engineer Justin Phelps at Portland’s legendary Hallowed Halls Studio. In their short tenure as a live band, Shrew has shared stages with Belzebong, Gnome, Messa, Spirit Mother and Greenbeard. In their other projects, members have also played with Mars Red Sky, Weedeater, Mos Generator, Hippie Death Cult, The Well, Deathchant, Tigers On Opium, Kadabra, Fever Dog and many more. Following the release of their record, the band plans to hit the road to bring their music to old friends and new fans alike.
Shrew’s debut album gets into the nitty gritty of life against a familiar backdrop of 70s-inspired Rock’n’Roll.
Shrew’s self-titled album was recorded and produced by Justin Phelps at the Hallowed Halls Studio between October 2023 and July 2024. The album was mastered by Alan Douches at West West Side Music in August 2024.
