ShadowParty on CD

Description

Formed in Boston, 2014, SHADOWPARTY comprises members of some of the most iconic electronic bands of a generation, New Order and DEVO. At the pulsing heart of the group are Josh Hager, Jeff Friedl, Tom Chapman and Phil Cunningham. For DEVO, Hager plays guitars and keyboards, whilst Friedl plays drums; in their hitherto day-job with New Order, Chapman and Cunningham play bass and guitars respectively. "We got on straight away because we had a lot in common, a lot of similar records in our collections - Kraftwerk, early 80s punk bands, electro, Joy Division," says Tom. "And Josh had one of the DEVO plant pot hats in his studio. That was my first question: what's that?!" With the band's debut long-player, they are joined by diverse collaborators that each contribute a distinct twist to the sound; with combined credentials including work with luminaries spanning A Certain Ratio, Electronic, The Verve and Elbow.
