Shoes and Socks Off was a musical project by Tobias Hayes, based in Brighton, England, and active from 2007 to 2012. == History == After leaving Meet Me in St. Louis in 2007, Hayes began writing songs for an acoustic solo project. It started off as a solo endeavour, mainly involving just himself and a guitar, but was sometimes performed as a group, involving drums, guitars, bass, samples, programming and strings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/threecounties/hi/people_and_places/music/newsid_8859000/8859299.stm )〕 His debut album ''From The Muddy Banks of Melitzer'' was recorded in September 2008 and released through DIY indie label Big Scary Monsters. It was quickly followed by ''Hand-Reared Suburban Piglet'', featuring the same 10 songs, but re-worked with drums, strings, keys and programming. In the winter of 2009, the third full length album was released. ''To Where The Skyline Is Fortified With Windows And Doors''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.dieshellsuit.co.uk/news_article.asp?nId=5308 )〕 comprised 10 new songs, some of which featured members of Nitkowski, Palehorse and Blakfish. Following quickly in summer 2010, ''Robin Hood Waiter Champion Have-Not'', the fourth album was released. Hayes took it on tour with a band, featuring members of Nitkowski, Palehorse and Talons. A homemade video was made for every song on the record. 2011 saw the release of ''Don't Blame Yourself, It's in Your Blood'', a three-disc anthology of all SASO recorded output to date, and 'Dot Dot Dot & Other Works', a lyric book containing words to every Shoes And Socks Off and Meet Me in St. Louis song. With the book came a download link to 10 new demos, each of which had been recorded whilst on a 40-day tour of mainland Europe with Tubelord in 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://musicalmathematics.tumblr.com/post/3037381678/tubelord#_=_ )〕 In May 2012, Shoes And Socks Off's fifth album ''Miles of Mad Water'' was released on BSM in the UK and Father Figure Records in mainland Europe. Toby toured the remainder of the year, this time with a band. Oliver Newton (Yndi Halda) on drums, and Alex Petersen (Elle Milano/Love Among The Mannequins) on bass, keys and guitars. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shoes and Socks Off」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
