The Shivers were formed in 1989 in Austin, Texas by founding members Carey Kemper and Kelly Bell, and released two albums internationally on Restless Records (US) and Glitterhouse Records (Europe) in 1994 and 1996. Though originally from Austin, they were primarily based alternately out of Portland, Oregon and Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Shivers were very favorably reviewed for their work in ''Rolling Stone''〔''Rolling Stone'' (February 22, 1996)〕 in both the United States and in Europe.〔http://www.rocktimes.de/gesamt/s/shivers/shivers_same.html〕 Their first record, ''The Shivers'', was released in 1994 to widespread positive response both in the US and the UK, and their second record, ''The Buried Life'' (Restless 72915-2) was released in 1996, where it was praised by the alternative country movement both in the US and Europe. It was named to the Top-10 Best Albums of 1996 by ''Country Guitar'' magazine, and ''New Country'', ''Mojo'' and ''Alternative Press'' also praised it.〔http://www.jellyroll.com/04/shivers.html〕〔http://www.psnw.com/~randyk/092894.htm〕〔http://www.wcbn.org/programming/playlists/96-02-19.html〕 and others) Both albums were recorded by Tom Herbers at his Third Ear Studios in Minneapolis and at Dead Aunt Thelma's Studio in Portland. The band was an early alt-country groundbreaker, touring widely and continuously in the US for several years, including the SXSW Music Conference three years running (1994–1996, the New Music Seminar (1995), the Northwest Independent Music Conference (1996) and NXNW (1997). The founding members of the band were Carey Kemper (guitars,songwriter, vocals), Kelly Bell (bass, songwriter, vocals, acoustic guitar) and Barry Haney (drums), and this lineup produced the two above-mentioned records, as well as two earlier recordings, a self-released, self-titled cassette, and a 7" single "Almost Gone" b/w "Love Other Gone", both in 1992. Founding member Kelly Bell received her Bachelor's degree in Linguistics from UT Austin and is the Founder and CEO of the Drupal development cooperative. In early 1997, Restless Records released all their rock artists from contract and changed format, signing primarily hip-hop and rap artists. The Shivers broke up shortly after playing NXNW in October, 1997, ending their career by releasing an independent CD titled "v3.5", recorded by Joash Gallagher in Portland. ==Discography== 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「The Shivers (Austin, Texas)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
