The Shore is an American rock group founded in Silver Lake, CA by frontman Ben Ashley. The Shore are heavily influenced by psychedelic bands like The Byrds, The Beatles, Coldplay,〔(filter magazine - artists to watch - The Shore )〕 and The Beach Boys as well as Britpop groups Oasis and The Verve. ==Biography== In the spring of 2002, Ashley wrote a series of songs with producer Rick Parker. Parker assembled a group of local musicians, including Kyle Mullarky (bass), Cliff Magreta (guitar), and John Wilmer (drums), to record a series of demos. The demos came to Scott Austin, a Maverick A&R Executive, and the band was given a major contract only a few months after their initial recordings. The Shore returned to the studio with Parker to record their first album. The Shore recorded the album over a period of three months. The Shore EP was released in December 2003 and their full length self-titled album The Shore was released in July 2004. The song "Coming Down" was featured on the Long Way Round soundtrack, a documentary detailing the journey of Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman from London to New York on motorcycles. After guitarist Wayne Faler toured with the band, he was added as a permanent member in December 2005. It was about this time that The Shore parted ways with Maverick Records to pursue a better record deal. The Shore released their second album Light Years digitally in September 2008 on Amazon, iTunes, eMusic, Napster, Rhapsody and a few other media sites. A vinyl version of Light Years was released in September 2011. Throughout 2013 the band began raising funds through Kickstarter to support the release of their third studio album Second Sight. The amount of funds needed to produce the album was met and Second Sight was released in September 2013. 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 Shore (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
