Barely out of their teens, the five-piece are renowned as one of the UKs most exciting new groups with Loud and Quiet praising them as ‘One of the most watched and crucially most talked about live bands in London’.
Updating the politically conscious protest music of the Thatcher era to the modern day, the band marked the General Election with satirical Theresa May ode Visa Vulture as a free download. A taster for their as yet untitled debut album set for release later this year, the group recently signed to powerhouse US indie label Dead Oceans (Slowdive, A Place To Bury Strangers).
With a full programme of Summer festivals including an invitation from Billy Bragg to play the Leftfield Stage at Glastonbury, Shame’s reputation as an essential live act continues to grow.
