The Shapes

The Shapes fall into the category of bands I've been meaning to check out for quite some time now. Somehow, they got lost in the shuffle. Don't worry, I've given myself (and everyone else) the perfect opportunity to catch their live show by getting involved with the Family Business CMJ show that's happening on November 1st @ Union Pool.

Their music has already appeared in a few TV shows (their song "Behind the Blue" is the theme song for the new A&E reality show "Dallas Swat") and they've already played shows, and appeared on radio stations, all around the country. With a bit of Franz Ferdinand in their guitar chops and some garage grunge in their pop melodies I'm guessing that their show in one week is going to be f-u-n, fun.

Listen:
"Dry On Ice"
