SHIV

SHIV doesn't fit in a box.

SHIV realized they were too rocky for the country artists, too poppy for folk, and they had more soul on stage than most Nashville audiences had seen before.

Since then, SHIV's music has developed into a form all of its own, with a genre that might be best described as "Soulgrunge." It integrates the vocal styles of Chris Cornell and the sophisticated rock sound of Led Zeppelin. It pays homage to the poetic lyricism of Shinedown, Alice in Chains, The Doors and Pearl Jam. Most notably, it plays with melodies, unexpected chord structures, and showcases their stunning vocal power and agility - all of which can be found in spades when listening to their latest EP, What I Know. Produced by Marc Loren at 42nd Street Studios, What I Know features 12 original tracks that showcase SHIV's timeless, soulful vocals, and skillful craft.

In a world of boxes and labels, SHIV's sound aims to redefine the lines that have been so carefully etched in our cultural musical lexicon, and to bring the emotional power of grunge rock and soul to the mainstream.
