SHED is always working on new material for their set list. The goal is to have new material added in for every show. Some of these songs are drawn from the existing catalogue of SHED material that the band has written over the past twenty years. Of these songs some are reintroduced to the set-list exactly as they were originally written and others are reworked to reflect the band's new feel of the song in order to deliver a more impactful performance in a live setting.
The brand new material which is currently being written and arranged is an eclectic, intense, and mold-breaking process. There seems to be no shortage of ideas and concepts being churned out and kicked around by the band. Even just a short simple off-the-wall riff has the potential to inspire several other riffs, rhythms, and ideas.
At rehearsal on Wednesday evening Bobby Ingals threw out a riff and the rest of the band jumped on it. It must have been his new guitar that he scored in a resale shop that inspired the riff. In a matter of minutes the band had the workings of an intense new song. With the State Street Pub show just over a week away the band is going to stay focused on making sure the set is dialed in but it just goes to show that inspiration and creativity can strike at any time. Fortunately for SHED Kelley was able to record the session on the Zoom LiveTrak L-12 digital mixer so that the band can pick up where they left off after the State Street Pub show.
Stay tuned for further updates and a sample of the song sometime in January. Remember to get your crew together and head out to the State Street Pub on Saturday, December 29th to rock out with SHED and special guests Old Revel Minds and Out of the Tempest. The doors open at 6 pm and there is a $5 cover charge. The beer selection is great and the menu is good too. Out of the Tempest takes the stage at 9:30 so make sure you give yourself time to hang out with the bands and enjoy a few drinks before the show starts.
