FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS:

SHINER

$25 General Admission // $30/seat reserved tables 

SHINER has always been about evolution, dodging genre labels and pushing musical
boundaries since their inception in the early '90s. Known for their punishing yet
melodic approach to rock, the band’s sound has morphed from the raw, untamed
energy of their early years to something more refined, layered, and introspective
on their latest release, BELIEVEYOUME.
Schadenfreude, the band's last record, released just as the world was shutting
down in early 2020. "Great timing on our part," says Josh Newton (guitar).
"Schadenfreude was dark and maybe a little claustrophobic, which makes sense,
in retrospect. This new record, BELIEVEYOUME, feels more open and more
immediate. We came in with fewer pre-written ideas and just reacted to each other
in real time. Less brooding, more instinct. Still heavy, still weird—just breathing a
little more."
Recorded over a series of multi-day sessions at bass player / engineer Paul
Malinowski’s Kansas City studio (Massive Sound), BELIEVEYOUME took shape
quickly and with purpose. "Initially, it was a process of sifting through phone
recordings, picking what hit us, and then going straight into the studio to flesh it
out,” says Allen Epley (vocals / guitar). “The results felt immediate, with no room
for overthinking.” While most of the basic recording was all done live, additional
instrumentation was tracked by Josh Newton (guitars / keyboards) at Massive
Sound and at his home in LA, and Epley's vocals were tracked at his home studio
in Chicago. Once the songs were locked, occasional touring member and mixer
Mario Quintero (Spotlights) and Malinowski fine-tuned the mixes before handing
the record off to Mike Nolte at Eureka Mastering in Portland. In the end, the band's
mix of live, spontaneous energy and post-production prowess shaped the final
sound, a blend of the band’s signature heaviness with a newfound openness.
