SHIROCK is a pop/rock band from Nashville, TN, the band was founded by Chuck Shirock, who also does vocals, plays guitar and plays piano. Chuck later met Pap SHIROCK and the two played shows with various musicians and began recording demos “We found early encouragement and direction through Detroit-based producer and friend Michael King, whom we made our first studio recordings with. During this time many close friends came alongside us to help build a foundation for what would become SHIROCK”
SHIROCK’s debut album Everything Burns hit stores on February 22nd 2011. Before their debut album Pap and Chuck recorded three albums of demos “The songs on the album-they’re our lives, our relationships, our friendships within the band” says Chuck as he reflects on the songs on the album. At the end of 2009 SHIROCK was the first independent band to release a CD in Hollister stores worldwide. SHIROCK also had placements on MTV, ABC and NBC.
After listening to SHIROCK’s debut album Everything Burns I thought that they were a good band and I wouldn’t be surprised to hear more from them in the years to come. SHIROCK is a mix of rock and pop, similar to Coldplay, and U2. They also have a sound similar to that of The Killers. I would recommend this band to anyone who likes the genre of music similar to Coldplay because they would really enjoy it.
