Shanty, a seven piece band from the British capital, presents its debut effort 'Leave Me Out, an EP consisting of four tracks. For the recording of 'Leave Me Out' Shanty took to the Sawmills Studio in Cornwall, a location made famous by the cream of the British rock-scene (Oasis, The Verve, Supergrass, The Stone Roses...). The band members describe Shanty as a "seven piece party-reggae collective" and with this EP, they wanted to deliver a solid calling card. Producing four distinctively different sounding tracks (title song 'Leave Me Out' is a great lovers rock tune, 'One More' sounds rather dubby and 'Rise Up' is a sturdy up-tempo roots track) and with the horn section of the band (Ross Moore, Kenneth Brown, trombone and trumpet) playing a prominent role, they certainly succeeded. To keep an eye on!
