Shawn & Shelby EP Release/Charles Hill Jr. Featuring Al Moss/The Benjamin Liar

Last year, Old Boy’s Shawn Brewster and Shelby Lynn Sangdahl started up a band they christened Shawn & Shelby as an outlet for the songs that didn’t quite fit with Brewster's indie rock act Old Boy. The group released an EP and regularly gigged around town. Now, the group is back with Stay With Me Lover, a nuanced collection of fragile tunes that sound like they could be from the Once soundtrack. The sparse ballad “Stay With Me Lover” features soft vocals and acoustic guitar and suggests the album's contemplative nature. The band will undoubtedly have the song on the set list for tonight's release party at the Beachland. (Niesel)
