MEET THE SHAPES
We're a Dallas trio that uses rock for good
and evil! Dishing up a mix of 60's garage,
lovely pop, blues, psych and dirty rock
explosion! Let us rip a hole in your soul
and pour a little sugar in!
whats been said-
" “I Don’t Wanna Know” is a delightful janglefest highlighted
by Lance Pilgrim’s chimey guitar melodies and Patricia’s
jealousy-stricken vocals that fall somewhere between the
monotone of Grace Slick and the gentleness of the We Five’
s “When I Woke Up This Morning.”The only thing missing
from this sunshine pop nugget is a Rickenbacker." -David
Virden THE FOLD MAGAZINE
"The Shapes create the sort of unencumbered, confident
indie pop befitting a band with a name as streamlined and
elegant as The Shapes. Their music has a comfortable
innocence, like a lived-in sweater or a chest of childhood
toys, with Rodriguez’ buoyant bass lines anchored by
drummer Chuck Spurlock’s (middle-left) blissful and
straightforward pop drumming, and Pilgrim’s jangly,
echoing guitar. While the band members all take inspiration
from the garage rock and punk of the 60’s and 70’s, their
music is uniquely modern, and has a feel similar to the
bossanova indie pop of Teenbeat’s True Love Always." -M.
