about

"A sort of supergroup culled from Seattle's thriving punk/power-pop scene (members have previously been spotted in the Greatest Hits, the Pop Machine, and the Cute Lepers), the Shy Ones come at their simple, spiky, catchy tunes the same way as the Ramones once did – by revving up the sounds of Tommy James and the Shondells and early Kinks and the like; merging the mod-pop '60s with the proto-punk '70s. The Shy Ones benefit from a firm grasp of punk history, the need for gritty crunch and sweet hooks, and the killer boy-girl harmonies from singer-guitarists Leif and Tessonja. A handful of the quintet's songs have been captured in the studio by Briefs/Cute Lepers main man Steve E. Nix, the scene's spiritual leader, and both the Shy Ones' additional demos and undeniably entertaining live shows point to a bright future." - Michael Alan Golberg (Seattle Weekly, The Short List)
