The Shins
Their lyrical deftness, jangly pop sound and signature soundtrack appearances have won hearts and minds.
Overview
A band whose lyrically deft and jangly pop sound saw them propelled into worldwide minds after just one album with movie and TV soundtracks, the Shins are returning to Australian shores for the fifth time, with a visit to Sydney's Hordern Pavilion.
Formed in 1996, the Shins, whose style knows no restrictions by genre, released their debut album Oh, Inverted World, along with the seminal single 'New Slang', to critical acclaim, and have since gone on to create further soundtracks to seasons, with songs that reflect the mood, ambition and startling ability of frontman James Mercer.
Back with new material off the five-years-in-the-making Port of Morrow album, the Portland quintet will be supported by Melbourne's Husky.
