  Burning Shapes Singer/songwriter/band Indie rock Based UK
|
Toby (vocals & guitar), Dave (vocals & bass), Andy (vocals & percussion) and Steve (drums) have been performing together as chilled out acoustic/electronica alter-egos Sound Sanctuary for over 13 years. Playing most of the south east and London's best rooms and picking up the praise of DJs like Lynn Parsons and Nick Luscombe They've enjoyed regular air time on Sky TV, Xfm and BBC Radio 2. Releasing several EPs and albums alongside producers Bombay Monkey and via distributor Pinnacle they've also toured the UK and performed at the BBC Radio 1 Big Weekend Fringe.
At the end of 2008 a new album started brewing but with a very different approach to the sound. Steve's live drum work had only been in the mix a couple of years and previous recordings had been scored and performed with loops and drum machines, the new tracks incorporated the kit and playing creating a far more raw and rock tinged live sound. Retaining a lot of the songwriting and super-tight sixties harmonies the so defined Sound Sanctuary, the lead vocal and musical approach started veering in a distinctly rock flavoured British indie direction.
Spending months in the studio with producer Joe Hirst (Bloc Party, Ian Brown, Razorlight, Beth Gibbons) through 2009, the sound further focused into a more raw and energised sound perfect for the modern UK live scene and the tracks have gradually started piling up with a download only giveaway released to give everyone a flavour of what's coming. A full series of new single and album releases accompanied by UK tours are expected from spring 2010.
