Sh! is an independent rock band from Detroit, MI.
The Switch Broke ‘Cause It’s Old

Our music is now “playlisted” on WDET, FM 101.9 Detroit, MI (thank you Ann Delisi) and The Station, AM 1610 Hamtramck, MI.

We’re especially excited about The Station. They’re a brand new broadcast set to air on May Day (workers unite)! The signal will only reach as far as the borders of Hamtramck but their DIY ideals are inline with our own.


A Title

We have decided on a title for our upcoming sophomore album…

Our Manderley

The title is derived from Daphne du Maurier’s 1938 novel Rebecca. The novel is also the basis for Alfred Hitchcock’s 1940 film of the same name.

A track list will follow shortly. Stay tuned…

In the Works

We’re once again dipping our metaphoric toes into the recording waters. Our sophomore album hasn’t a title, or anything other than loose ideas begging to be pulled tight into a bow. Nevertheless, we’re excited (and daunted) by the task put forth this season.

Hopefully you won’t forget about us! Remember, it’s easy to keep abreast of changes on the Sh! front. Subscribe (RSS Feed), schedule (Google Calendar), sign-up (Email Newsletter), and/or befriend (Myspace, Virb, and Facebook).
