Shapeshifter Announce Signing To 123 Agency & Release Sixth Studio Album 'Stars' - YEAH; But Seriously ThoughYEAH; But Seriously Though

Kiwi drum and bass legends Shapeshifter have just announced their signing with 123 Agency as well as the release of their sixth studio album ‘Star’.

Following up from their 2013 international breakout success album ‘Delta’, Shapeshifter are back with a new and refined version of their signature sound in the form of their latest album ‘Stars’. ‘Stars’ features everything we know and love about Shapeshifter, from their tingy notes, hard hitting bass, synth like guitars and high energy vocals. But like many other bands Shapeshifter are growing and developing more and more with every album, and ‘Stars’ is definitely evidence of new stories to tell and a greater understanding of their art form.

‘Stars’ takes Shapeshifters stadium sound to new heights with 11 amazing and individual tracks that tell their own story and share their own journey. Throughout this album you can really hear all their different influences from touring outside of New Zealand as well as experimenting with new sounds and the expectations of signing to a new label.

Shapeshifter recorded ‘Stars’ between their New Brighton and Auckland studios after spending six months writing and finalising their high energy anthem tracks, before settling down at Auckland’s Roundhead Studios with The Upbeats’ Dylan Jones and Jeremy Glenn.

Alongside their signing to 123 Agency and the release of ‘Stars’, Shapeshifter have also announced they are heading on tour in March/April for 6 dates from Perth to Margaret River, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.

“Really happy to be working with 123 Agency and looking forward to getting back to Australia which has always been one of our favourite places to play!!”

– Nick Robinson, Shapeshifter
