Band Members: vocals : Robyn Wyman
guitar : Thilo Mündel

THE SHIFT is a combination of raw funky blues/rock guitar and dark soulful vocals.
THILO plays guitar as if it is a part of his very self. With his own unique percussive style, he holds the rhythm section together like a band. Add The velvet sensual voice of ROBYN and you have an exciting, lively and reflective performance.
Bringing together their own individual influences, they create a sound that incorprates acoustic and electric guitars, percussion and vocals with a blend of Blues, Rock, Jazz and R&B, performing original works as well as specially chosen covers which they play their own way. Allow yourself to be suprised...
....every feeling is conveyed through his guitar.....
....with a gifted voice so large that only through her gestures can the experience be extended...
..the audience, spoilt through the excellence of past performers experienced here the great art of a full bodied offering of Jazz, Blues & Rock.....

Karl Schmeid, Ostthuringen Zeitung, Germany 2007.

.....with full power and a brilliant soulful voice.....THE SHIFT can come back for another Shift!

Sounds Like: Wir nehmen Anleihen aus Blues and Roots, Jazz, Folk and Rock und bestreiten nur mit Stimmen, Gitarren und Percussion einen minimalistischen Weg zu unserer Musik, kreieren aber einen vollen Sound angereichert mit rhythmischen und melodischen Feinheiten.
Wir haben unseren eigenen, sehr persoenlichen Stil und unsere Liveauftritte sind fuer uns Orte der Begegnung und neuer Erfahrungen.
Unsere eigenen Songs sind inspiriert durch Erlebnisse und Erfahrungen unseres gemeinsamen als auch individuellen Weges. Die Coverversionen interpretieren wir neu, mit Ueberraschungen und Veraenderungen ohne dabei die "message" zu verlieren.
