About Me

Hi All, I'm pretty new here on Myspace and hope you will come back and visit... I will be rotating several more songs from my CD "finally..." into the player (some of those "bleak and grief-filled" ones -see review) and have just made them available for down-load here on Myspace (store below). The CD is also available at cdbaby.com/cd/kerishore. You are always welcome to my page just to listen or stop by... I love visitors so please say hi and thanks for coming!
"Dynamite from top to bottom" Eric Cohen, Music director WAER-RADIO Syracuse NY
"...A finalist in the 2002 John Lennon Songwriting Contest, Shore has a voice that is reminiscent of Laura Nyro, Joni Mitchell and the late Eva Cassidy. The 12 songs on Finally show Shore to be a true inheritor of the heartfelt folk indie singer-songwriter tradition. Bleak, grief-filled and triumphant all at once..." Carole McDonell, reviewer (full review at rambles.net)
"Keri Shore has made a great record. It encompasses many styles and tempos with ease. "Watching All the While" has a Spanish guitar part that's brilliant. Shore's passionate vocal is strikingly upfront. "I Really Do" is a Cowboy Junkies-esque country song. There's something of Chris Isaac's retro fifties sensibility in the mix too. "Breakdown and Cry" is a very moving song. The sorrow in Shore's voice seems genuine. Despite the title the song is catchy and up-tempo. "Finding My Way" is a suggestive folk song. Many of us can relate to the sharp lyrics of "Girl on T.V." It describes an impossible ideal and what that makes us do to try and live up to it. "finally..." is a strong record" Anna Maria Stjärnell, reviewer -collectedsounds.com

correction re: 2002 "John Lennon Song Writing Contest"

I just wanted to clarify for the sake of accuracy the award received was for "runner-up". The reviewer mistakenly referred to as "finalist". The last song currently in my player "Finding My Way" is ...
