The Shivs

About Me

The Shivs have been together since October 2000. We have gone through a few member changes. Blind Marc and Knuckles have led the way from the start. Our first self titled CD was released in Spring 2001. Our second CD "Blind Drunk" came out in Spring in 2003. Shortly after releasing our second CD Matt (guitar) and Frank (drums) left the band to pursue other interests. Dustin (drums) and Beev Jak (guitar) both from "Burnside Brawlers" joined in Summer 2003. September 2004 our third CD "They're Here" was recorded. We will soon be heading to the studios for CD .. 4, Stay Tuned it will be sure to scare your Grandma! Since "They're Here" Big Rick has replaced Dustin on the drums. Over the years we have opened for such bands as "Dayglo Abortions", "Death Sentence", and "SNFU". We have just returned from a tour down south where we played a show at the JAKS reunion in Vegas and then to California for six more shows in the Bay area. Thanks to Jamie Jak for playing with us since our bass player couldn't make it over the border. Take a listen to our songs and let us know what you think.
