INTERACTIVES
Listen to song clips from Daize Shayne

By ROBERT KINSLER
Special to the Register

It's not uncommon at music industry gatherings to hear musicians, producers and other insiders lament how teens and preteens don't generally have the passion for popular music shared by preceding generations.

Some blame competing interests in everything from video games to extreme sports, while others fault the lack of music education in elementary schools and a lackluster quality of artists promoted by the major labels.

Daize Shayne, a part-time resident of Costa Mesa, is in a good position to turn back the tide. She picked up her second world championship surfing title in Costa Rica last October, has a successful modeling career (GQ, Sports Illustrated, Longboard Magazine, Maxim) and has been a spokeswoman for major corporations such as MasterCard, Dr. Pepper and Gap. And although she has been singing and playing guitar for about a decade, her musical skills are only now drawing the kind of attention that has greeted her skills as a top athlete and on-camera personality.

She has teamed with Costa Mesa producer-songwriter Ken Tamplin and is busy readying a solo music release that could well be the antidote for young fans who want to hear something less calculated than offerings from the likes of Ashlee Simpson and Avril Lavigne. Like the potent Pacific waves she rides, Shayne's music is rooted in forces that recall a time when rock was defined by the music itself more than downloading, record company mergers and Nielsen SoundScan sales reports.

"We met through a mutual friend," Shayne said of her meeting with Tamplin in April. "I knew who he was, and I thought it would be cool to have lunch with him."

Shayne's hope that she could meet Tamplin - best known for scoring music and writing songs for a variety of film and television projects - and perhaps get him to work on one song with her has burgeoned into an impressive full-length album project.

"We've been powering 24/7," Tamplin said. "We're tired of canned music. Daize and I felt the guitar was lost, and felt arena rock was lost."

Although bands such as AC/DC, Rush, KISS and Van Halen were launched long before Shayne was born, she grew up listening to her father's Led Zeppelin albums, as well as her older sister's Clash records. On songs such as "Why Can't You Understand Me," "Naughty Girl" and "Swallow Me Whole," the heavy vibe of the 1970s is blended with Shayne's lyrical tales of hope and strength that are drawn from her experiences living and traveling around the world, as well as from mentoring disadvantaged inner-city youth through a program offered through Oasis Christian Center in Hollywood.

Her amalgamation of driving rock and positive lyrical themes is enhanced by Shayne's compelling vocals. Her soprano needs no studio doctoring in the tradition of weak singers such as Britney Spears and Hilary Duff; she has a voice as powerful as those of many of her own musical heroes. She counts as her biggest influences a diverse field including Led Zeppelin, Ella Fitzgerald, Bob Marley and early Metallica.

"I've played music as long as I've surfed and it's something I'm trying to do for a long time," said Shayne, who is considering not competing in the longboard surfing championships this year - despite it being held in nearby Huntington Beach - to focus more clearly on music making.

"To me, playing music is like surfing on land," Shayne explained. "(You) just do it; just go out there to have some fun."

Shayne's next live appearance will be far from the shores of Orange County, Costa Rica and Hawaii. She and her band will perform next month at Madison Square Garden in New York.

"I'm performing at the Republican National Convention before Arnold (Schwarzenegger) speaks," said Shayne.

"To do this takes a tremendous amount of time and energy," Tamplin said. "Daize is a role model."

Bio

International Recording Artist Daize Shayne
is “Living Her Dreams.” Not only has she
just released her rockin’ “Live Your Dreams”
album through BCS Records, she is following
it up with tours throughout Europe and
Japan. And as if being one of the hottest
rising stars in the entertainment world isn’t
enough, Daize also enjoys the fact that she
is a World Champion Surfer and a successful
model & actress!
Growing up in the paradise of Hawaii, Daize
taught herself how to surf when she was
just a kid, and ever since then has been one
of the torch bearers for female surfers all
around the world. Who says girls can’t play
with the boys!? She proves that point again
when hitting the stage in support of “Live
Your Dreams” - Daize delivers the goods
with the same passion and dedication as any
of the legends in the field.
Daize Shayne landed several highly coveted
endorsement deals with companies like;
Peavey, Audix Mics, GHS Strings, Harman Music, and is
the only female electric guitarist to have been offered
an endorsement deal by famed Di-
Marzio - joining such guitar legends as Jeff
Beck, Eric Clapton, Al Dimeola, and Steve Vai.
Again, Daize paves the way, full of faith and
completely unafraid.
But, Daize’s talents don’t end there. Besides
Surfing the World’s greates waves and

playing the world’s greatest stages (including
Madison Square Garden), Daize is also an accomplished
actress and model. Daize has been featured
on the covers and inside the pages of GQ,
Sports Illustrated, Longboard Magazine, Surflife,
and Ready Go Magazine - to name a few. Additionally,
Daize Shayne has appeared in ads
for MasterCard, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, The Gap, and
other corporate giants. She has also walked the
fashion runways and appeared in film and music
videos.
Daize understands the responsibility that notoriety
brings. She tirelessly gives back to the
community through volunteer work and mentoring
inner city kids. Her sense of commitment to
worthy causes at such a young age exhibits the
strong foundation in which she is rooted.
Daize Shayne’s intriguing ability to combine
beauty, strength and talent has made her a role
model for all ages, which enhances her allure
as “someone to watch.” Her mantra, “Live Your
Dreams,” inspires us all to get off the sidelines
and jump into the ocean called life.
