Bio
About Shane..
Singer, Musician, Artist. He was born Shane Chandler in Davie, FL on July 30, 1986 to parents Debra and William Chandler.
His parents' artistic, liberal ideals led to an up-bringing structured on being free and focused on the artistic power of expression. "I remember being 11 years old, playing in my band
and singing Rape Me and Drain You by Nirvana for my 6th grade talent show, everyone thought I was insane," Shane explains. This liberal observation of life played a large role in
Shane's childhood. "My father lived an Easy Rider lifestyle, he always told me that no matter what I had to be free, free from mortgagees, from the 9-5 lifestyle, free from what was the norm," Shane explains.
Shane met up with producer Kiyanu Kim of 3PMusic Productions in 2009 to create his debut album Under The Sun. "It was the craziest year of my life," Shane explains. "Kiyanu had
a baby, I thought I was going to loose my father, I was living in one of the worst areas of New York City, I was totally broke and it seemed like I had nothing left, but I did have one thing, this album." The album was completed in 2010 and has been welcomed to rave reviews from Myspace music and has been described as resembling collaboration between "Johnny Cash and Kurt Cobain.
The Album tells a story of the struggle Shane had in dealing with a 5 year tumultuous relationship with his former on and off again girlfriend. It is a progression between falling in and out of love and eventually starting anew. No More Tries, I Am the Reason and 6AM reflect the heartbreak of that relationship. “With Free Ride I knew that we had something really special, that song perfectly described how I was feeling about yearning for a real love that I hoped existed and would last,” Shane explains. “Beautiful and Tonight provide a taste of what a true love might look and feel like.” Forget About You and Under
the Rock reflect Shane’s new found love for New York City and almost seem to hint thatthe love that was lost from his former girlfriend was replaced by his love for the City.
Shane describes “If anyone asks me who I am and how I feel, I just tell them to listen to this album and the definition of me will become very apparent.”
