Shakespace NOW on ITUNES! Befriend Shakespace on Myspace. Band history TEST The Blue Ridge Mountains were an unlikely place to find a band like Shakespace. Their sound was a mixture of heavy melodic guitars (Ian Lloyd, Jeremy Kolosine, Josh Strawn), experimental ambient synths (Kolosine),with male and female vocals (Michelle Ferguson, Kolosine, Strawn), a sound often revealing the band's shoegazer and proto-goth influences . Shakespace formed in early '96, and after many enthusiastically recieved shows, they recorded their 1st full-length CD. Released In 1998, the self titled debut album was a space rock, lo-fi collection of infectious dream-pop tracks. Throughout the late 90's, Shakespace co-hosted the 'No Phase Artspace' shows, multi-media art and music events in which artists and groups from across the US performed and contributed work. Shakespace's 2nd CD ,'Air Sign Orange' , released in late 2000 on Indianapolis' Happy Couples Records, had more of a post-punk goth-rock feel. 'This Sleeping Heart' was Shakespace's final full-length CD offering. Recorded throughout 2001 during the band's break-up, the album emerged as dark and cynical experimental pop.
