<br />
SUPER EXCITED THAT THE DEBUT SHELLS LP IS FINALLY OUT! IT'S CALLED "IN A CLOUD" AND IT IS RELEASE #64 ON LIFE LIKE! MANY MANY THANKS TO FRED THOMAS AND EVERYONE WHO HAS SUPPORTED THIS PROJECT!!<br />
<br />
THE RECORD IS AVAILABLE <a href="http://lifelike.bigcartel.com/product/shells-in-a-cloud-lp">HERE ON THE LIFE LIKE SITE</a>!<br />
<br />
HERE IS THE DESCRIPTION/MORE INFO FROM THE LIFE LIKE:<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Life Like #64</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Edition of 200 LPs</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Michigan wonder Shelley Salant (Swimsuit, Tyvek, SLGTM, etc.) began playing solo shows under various names a few years ago, bringing her brittle, mantra-like guitar meditations into form over the course of several tapes on her Ginkgo label. "In A Cloud" is the first LP collection of her songs, streamlining things a bit from the often lengthy zones of her tapes, but maintaining her expansive and thoughtful sounds.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">A focus on themes of nature, struggle and compassion are expressed loudly through the simple means of a single guitar with minimal processing. There are some soft dub touches in the production, and the occasional wash of drums or staticy overdub, but mostly we hear the cavernous refractions of Shelley's instinctive jamming, spreading out like ripples on the lake and unfolding new possibilities as they go. Do punks go camping? Is there punk wildlife? Can we communicate with the animals and be absolutely certain we understand each other? Absolutely.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Also available as "Other Clouds" C-32, featuring tracks from the record and unreleased material in a collaged form.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Both releases ship mid-June.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Track listing:</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">1.Beginning</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">2.Warm Dub</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">3.Grass</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">4.Raining</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">5.Beach</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">6.All Things Must Pass</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">7.Not So Wild A Dream</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">8.Wash Over</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">9.New Era</span><br />

I (Shells) am playing bass, and Amber (Swimsuit/Damned Dogs etc) is playing drums. Jules (also in Bad Indians) plays guitar, and Autumn plays guitar & sings & writes all the songs.<br />
<br />
We have played two shows so far! The first one was opening for Widowspeak at Space 2435 in Ann Arbor. Our friend Jason Sudak took video of our entire set:<br />

<br />
This Sunday there is another exciting Ginkgo show! This one is the full band debut of the Rebel Kind, which is our friend Autumn Wetli's band. We are longtime fans of Autumn's songs (Autumn is also a member of Bad Indians and the 7" we put out features an awesome song written by her). So it's a joy to be playing with her! The band features Autumn on guitar & vocals, myself (Shelley) on bass, Amber Fellows on drums and Jules Nehring (also of Bad Indians etc) on electric guitar.<br />
<br />
This show is our live debut, and we will also be playing at Totally Awesome Fest 9 on Friday April 26 at VG Kids in Ypsilanti. <br />
<br />
Additionally, the Rebel Kind has an LP coming out on the Life Like! And so does Shells! Our records should be done around the same time so stay tuned for record release details. We were hoping they might be done by the Life Like Festival this week but of course these things always take longer than expected. But also we are still both playing at the Life Like Festival which is going to be great, so make sure to come to that this Friday April 12 at the Elks Lodge! (see a couple posts down for details!)<br />

NEW (recent) SHELLS TAPE!<br />
<br />
Meditation via guitar / guitar via meditation. Shells has been playing shows since Noise Camp 2011. It is similar to Old Night (Ginkgo #4) but slightly different. This is the second cassette release under the Shells name (the first for some unknown reason has never been listed online but it's Ginkgo #9, and is available upon request). <br />
<br />
This tape was recorded by Shells in Ypsilanti and later mixed by Warn Defever in Detroit. It turned out nice! <br />
<br />
Shells is working on an upcoming release for Lifelike which we are really excited about. Stay tuned for more details!<br />
<br />
The 12/12/12 tape is available for order below, as well as at Encore Records and at shows. Contact shelleyginkgo at gmail with any questions.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
It started off with the <a href="http://soundcloud.com/bluescontrol">Blues Control</a> and Shells show we did at the Work Gallery here in Ann Arbor, which was co-presented by <a href="http://wcbn.org/">WCBN</a> and <a href="http://facebook.com/theeqmc">EQMC</a>. Blues Control were really great, and the Shells set went pretty well too. <a href="http://charlieslick.com/">Charles Slick</a> did a light installation with Shells for the second time. Blues Control had projections that were really nice too. Work Gallery was a perfect space for this show!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CGk4E06uJJo/UFURVdkrGOI/AAAAAAAAASY/KOtFOK5kJcc/s1600/2012-09-06+23.47.12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CGk4E06uJJo/UFURVdkrGOI/AAAAAAAAASY/KOtFOK5kJcc/s200/2012-09-06+23.47.12.jpg" width="200" /></a>When we were setting up for the show, we had to move some of the art on display out of the way, including this pile of dust on a pedestal. It miraculously survived the show.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Here's a video of Blues Control performing at Work:<br />

<br />
<br />
Then the next day, Friday, was the opening of a really amazing exhibit at <a href="http://mocadetroit.org/">MOCAD </a>called Vision in a Cornfield. It's a large scale collaboration between three different Detroit collectives: art-rockers Destroy All Monsters, Afro-futurists Ogun, and modern robot builders Apetechnology. This was by far my favorite exhibit I've seen at MOCAD so far. It really nailed all of your senses - it smelled like a cornfield! I saw real bugs on the corn too. I don't want to give too much away, but I really recommend going to see it if you can. (if you really want to read more about it, you can do so <a href="http://metrotimes.com/arts/cars-punk-jazz-amp-deities-1.1371710?pgno=1">here</a>.)<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
After MOCAD headed over to Jumbo's to see Blues Control, along with Protomartyr and the Intended. This show was pretty much the opposite of the Blues Control show in Ann Arbor, in a good way. BC played an equally great but really different and more freaked out set.<br />
<br />
I had a great time hanging with Blues Control, we all stayed at Larry's house and ended their visit to Michigan with a trip to <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/goodwells-natural-foods-market-detroit">Goodwell's</a>, one of my favorite spots. A vegan pocket sandwich with avocado + a green smoothie = recipe for feeling amazing. <br />
<br />
After BC left for Chicago, I headed over to Dally in the Alley to hang out and try to register some voters. The Ginkgo Voter Registration Drive has been going on for a few months now, and will continue until the deadline to register (which is October 6th). If you would like to register, ask me or come into Encore Records where we also have a voter registration clipboard set up.<br />
Registering at Dally was pretty tough going, but it was a fun time hanging out there.<br />
<br />
After Dally headed over to the Destroy Compound for Noise Camp 18. Noise Camp is a tradition brought to us by <a href="http://timestereo.com/">Time Stereo</a>. It's been happening since 1994! I've only been to the last 4 or 5, but it's always a fun time. I played at it last year as Shells (which was basically the first Shells show) and this year Warn asked me to play with him in his new band XOXOWAR. We played first.<br />

Wiccans played a fireside set near the end of the night and were joined by a random dude with a battery powered amp and electric guitar who tried to jam along. Only at Noise Camp.<br />
<br />

Noise Camp concluded with the traditional Princess Dragonmom set/cardboard bush destruction, and afterwards I headed back to Ann Arbor. <br />
