SHIRAZ LANE
“The uncompromised modern-day heirs of Peace, Love, and Rock N’ Roll were founded in 2011 in Vantaa, Finland. Shiraz LAne resonates through their double-edged guitar sound. Percussive ground pounding, and supersonic melodies.”
Hailing all the way from Finland, Shiraz Lane features Hannes Kett on Lead Vocals, Jani Laine on Lead Guitar, Miki Kalske on Rhythm Guitar, Joel Alex on Bass, and Ana Willman on Drums. The band originally started in 2011 but after a few years of searching the current lineup came together and found the harmony they had been looking for. The 5-piece finds Inspiration from Guns N' Roses, The Darkness, Skid Row, Aerosmith, Michael Jackson, funk, metal, and the list goes on. Those inspirations seep through their work. Just when you know how the song is going to play out, they add in an element that surprises yet delights.
Shiraz Lane has just released ‘Do You’, the first single off of their upcoming EP. “This groovy first single is molded of love and lust and will stick in your head for days,” shared the band. It’s upbeat, gives you the butterflies, and hits you with a stellar guitar solo. Listen to it below and look up our other favorite Shiraz Lane songs: ‘Tidal Wave’, ‘The Crown’, and ‘People Like Us.’
