Shawn James & The Shapeshifters have exceeded their Kickstarter campaign, raising $15,000 after seeking $10,000 towards their upcoming album The Gospel According to Shawn James & The Shapeshifters.
“We can’t believe we exceeded our goal by $5,000! We’re very lucky to have such supportive fans and we could never thank them enough. We’ve been over at Sound Source studio the past week tracking the new album with Adam Putman and it’s sounding huge already without even being mixed & mastered. These new songs will bring lots of heavy energy live and we can’t wait to get back out on the road this April.”

SHAWN JAMES & THE SHAPESHIFTERS are a 5-piece rock band from Fayetteville, Arkansas. At first glimpse, you might confuse them with a bluegrass or metal band. Influenced by every type of music, and growing up in several heavy and folky bands, the sound is not what you would expect. With a different vibe for every EP released so far, they truly embody the phrase “shapeshifters.”
