MINI-BIO
A brief overview of all things Shane

Shane Tutmarc has worn many hats. As a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, singer, and producer he has covered every genre from American roots music to electronic dance jams, from baroque pop to loud rock. Tutmarc initially garnered the attention of his hometown Seattle, WA with his restlessly ambitious indie-pop outfit Dolour. During this time he also branched out into producing and writing for other artists. He played bass with electro-dance sensations, United State of Electronica, before switching gears dramatically towards something a bit more organic. He formed a family band, dubbed 'The Traveling Mercies', made up of Shane, his brother and cousin. In the Summer of 2009, after a couple albums and a Southern U.S. tour with the Mercies, Tutmarc released his first solo album, Shouting at a Silent Sky. 2010 began with a move across the country which finds Tutmarc now living and working out of Nashville, TN.

Others weigh in on Shane's music

"Tutmarc combines elements of garage-rock, folk, blues, country, gospel and pop into emotionally searing songs of spiritual disquiet and personal heartache."
- Don Yates, KEXP Music Director
"In the beginning, rock 'n' roll fused country, boogie-woogie and the blues. This up-tempo alloy of country, rhythm and blues is where Tutmarc reigns. It could be called modern roots because, yeah, it's a little bit rockabilly, a little bit '50s rock, maybe some cool cat swing in there, too. On top of everything, though, is Tutmarc's spirited voice, which is at home snarling or crooning, wherever the spirit takes him."
- Shawn Telford, Seattle PI
"From the opening notes of his latest album, Shouting at a Silent Sky, it's obvious the land of Elvis and Faulkner has had a profound impact on the Seattle-born singer-songwriter. With his pencil-thin mustache and bowler hat, Tutmarc looks like he could be the star of a 1930s European film. But when he opens his mouth to sing, out comes a brass twang halfway between Dwight Yoakam and a young Steve Earle."
- Brian Barr, Seattle Weekly
