Shorn was formed in a small-town Kansas coffee shop in February of 2004. Cassie and Jake clicked from the very beginning, and immediately began writing about their own life experiences. Their music is characterized by heavy rock guitar, ethnic instruments, and a classically trained female voice. Their songs are sometimes eerie, angry, mysterious, raw, playful, or even seductive. There are many dimensions to all of their songs, but rest assured; each of their songs is instantly recognizable as Shorn. Their fans range from ages 12 to 76, which speaks to their diversity. From low-key shows like those to heavy electric shows at the Kansas State Fair, or opening for Eve 6, Shorn has adapted and risen above to fit any venue they play.
“It would be easy to make glib comparisons and say they sound similar to....but it would be pointless and do them a disservice. The first thing that grabbed my attention was the vocals, which have a dominant presence and make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck.”
