Rising from the New York City underground, the music of Shadows Lie is a dark, intense blend of heavy guitars reminiscent of Staind, Portishead-like electronics, Days of the New type acoustic guitars and vocal stylings ranging from Tori Amos to Incubus. The songwriting is distinctive and intensely emotional, yet concise and mature at the same time.

Singer/songwriter Kira Leigh and producer/songwriter Cary Tamura (CT) have been described as "Talented songwriters who fuse guitar rock with electronica" by Bob Leone, Director of the Songwriter's Hall of Fame and were selected to perform in the SHOF Showcase in 2005.  They also have worked with Multi-platinum Producer/Engineer, Bill Klatt (Days of The New, Garbage, Jay-Z) who said about Shadows Lie, "This is one of the most talented and promising new rock acts to come out of New York City in years. They are a truly talented songwriting duo with a unique sound that is all their own."

Their 2007 debut LP entitled "Echoes" is written, recorded, produced and performed by Kira and CT. The fusion of Kira's  lyrics and vocal melodies and CT's guitar, bass, programming and production work form the basis of a fresh sound that uniquely melds sonic strength and emotional vulnerability.  Kira and CT site among their diverse influences, Tori Amos, Tool, Incubus, Alice In Chains, Bjork and The Crystal Method.  The often times aggressive yet hauntingly beautiful music  that results, invokes comparisons to Alanis Morissette, fellow female-fronted rock bands Evanescence and Lacuna Coil.

For their live show and for the music to come, Kira and CT are joined by Frank Grullon on guitars while Marco Britti is on drums.
