Presenting Shine, the musical venture that captures the essence of England in the dynamic era of the 90s.
Against the backdrop of a nation united by the rallying cry of "Let's av it!", Shine emerged as a potent force, channeling the spirit of soul into the heart of their music. In the early 90s, Shine were a standout live band who navigated the currents of clubland music, where their soul-infused melodies sometimes got lost in the dance floor soundscape.
However, by 1996, the second incarnation of Shine underwent a transformative journey, reconnecting with the roots of its members deeply entrenched in the British mod movement. This renaissance paid homage to Acid Jazz, embracing the soulful tones of African-American soul, jazz and blues, enriched by the fiery echoes inspired by The Jam.
