2. Shinlifter - Close Encounters youtu.be/Dq4BfNqUA9M?... The band I've seen more than any other exemplify the scene with @oliviafurey.bsky.social proving good and hyperspecific lyrics are still possible and @balumcarnes.bsky.social drumming driving it on shinlifter.bandcamp.com/track/close-...

Hey @balumcarnes.bsky.social and @oliviafurey.bsky.social next year you are going to be as big as Geese! Maybe you'll avoid the curse of becoming co-worker music, too. This is a lovely thoughtful review

Abigail loves her new #shinlifter EP. Be like Abigail… shinlifter.bandcamp.com

Shinlifter - ‘Close Encounters’

Congratulations to Edinburgh's #Shinlifter on release of their debut EP Other Conspiracies.

Having been to the cassette EP launch of Shinlifter and Vexations this evening, we have never been more back! Chatting with guys from Cuttings and Big Lanes there I realized that Edinburgh had more bands of merit than England which is astonishing

Getting up to leave Shinlifter in the pub and we gifted our table Nicola Sturgeon and Alan Cummings, sometimes the Blue Blazer feels like the Mended Drum

I can't really express how good Shinlifter are live, navigating Fugazi/Buzzcocks/Sonic Youth/Slits/Bikini Kill but also super contemporary. Everyone is disgustingly talented.

I promised myself before I left the house that I wouldn't get into an onstage argument with @oliviafurey.bsky.social but I was slandered and here we are again...

my band Shinlifter have their EP launch on Saturday and with impeccable timing our Instagram has been hacked so we’ve lost our main channel for promoting it. if anyone wanted to help share this brilliant poster by my pal Grace there, here or elsewhere we’d be very grateful!

FAO weirdo sound enthusiasts: last week didnae end well? Ensure this week does by grabbing tix to the first edition of TFEH’s autumn/winter programme at @fruitmarket.bsky.social !!! www.ticketsource.co.uk/tfeh/tfeh-pr... #Edinburgh #ExperimentalMusic #Noise #FreeImprov #Drone #Avant #SundayFunday

Braved Storm Amy to head to the Onion Cellar at Leith Depot last night. On the bill were Those Unfortunates, Shinlifter and Lung Leg. Some nice terrace singalongs from Housemartinesque Those Unfortunates. Highlight for me were Shinlifter whose singer was […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Delighted to announce that I am now the lead singer of Shinlifter (job share, 0.25FTE)

It is my honest, sincere and personally held belief that Simon Harris should resign from politics. What happened to Harvey Sherratt is a national shame, and he needs to accept his share of responsibility for not making good on scoliosis promises. #spéirghorm #ireland

Guess I’m giving up on trying to control lighting conditions, but I probably have to rethink my lenses for these situations. 🫣 #gigphotography #dark

The words “Please can you DON’T?!” were immediately conveyed here by poor Calum, drummer for Shinlifter. Sorry, pal. They asked me to. Just pretend I’m not here. 🥴

Interesting atmospheric conditions down at Sneaky’s last Saturday. Bear with me, kids. It’ll take me some time to uncrunch these but they will be extremely weird when I’m done. And by “weird” I mean probably good? Hopefully? #gigphotography #sneakypetes #edinburgh @oliviafurey.bsky.social#gigphotography

When you've got the Shinlifter up loud

I had great fun with The Chunks and Shinlifter last night. Shinlifter in particular were quite astonishing. #livemusic #edinburgh #fuzzbatgigs #sneakypetes

Hit the crowded streets of Edinburgh last night to see a couple of bands at Sneakys. Great sets from Shinlifter and Chunk. Appreciated the optional cat drawing on my hand as my entry stamp. Whole thing organized by Fuzz Bat. #edinburgh #gigs #livemusic #music
