Shaun Lopez
Shaun Lopez is an American music producer, composer, and musician. Life and career Shaun is a founding member and guitarist for post-hardcore band Far. After a number of local releases, including their first demo tape, '' Sweat A River, Live No Lies'', and two independent albums '' Listening Game'' and ''Quick'', they signed to Epic/Immortal Records and released their major label debut, '' Tin Cans With Strings To You''. Their second major label LP, '' Water & Solutions'', was released in 1998. Thanks to the single, "Mother Mary", they attracted a large cult following. The more melodic sound showcased on this album is increasingly cited as an influence on present-day "emo rock" bands(i.e. Thursday, Biffy Clyro, Jimmy Eat World). Certainly, it was a departure from their earlier, much more hardcore sound, though it is still far from the emo-pop that it would quickly come to inspire. After their split in 1999, Lopez briefly played in an early version of Rival Schools, headed ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
