The sisters are classically-trained musicians. Emerging from the artist colony of Fort Collins on the Eastern slope of Colorado, SHEL is sophisticated and youthful, emotional and lighthearted, classic and eccentric. SHEL's engaging live show is marked with a prodigy's creativity and a veteran's instinct for entertaining. At every performance, SHEL delights audiences with their unique songwriting style and fresh, new sound.

"SHEL has delivered one of the most impressive debuts of the year..." Chris Douridas, KCRW, Los Angeles

"These girls are sooooo amazing... the Sky's the Limit!" Chris Conn, Conman Radio/Dial Global

"SHEL performs with the precision of a heat seeking missile." Paul Kennerley, Award-winning Songwriter

Sarah, 19 (Violin, Bass) - Immensely gifted as a violinist and vocalist, Sarah also shines with her bass chops. Highly creative, Sarah's diverse artistic talents have lead her to be the primary designer of SHEL's original graphics and videography. She is also the undisputed ambassador of fun at every show.

Hannah, 22 (Piano, Keyboards) An award-winning young composer and pianist, Hannah also sings and helps arrange SHEL's unique vocal harmonies. Hannah has been studying at Colorado State University for the past three years where she's concentrated on piano performance and composition.

Eva, 20 (Mandolin, Electric Mandolin, Cello) Lead vocalist and one of the band's primary writers, Eva's passion and talent for playing both acoustic and electric mandolin has received widespread recognition. Involved in every phase of arranging and production, Eva records much of the band's tracks in their home studio.

Liza, 16 (Drums, Percussion) - Liza's natural polyrhythmic ability was spotted at an early age. Not only is she the drummer for the band, Liza is equally proficient on the Djembe and Roland Hand Sonic drum. Her creative approach to percussion enables her to create the unique rhythm patterns that help define SHEL's music.

The group glides effortlessly atop the lilting, sublime voices of the Holbrook sisters, Sarah, Hannah, Eva and Liza. But Shel's appeal goes way beyond the vocals. These gals are exceptional musicians as well, with each member playing an array of instruments including violin, electric bass, piano, mandolin to drums. The sisters, which got their start backing their singer-songwriter dad Andrew, have already attracted the attention of soundtrack supervisor extraordinaire, Chris Douridas from KCRW, who listed their six-song EP, Try To Scream, as "one of the most impressive debuts of the year." Couldn't agree more.

SHEL Lyrics

Fuck all talking my nigga
You want it you got it
Just come to my section
Let me find out that you Flexin
They knock his ass off
Right before thee election

This ain't no threat it's a Promise
They Show up to house
And Put black dress on moma

I'm sorry ya ya honor
He wanted these problems
That hK done hit em

All that cappin you doing
Young nigga
I swear that you
Stunt for these hoes
Come to my city
Them Killas get busy

Feel em wit holes
He got exposed
Literally speaking
I want all the smoke
You got the bricks
Then i come through the doe
Ain't no moe talking bitch
Get on the floor
I'm gone

Nigga Kept the heat
Through the winter season
You a die first
Catch a nigga schemin
Left his body found
Pussy not breathing
Seen karma
Come back Real quick
For them fuck niggas
Thought it didnt exist
Better Send 12
No carry 6
Told the Judge dead man
Cant say shit

Fuck all that talking my nigga
You want it you got it
Just come to my section
Let me find out that you Flexin
They knock his ass off
Right before thee election

This ain't no threat it's a Promise
They Show up to house
And Put black dress on moma
I'm sorry ya ya honor
He wanted these problems
That hK done hit em
That's CaRmA

Nigga kept flexin
He all on the gram
Told her he ran up a check
She sent his location
We caught him I'n traffic
The hK done rippped through His flesh
It was broad daylight
The people was watching
But there was not
One witness left

These niggas keep Cappin
You Tryin to act hard

Nigga You wanna die for that Bitch

Singing sad songs

He was dead wrong
That was a old soul
But He died young
Tried to teach the nigga
He didn't wanna learn
He was dyin to ball
He Couldn't wait his turn
Closed casket
Ashes filled the urn
Bitch you Play wit fire
You gone get burned
Like ya

Fuck all talking my nigga
You want it you got it
Just come to my section
Let me find out that you Flexin
They knock his ass off
Right before thee election

This ain't no threat

And Put black dress on moma
I'm sorry ya ya honor

Why they be Flexin so hard for the gram
You gone turn round
And go broke for the Gram

Pull up in a van
An jump out wit sticks
Like we play in a band
CaRmAs is Slick
An I'm up in er friend
You in love with er
She playing her hand
Get you knocked off
Wit a wave of the hand
20/20 I'm a run for the Prez
The only time that I run
I ain't Scared
Slugs run through em
Like they got legs
Don't push cause I'm
Close to the edge
Glocks sing
Leave em sleep in the bed
You countin sheep
I was counting some bread
Roll down the window
I was gettin some head
Its 6
