SHEBAD live at Eddie's Attic!
SHEBAD is the creative spirit of visual artist and vocalist Claire Voy and multi-instrumentalist Ciccio Spagnolo. Hailing from Guelph, Ontario, Canada, their music plays on the exploratory realm of Indie-Soul, characterized by jazz-influenced melodies, danceable basslines, and transcendent layered vocals. Their sound is a synthesis of influences like Stevie Wonder, Hiatus Kaiyote, Amy Winehouse, Daft Punk, and Erykah Badu, making the music compelling and curious with lyrics from the heart. CBC’s Laila Biali aptly describes their sound as “Music that exists in a sonic world of its own”.
The band released their debut album Music is the Answer on Nov. 1st, 2024 to extremely positive feedback including a 9/10 album rating from music critic Giggens, making Spotify’s Best of Fresh Finds Canada 2024 and claiming the 19th slot on RANGE’s top 50 Canadian Albums of 2024, as well as praise from CBC’s Tom Power, Laila Biali, Rohit Joseph and more. The album’s lead single ‘Black Walnut’ made Anthony Fantano’s ‘The Needle Drops best songs of the week’ and charted #5 on TOKIO HOT 100 for two-weeks straight leading to them taking 88th in J-WAVE’s Top 100 songs of 2024.
Performing live, SHEBAD takes the stage in a 5-piece arrangement with Ciccio Spagnolo (Bass/Keys/Flute), Claire Voy (Vox/Guitar/Synth), Emil White (Keys/Bass/Sax/Vox), Bella Tian (Keys/Synth/Vox), and Emmitt Leacock (Drums/MC). The variation between danceable and emotive songs creates a dynamic and memorable experience for listeners, making SHEBAD a lovely surprise for folk, jazz, funk, and groove listeners alike. The band has performed direct support slots for Kamasi Washington, Thievery Corporation, Anomalie, and The Free Label, and played festivals including Rochester International Jazz Festival, Toronto International Jazz Festival, Mariposa, Hillside, and Sunfest.
Managed by Amit Mehta of Good Company Productions and represented by Kyle Noone of Royal Artist Group, SHEBAD continues to grow their profile with releases and festival appearances.
