Alternative rockers Shakeout unveil “Small Talk” video!

Based in Yonkers, NY, alternative rock duo Shakeout have dropped a special video for their single “Small Talk”. This song shows the intricate set-up of the band, giving viewers and listeners alike an inside look at how they perform live.

A different approach to a live show, Shakeout relies on live looping to achieve their distinctive alternative sound. The “Small Talk” video shows firsthand how this process works. Playing through the track and showing the looping at different angles so viewers can see from all facets. 

“Shakeout is our way to push the boundaries of what two musicians can accomplish in a live setting. “Small Talk” is a perfect example of a song that includes all the elements of a full band such as guitar riffs, a bass line, drums, and vocals that even include harmonies performed by just the two of us. None of the guitar parts, bass lines, or vocal harmonies are pre-recorded. We have really pushed ourselves to be a live rock band. But most importantly, we're just two guys looking to write songs that are fun. And we just want to have fun playing them”.
