band from the North of England playing alt pop wonders in a fantastically slick and cool style are SHIELDS. After getting to grips with their debut EP we listed them as one of our One’s to Watch for 2013 and can confirm their live show is particularly entertaining. We had to have them as Band of the Month and they agreed to make us a little video for the feature especially.

If you have not had the pleasure of their ‘Kaleidoscope’ EP entering your ear drums we suggest you head over here. Shields were also part of the ‘New Blood’ in Artrocker’s January issue.
