Shamir

Las Vegas based artist Shamir continues to evolve and expand his sound with each new release.  I first caught him a few years ago at Fun Fun Fun Fest touring his debut album "Ratchet," a fun collection of hard-to-pin-down dance pop numbers and R&B.  He was young, excited, delightful, and maybe a little overwhelmed by it all.  Since then, i caught the artist again at SXSW when he began adding a little country and western flavor into his mix, and his output has remained both eclectic and prolific ever since.  Upcoming new album "Heterosexuality" drops this Friday, and finds the artist dabbling in industrial production and '90s alt-rock, and tackling themes of queerness and identity.  Check out "Cisgender" below and pre-order the album here from AntiFragile Music.
