Shy Child Album Details

Lo-fi electro pop duo Shy Child have emerged from hibernation with new album 'Liquid Love' due in March.

Formed by Pete Cafarella and Nate Smith, Shy Child began life gigging around New York in the year 2000. Determinedly lo-fi the pair shaped a set with simple melodies and fun rhythms, becoming cult favourites in the process.

Debut album 'Please Reconsider Our Time' was released in 2002, and established Shy Child's songwriting talent. Simple to the point of naivety, the duo's songs recalled J-Pop but have a real New York sensibility.

Since then Shy Child have toured the world, released two more albums. However since the release of 'Noise Won't Stop' in 2007 the duo have been silent, busy with touring responsibilities that have seen them support Muse and Klaxons.

Taking time off to rest from continual touring, now Shy Child are back. Forthcoming album 'Liquid Love' finds them on confident form, eager to experiment yet always remaining familiar.

The album will be released through the Wall of Sound label - themselves celebrating fifteen years in the music industry - with a host of tour dates planned for 2010.

Until then, however, fans will have to make do with a new free download. Taken from their forthcoming album 'Criss Cross' is available to download right now from their official site.

There's no hidden tricks, no need to sign up to a newsletter you will never read - Shy Child are giving this away through the goodness of their heart. Expect some more free goodies as the release date draws closer!

Shy Child are due to release their new album 'Liquid Love' on March 1st.
