Our Take

In a universe not so far, far away, the Shires have emerged as the reigning royalty of British country music. Their latest offering, 'My Universe', is a delightful concoction of toe-tapping tunes and heartfelt ballads that will have you reaching for the nearest pint of ale.

From the opening track, "Beats To Your Rhythm," the duo effortlessly blends traditional country twang with pop sensibilities, creating a sound that is as refreshing as a pint of cider on a hot summer's day. Ben Earle's smooth vocals are a perfect complement to Chrissie Rhodes' angelic harmonies, creating a musical chemistry that is simply out of this world.

Tracks like "Daddy's Little Girl" and "Not Even Drunk Right Now" showcase the Shires' ability to tug at the heartstrings while still keeping things light and fun. It's like being on a rollercoaster of emotions, but with a banjo player serenading you through the ups and downs.

But don't be fooled by their country roots - the Shires are not afraid to experiment with their sound. Tracks like "Drive" and "A Thousand Hallelujahs" feature electronic beats and synths that add a modern twist to their traditional sound.

In conclusion, 'My Universe' is a stellar album that cements the Shires' status as one of the most exciting acts in British music today. So grab your cowboy boots and let the Shires take you on a journey through their musical universe - you won't be disappointed. Cheers, darlings!

About the artist

The Shires

SHIRES, the dynamic duo hailing from the lush green countryside of Hertfordshire, are the epitome of modern folk-pop perfection. Comprised of singer-songwriters Ben Earle and Crissie Rhodes, SHIRES burst onto the scene in 2013 with their debut album Brave. Since then, they have been delivering infectious melodies and heart-wrenching lyrics that tug at the heartstrings of fans worldwide. Their unique blend of country, folk, and pop sensibilities has earned them critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base. Their harmonies are as tight as a pair of skinny jeans, and their songwriting chops are sharper than a well-strung banjo. With each album, SHIRES push the boundaries of their genre, infusing their music with fresh, modern twists that keep listeners coming back for more. But don't let their sweet, countryside charm fool you - SHIRES are no strangers to edgier themes and experimentation. From love and heartbreak to political commentary and societal issues, SHIRES tackle it all with a raw and unapologetic honesty that sets them apart from the cookie-cutter pop stars of today. And let's not forget their electrifying live performances, where Ben and Crissie hold court with a magnetic energy that is impossible to resist. In a world full of manufactured pop stars and auto-tuned mediocrity, SHIRES stand out as a breath of fresh air - a reminder that real music, with real emotion, can still move us in ways we never thought possible. So do yourself a favour and dive into the enchanting world of SHIRES - you won't be disappointed.
