Shadow Factory Shadow Factory

Shadow Factory are a groovy trio made up of Tom Cook, Peter Shearn and Bev Knowlden

We play original music developed by ourselves with an ear to varied and stimulating rhythm based jazz/rock/pop.

We aren’t proud and we’ll steal styles from anything we like – so don’t be surprised if you hear cajun, punk, ska, african, zeppelin or even Val Doonican influences in our music. If we think it sounds good, we’ll do it. We cover a few well known songs too, such as Walk on the Wild Side, Brubecks Take 5 and the Theme from Get Carter.

As a live band we use live loops and sampling during many of the tunes and the overall sound can be more like a five or six piece group than the mere threesome that we are!

A professionally recorded album is in the pipeline although this is still a work in progress – so you can order our sampler ep ‘Clocking In’ in the meantime featuring 3 full length tracks from the forthcoming album and a live rendition of ‘Marry Archie’. There are also tracks on our music page on this site.

Shadow Factory have been together for 3 years now and we would like to play more venues and a wider area so email peter@shadowfactory.co.uk and book us. You can also ask for more an information pack if you want to know more about what we can do for you.
