About the Artist

Alexandria, Virginia-based rocker Shane Hines is an instinctively honest songwriter unafraid to expose his inner demons, a singer capable of instilling both intimacy and aggression in a singular voice, a guitarist who can outplay most but knows not to overplay and a live performer that never holds back.

5.0 out of 5 stars profound lyricist, gifted musician, March 23, 2003

By	"jskez" (VA) - See all my reviews

Sweet Soul Suicide showcases Shane Hines ability to provoke and engage listeners with profound lyrics and unexpected musical shifts that reveal his seriousness, depth, and talent as a musician. Hines' emotionally observant questions and reflections are ones that we often avoid, yet are relieved to hear them spoken out loud. His aggressive melodies and subtle hooks mark him as an intelligent and poetic musician. Sweet Soul Suicide is simultaneously substantive, musically entertaining and memorable; a rare find amidst today's predicitable lyrics and tunes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Words Worth Hearing, November 20, 2005

By	Beth Botsis (Northern Virginia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Shane's songwriting is awesomely honest and creative, both in lyrics and music. I love the genuineness and depth of his lyric writing and the music and great vocals draw you into the words. This is a great album. I've just heard his newest "Zoe" and recommend that one too... WOW!...He just gets better and better. Thanks Shane!
