Louis and the Shakes Releases New Song “scared.”
London-based indie rock band Louis and the Shakes, consisting of Louis Antoniou (vocals), Jamie Lawson )guitar), Manny O'Donnell (drums) and Will Finnerty (bass), released a new song “scared.” on November 7, 2023.
The song will appear on their upcoming EP, following “BLACKOUT 9.0” released back in September.
The track was written by Louis Antoniou, Jamie Lawson, Will Finnerty, Manny O'Donnell, and Michael Smith. Produced by Michael Smith.
The band frontman Louis Antoniou said of the song, “I wrote this song after I'd come through a really difficult period in my life. I found it therapeutic in many ways, reflecting on my lowest point, the lyrics were like a healing mechanism. The song is about wanting someone to be there for you in your darkest hour. It's all about being lost, alone and ultimately scared of yourself.”- He continued to say about the sound of the song, “We were looking at quite industrial sounds by James Blake for example, specifically that percussive elements, but we also leant on bands like Foals for more contemporary indie sounds. After I sat down with Mike I explained that it felt like it needed more meat on the bone, so we bashed heads and added extra layers which now make the song what it is.”
