REVIEW OF IPO VANCOUVER AUG. 2009: "Ari Shine has had much success already. His deep involvement in both singing and song writing has earned him critical acclaim and widespread mention, as well as collaboration with other artists. A solo act with a guitar and a harmonica, Ari’s songs break the mould of acoustic singer-songwriter with the passionate intensity of his voice. He must have as many stories and songs as he has tattoos. Ari proves that you don’t always need backup to rock the stage, and that rocking your emotions is something that is also favourable in a solo set as well. His skull note t-shirts and pins are the perfect representation of his bad-ass heartfelt music." -BACKSTAGE VANCOUVER

"You can imagine Rhett Miller singing this material, such is its bruised earnest romanticism and infectious good natured vibe. There’s sensitivity to it but also an unfazed power pop bravura: one track is entitled “Everybody Wants Me (But I Want You)”. It’s not quite as acoustic as its title suggests but listening to it you get the feeling that’s a good thing, the instrumentation is fleshed out and fits together perfectly. “End of My 20s” is all angsty youthful disaffection and closing track “Rock and Roll Shoes” channels the exuberance of early Buddy Holly. It’s all very catchy and easy to listen to." -AMERICANA UK

"...the perfect debut album- sparkling with with, invention and some truly memorable pop tunes." -ROCK AND REEL

"...incredibly well crafted vignettes..." -CLASSIC ROCK UK

"Sharp, clean guitar pop featuring hook after hook after irresistible hook." -TWANGVILLE (review of SXSW showcase)

"First song on his EP is about selling out to music and movie moguls in Los Angeles, but its riffs and/or hooks can be traced back to the Raspberries and Mott the Hoople." -VILLAGE VOICE

"....the chewy, riffsmart arrogance and sunshine combination prove to be instantly likeable whacks to the gut for fans of early Costello and the Knack/ Raspberries school of gritty, radio-friendly guitar pop." - WHISPERIN AND HOLLERIN

"Indeed, there is some of that smart prog-pop here but he's a little earthier than art-pop, sounding occasionally like Matthew Sweet or Big Star." -THE PROVINCE

"Ari won the John Lennon songwriting contest. He’s a good singer, too, delivering with skill and just enough of a bitter attitude to sell his songs of relationships gone wrong. On A Force of One, Ari Shine is a force to be reckoned with." -POP MATTERS

"If those names make the rock lobe of your brain tingle, then you'll want to run to your computer and immediately order a copy of Ari Shine's A Force of One. Like the Rocket Summer, Shine plays all the instruments himself and sings almost all the parts, but he never falls prey to the one-man band sickness." -ALL MUSIC GUIDE

   About Ari Shine
BIOGRAPHY

Singer/Songwriter Ari Shine hit the ground running with the 2006 release of "Age/Occupation", immediately earning comparisons from Village Voice and Time Out to a young Elvis Costello. His full length "A Force of One" was produced by Sparks/Beach Boys engineer Earle Mankey. It racked up critical acclaim and made the final cut of Grammy nomination ballots. Ari is currently working on his new album with Noah Shain (Orson, Atreyu, As Tall as Lions) which will be released in early 2010. Drumming on the record is handled by Chris Cano (Orson, Ozomatli).

Showcasing the rootsier side of his sound, "Everybody Wants Me (But I Want You)" from his follow up Acoustic EP has earned Gold Rotation on Canada's Galaxie Radio and Song of the Day at American Songwriter Magazine's Songspace. "4 Covers" was the first time Shine has released versions of material by other artists. The UK has been friendly as well. Rolling Stones mentor and producer Andrew Loog Oldham made Ari's Waterloo Sunset his pick of the week on Sirius. Ari has performed on the BBC and at The Cavern Club, birthplace of the Beatles (even earning a mention in Spencer Leigh's historical book about the club).

Armed with guitar, harmonica and songs, Shine is comfortable in front of all different types of audiences from folk to indie to punk. He also brings out his full band to up the intensity level. A favored support act, Ari has opened for Ian Hunter, Great Lake Swimmers, Rhett Miller (Old 97s), Silversun Pickups, New Years Day, GOB, Kris Rowe (the Ataris), Redd Kross, Gin Blossoms, Peter Case, John Doe, Fastball and Liam Finn. TV viewers have heard him, too—Shine’s songs have been heard on Veronica Mars, Kyle XY, De Grassi: The Next Generation, and many other shows.

Ari is also a sought after collaborator who has written with many artists and bands including Jennifer Finch, Josie Cotton, Adrienne Pierce, Gaby Moreno and many others. His co-writes have been heard on CMT, Starbucks Instore Radio, KCRW and CBC radio. As co-writer of Spanish track “Escondidos,” Shine also won Song of the Year honors in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest. He is endorsed by Fender Guitars.
