The Rat Pack had it; Shaye does too - absolute magic when they perform together.
When you're onto something as magical and beautiful as Shaye, where true personalities and warmth intermix with an innate knack for entertaining and almost divine vocal connection, then you run with it.
Their voices sound gorgeous together, whether harmonizing or taking the lead - Dav's with its sexy rock quality and Kim's with its raspy, country feel. But it's how they perform that has enthralled audiences from coast-to-coast. Funny as all hell, they are a refreshing combination of old fashioned values and contemporary chutzpah.
After the release of ?Lake of Fire,? Tara left Shaye to spend time with her family. Kim and Dav loved the sisterhood of working in partnership and wanted the spirit of the group to live on, so continue to perform together as Shaye. Still active as solo artists, Kim released her first Christmas album (I Love Santa) in ?06, and Damhnait has been writing for other artists and for the TV show Instant Star, and will release her fourth solo record, ?Lights Down Low,? in ?08.
In the Spring of 2009 Dav and Kim announced they would no longer continue working under the band name Shaye and have thanked their fans for all of their support!

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
Hi there - hope you guys are doing well...Just wanted to let you (and your fans) know that "Beauty" made my list of Top Ten Atlantic Canadian favourites from the past decade. It's published in my regular newspaper column here in Cape Breton, and also available on my MySpace blog: http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&bID=499141088 Thanks for all the great tunes and times over the years, ladies. Hope to see you both back in Cape Breton sometime soon!
