Detriot trio Royal Hoax have already started turning heads in the US with their truly infectious brand of alt-pop. Now they’re looking to UK audiences to put on their dancing shoes with their video for lead single ‘Shiver Shake’.
The video, which brilliantly pokes fun at the internet craze for flashmobbing, features a host of furry creatures and mall shoppers getting their groove on to the mega-catchy tune, before inviting watchers to learn the ‘Shiver Shake’ dance and upload their own videos at shivershakeit.com.
The fun loving three piece are looking to release their debut album in the UK around Valentine’s Day. There’ll be more tracks and videos to enjoy in the lead up to the LP release, but in the meantime get involved, find a video camera/camera phone and get your very own ‘Shiver Shake’ on.
The band are also known in their local community for their ‘Rock4Hunger Tour’, where they perform free concerts at schools and colleges across the City of Detroit before hosting canned food drives and donating massive chunks of their merchandise sales to Gleaners, a local food bank. Since starting the tour they have played at over 30 schools to around 25,000 students, supplying over 30,000 free meals to those who need them. The state of Michigan has one of the USA’s worst economies and Royal Hoax are doing their bit to help out where they can.
