396 views

Malone describes his music as big stadium rock, anthem songs with a huge 80s flavor; .’Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Van Halen… that’s my faves’ – says Malone – ‘their Eighties era, of course’.

Varied influences – but with Shayne’s own touch – are all over these songs, from the melodic rock of BLUE TEARS or CASANOVA on ‘Digital Soldiers’ and the AOR sprinkling keys of ‘Who’s Your Hero’ (think Italians WHEELS OF FIRE) to ballads like ‘Cowboy Rides’ (’80s BON JOVI feeling) and LEPPARD-ized ‘The Time Has Come’.

Shayne started to play guitar at his 9-year old and since has been part of various bands. He become professional at his 14 however opted for other job when got married after his twenties. But Shane never abandoned music.
Over the years he kept composing and playing, and finally decided to record his own songs, starting a solo career.

Malone manages everything himself: songwriting, all instruments & vocals, recording, production, and mix / mastering. With today’s available technology, he’s dare to replicate the multi-track layered production from the 80s, and he does it darn well.

Alongside the likes of Dallas or Jace Pawlak, Shane Malone proves that if you have the skills and knowledge of how to write & arrange an 80s inspired tune, you can create a wonderful album by yourself.
“Symphony” is pure Eighties inspired Melodic Rock / AOR, don’t miss this one.
