Recorded at Anchorbaby Studio’s in Ashford, Kent with Dan Lucas (Jairus) and set for release in early 2015, ‘Maybe You Should’ is a 10-track album to follow ‘Through The War’. A little less complex in instrumentation reveals an extra level of honesty and depth to each song. The album touches on some sensitive subject matter, exploring the realities of balancing family, friends, relationships, too many shows, secrets, illness, and social pressure and expectation.
With a couple of Tanglewood guitars to hand, Scott has experimented with alternative tunings and developed a more progressive, yet intricate guitar technique to help communicate feeling and move each track. Scott and Dan Lucas agreed to use more traditional recording techniques during production in an attempt to capture a mix of studio production and live performance ensuring the integrity of each song was kept intact.
Full of honesty and heart, Scott Mallard leaves everything on stage whilst on tour giving relentless live performances to audiences in the UK & EU.
Formed in the summer of 2012, Sirens & Shelter has toured the UK four times, performing with Matt Pryor (The Get Up Kids), Allison Weiss, Dave McPherson, Luke Jackson, Hidden Cabins (USA), Ryan Mills (CAN), Giants (UK), The Satellite Year (GER), Hildamay, White Clouds & Gunfire, Sean De Burca, T // Alan, Swallow & The Wolf, 8 Foot Felix (AUS), Nizlopi and played shows in Spain on three occasions with Her Only Presence promoting a wealth of original, emotionally charged songs.
