Having come together in 2006, The Shivas have made 3 full-length records, as well as toured almost a dozen times throughout the country since their formation in their teenage years. Taking the DIY approach as an holy method, they have taken pains to book their own tours, establish their own LLC for self-publication and have left labels behind in pursuit of something wholly unique. With eyes on the future, two tours and two new releases are set for the first half of 2012 in a furthering effort to bring rock and roll to Americas youth.
