"There's this band called Shaky Hands ... I still haven't met those guys, so we have no affiliation, but I hope we will be affiliated soon, in the future. I think eventually we'll probably have to play a show together. They played a house show a couple months ago, and it was fucking awesome." -- Hutch Harris, The Thermals, Pitchfork
Holocene Music is beyond stoked to present the debut full-length from Portland jangly-pop wunderkinds the Shaky Hands. Sliding bouncy go-go beats under shambling guitars and reedy, swooning vocals, Shaky Hands make the kind of catchy, soulful indie rock tailor-made for brokedown car stereos and river-rat boomboxes. This debut album's thirteen tracks glow with a sloppily romantic warmth that's equal parts summer sunshine and candlelit mellow, pre-party buzz and scruffy day-after fuzziness. The result is a fully formed and confident debut; a big-hearted, starry-eyed bear hug of a record full of youthful energy and tumbling vigor.
Shaky Hands formed in Portland in Fall 2003. The group began as a three-piece, with Nick Delffs (Castanets) playing guitar and singing, Colin Anderson playing drums, and Paul Culp on bass. Following Culp's departure in 2004, Mayhaw Hoons and his hair joined the band, soon followed by second guitarist Jeff Lehman. In 2006 the band recorded this debut at Portland's Sidecar Studios before bringing on Nathan Delffs as an official member that spring. Now five strong, Shaky Hands is a visceral, life-affirming live experience that will totally make you hug the person standing next to you.

夏威夷的钢棒吉他音色在整张专辑旋律中所占的比例比较多,在歌曲中也十分突出,很柔和,很欢快,阳光的旋律
