Has anyone ever heard of the shakers?

I have heard of them and come from a similar group -- Quakers.\n\nThe Shakers are an offshoot of the Religious Society of Friends (or Quakers) that originated in Manchester, England in the early 18th century. Strict believers in celibacy, Shakers maintained their numbers through conversion and adoption. Once boasting thousands of adherents, today the Shakers number less than a handful of people living in Maine.\n\nHope this helps.

Since you asked - NO, never heard of them.  And something tells me I should be glad.

I enjoy'em, as they're original and have a sound all their own.  Something direly needed, and long forgotten, in the Rock world these days.\n\nLyricaly, they're stellar, as they make you think...and most of their tunes are catchy as hell.

Theyre actually playing at the london astoria tonight. Tickets sold out in like an hour, and are going for £150+ on ebay. Im so gutted i didnt get a ticket.\n\nThere new song is on their myspace and their new album called "light grenades" is out at the end of november. Brandon boyd is the BUFFEST man in the world.

Today the Shakers number less than a handful of people living in Maine.\n\nAnd I wouldn't get your hopes up about a "Last of the Shakers" movie either.

Depends what you consider "new". These bands are nowhere new, but might be new to you being you never heard of them before:\n\nThrow Rag\nThe Candy Snatchers\nThe Riverboat Gamblers\n\nAll three can be accessed on myspace.com\n\nThey all have streaming tuneage to check out.\n\nAnd all three rule across the board.\n\nEnjoy!

I am not sure, but they may be from somewhere in the Middle East. I have never heard of them before though.

Yes. As a musician who was influenced by them I had much respect for them. I own several George Harrison cd's and feel that he was totally underrated as a song writer and guitarist.
