Kurt Shanks
for The Salvation Army - Christchurch

NZ singer-songwriter Kurt Shanks has quickly embraced Choptober: "Count me in. Sounds like a nice lazy way of raising money for Christchurch, and I can grow some mean chops!"

Seven Flights Up is the brand new debut solo EP from Kurt (ex-stellar*).

"Seven Flights Up rewrites the book on how to make a first impression.... a fantastic release" - Real Gone (UK) review Sept 2011.

The record’s release is hard on the heels of Kurt's well-received five concert tour around NZ in July as support for internationals’ Steve Kilbey (The Church) and Ricky Maymi (Brian Jonestown Massacre).

The five-song EP includes the hooky acoustic-drive of We Shall Have Another Day, the pop-punk thrash of Shoot To Kill (which spent a month in the Radioscope chart) and the dreamy wigged-out title track Seven Flights Up. Check out the videos at youtube.com/kurtshanksmusic

Recorded at Roundhead, BigPop and Kurt's own studio, mixed by Chris van de Geer (Tim Finn, Black River Drive), produced by Wayne Bell, and featuring Andrew Thorne, Mark Hughes, Lani Purkis and Troy Shanks.
