Bloodwire

Based out of Oakland, California, Bloodwire began in 2001 when Shawn Brice,

formally of the acclaimed goth/industrial outfit, BATTERY, wrote an instrumental

piece for I-Li Chang as a gift. I-Li was so moved by his music that she immediately

wrote lyrics and melody for the song. She sang this newly formed song to Shawn as

a gift back to him. Soon, this shy girl developed a taste for creating music inspired

by this talented musician. The transformation began and Bloodwire emerged.



Since then, this compelling duo has been creating music together, working on their

first album titled “Transformation”, due to be out in Spring 2005. Their songs are

deeply personal and yet accessible, ranging from dreamy to raucous - sometimes

in the same song! They are equally comfortable creating epic grooves or succinct

pop songs, always with an emotional core. The amalgamation of I-Li's rich and sultry voice with Shawn's technical acumen creates a

musical experience that is heart-pounding and electric, indeed where heart and circuit are intertwined.



In 2006, the brilliant Patrick Harte (The Rosemarys, Mellow Drunk) was recruited to play drums. Their new EP 'Wreckage' is available now at bloodwire.bandcamp.com
