JIM SHATNER AND THE VERY IDEA

An epic collaboration with SAM HEAD
and various guests, which began around 1998
but does not follow the laws of space, time or causality.

SHATNER

SHATNER is a band, currently in space dock for repairs.

Shatner made two albums.

"Energise" (2005) was mainly recorded in a bedroom but gained enough critical acclaim for the band to start thinking they were actually being taken seriously. This confidence led to an expensive and ambitious second album"Thirteen O'Clock" (2007) with the luminary Will Jackson on board as producer.

As before, all the reviews were exceptional and CDs were touted, gigs were gigged, fun was had and from 2006-9 Shatner could be seen doing the band thing, mainly in the Leeds area.

Since February 2009 the band has been inactive, due to many pressures of one kind or another, but like ye Knights of Olde, Shatner are but sleeping. When they are needed again, they shall rise once more.


 

As well as being involved in some occasional solo projects, Jim was the songwriter/frontman in 1990s band
