Antenna Shoes

Tim Regan is a busy, busy guy. Along with his tenure in two different bands in two different cities -- he's the keyboardist and co-lead singer in the Memphis-based neo-psychedelic outfit Snowglobe and a touring utility player in Austin's chipper twee popsters Oh No! Oh My! -- the Memphis, TN-based multi-instrumentalist has his own full-time project, a semi-electronic chamber pop band called Antenna Shoes. Regan started Antenna Shoes in 2005 while on a temporary hiatus from Snowglobe, during which time he also played keyboards on Sparklehorse's Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain. The first Antenna Shoes album, The Generous Gambler, was recorded with Regan handling the majority of instruments, alongside contributions (including strings and brass) from various friends. In order to tour behind the album, Regan put together a stable version of Antenna Shoes featuring himself on vocals and a variety of keyboard instruments, guitarist Luke Wright, guitarist and second keyboardist Steve Selvidge, trumpeter and flute player Nahshon Benford, bassist Brandon Robertson, and drummer Paul Taylor. ~ Stewart Mason
