The awesomely nice people of Komakino Fanzine wrote a review of our first Cassette EP "Jumping Fences & Cutting Corners"! " Camera Shy - Jumping Fences and Cutting Corners (7tx K7 - Best Kept Secret 'o7 ) - Excellent tape cassette label Best Kept Secret still rocks - very spartan aesthetics and inspired artists, - ultra-unknown and generous hearted. For this round, we got the tape of a promising californian three piece (and if You get a look to their pictures, apparently, they are twelve yrs old), and with a name like that - i trust You already guessed they don't play hardcore punk à la Discharge, - no, they embody the quintessence of that sentimental/soppy indiepop that used to be, just like mom did ( Isobel? he-he-he), - i mean, it's not that kind of embarassing and pretentious stuff of nowadays which turns trade edition after a couple of weeks, but rather it is about mixed old-school phlegms, and - yep - bedroom recorded. Sure, on the long distance, it feels like You need some more noise-driven parenthesis.. come on, crib Smiths' London, with lumpy guitars and a couple of titles like " Berlusconi die" and You'll be almost perfect. Somehow they made me think of Brittle Stars or of The Field Mice, - but who knows, maybe not all that much. Fate vobis" [by Antonio Olivieri] (sorry if the article is all justified weird.)

Current mood:  hopeful
Hey everyone,
Sadly, we will be taking a break for awhile. And we mean a while! We haven't really been together long, but it was fun. The reason for this, is that Kimo and Kevin will be moving from San Ramon, leaving Kyle behind. And we're not even thinking about replacing anyone. It's just not fun. Thanks to everyone that supported us for the two years we played together (yes that means all four of you! hehe), for letting us borrow your amps, mixing our earlier songs, giving us tape to put our first marracha together, listening to our excited ramblings, and just listening to the noise we made.
We do leave you with a little something, though, like a friend giving you the shirt you never returned before they leave for college. We [expect] to have a few songs released on compilatons, one for the Popsongromance. comp, and a Series Two comp which will be released near the end of June. Also, we're going to have one more Bedroom Pop Party before we go on our hiatus. The date is still TBA, but it's going to be in San Ramon again, in the residence of Andrew of Depths of the Down(HAH)!
So again, thanks to everyone. This is not the end of Camera Shy, though. When we're old enough to have inter-city practices, we'll be back and better than ever. Keep an eye out for us in the future!
"Let the sun shine, let it come. To show us that tomorrow is eventual, we know it when the day is done"
Kisses! Camera Shy

The house party was a success! Very fun! Thanks to everyone who came out. Special thanks to Timmy and Jimmy for letting us borrow some equipment! The show started off with "Depths of the Down", a tribute metal band from Poland, Andrew Young and James Frey on vocals. Then "Penis Freckle did a short performance afterwards. We have vids of most of the songs we played. Here's everything that was shot... Depths of the Down Penis Freckle (I Try to be a) Romantic Guy, dedicated to Vik Offbeat crowd making us look bad... Ideas of the Absent-Minded Mixtapes Miss Photogenic, with analyzation from James afterwards San Francisco Song After Hours sorry if the quality isn't that great. It was a fun day!

Hey! Camera Shy is on Mira el Pendulo! It's awesome, but if you don't speak spanish (like us), you may not understand it. Here's the link! Mira El Pendulo Luckily, the internet provides many translator sites! here's the article in english: The cousins of Apple Orchard! How funny,? not? These tiny tots are also lovers of the pop music, of bands as Lucksmiths (of who they take their name), Pearlfishers or Moving Pictures, among others. Kimo Francisco, Kevin Francisco and Kyle Lim do songs sencillitas, it-fi and pretty. The band was formed in the summer of the 2006, and they are so but so youths that surprises, the major is Kyle and only has 16. They learned to record direct to their computer and thus in the dormitory of the brothers Francisco these boys of Philippine ancestry, they record their cancioncitas in the tranquil one San Ramon in California. Does not it do a lot they appeared with an interview in the fanzine Bottle Rocket and I suppose that little by little acquaintances will be done. Bedroom pop pretty!
