South Shores originally started as an Austin, Texas studio project by the bands founder Sean Layton in 2006. After two years of making demos and writing songs, Sean hooked up with Dallas based major label producer Geoff Rockwell (Forever the Sickest Kids, Red Car Wire, Artist Vs. Poet) to record their ironically titled debut EP “New Beginnings” Just a week before the sessions started Sean lost everything he owned in a freak five alarm fire at his home.
