PRESS RELEASE: Shaneil Devaser's Debut Solo EP

posted Feb 8, 2013, 4:21 AM by Shaneil Devaser   [ updated Mar 31, 2013, 11:15 PM ]

Shaneil Devaser has released his self-titled debut solo EP featuring the debut single “Sleep All Day” which was aptly released on a public holiday where we all got to sleep in. The debut single was played on local radio stations Hitz.fm’s MET 10 and Sabah VFM, and was nominated for Best Rock Song in the VIMA 2013 Music Awards. The EP features five tunes that come from the heart of a “madman, lover and best friend”. 

Singer, songwriter and all-round musician Shaneil Devaser has been a part of the music scene since 2008. He has also a part of a few local bands, namely Crossing Boundaries, The Pilot Enterprise and his latest project, The Endleaves. His debut solo features a varying range of musical skills with him playing all the instruments available in all five tracks. The album also shows a range of emotions with “Sleep All Day” being the fun, upbeat and inviting track, while “Past Song” shows a deeper, melancholic side of the musician who is simply able to draw you in with this tune. 

Constantly working hard to better himself in the local music scene, Shaneil Devaser has proven that hard work does pay off with a song from the EP already having a confirmed spot on Hitz.fm’s MET 10 show on Saturday, February 10th, 2013. He will also be playing at lots of open mic events and featuring at local gigs throughout the month of February and March to promote the EP. 

Shaneil Devaser’s EP is now available for purchase online via the official store www.shaneildevaser.com and many other online retailers such as Amazon MP3, iTunes, Spotify, etc. and you can also get the hard copy at Merdekarya, 352 Jalan 5/57, Petaling Garden, 46000 PJ SGR MY. Hard copies will also be available at more venues such as Rock Corner, Distro Republic, Frontera Sol of Mexico, etc. soon.
