The Shivers, Alex Dupree, Famous Letter Writer

Despite frequent turnover in his band, the Shivers, singer-songwriter Keith Zarriello has kept the project going strong since the early 2000s. His sound leans toward folk filtered through a cosmopolitan, urban lens. Hints of chamber music, blues, New Age, electro-pop and soul permeate his songs. There’s also a deep sense of romanticism. To wit: Emmy-winning actor and indie-music enthusiast Aaron Paul enlisted all of the guests at his wedding to learn the lyrics to the song “Beauty” as a surprise for his bride, Lauren Persekian. The band’s most recent album, Grey Romantic, was released in February. Catch the Shivers on Sunday, June 18, at the Monkey House in Winooski. Alex Dupree and locals Famous Letter Writer add support.
