Kyle Pepitone and Nate Williams sat down with Dan Avidan and Jim Roach to talk about their latest musical project Shadow Academy as well as their other upcoming musical projects.
After spending years together in the studio working in a producer / artist capacity with musical duo Ninja Sex Party, Jim Roach and Dan Avidan realized they had a shared affinity for many older bands that all shared themes of big music, big guitars, and even bigger songs. During the early months of COVID-19, Jim started sending Dan new music to work on mainly to pass some time, and in turn, Dan would work on lyrics and melodies that were primarily inspired by the classic books he was spending his downtime reading. From Dracula to Moby Dick, many of the song themes were inspired by these classics, as seen with the debut single "White Whale." "After writing our first song, "White Whale," together we knew we were onto something special" recalls Jim - and thus Shadow Academy was born.
