Backstory:
Short-Term Share was born in the vibrant and eclectic music scene of Seattle, Washington. The band was formed in 2010 by four high school friends who were passionate about music and inspired by their mutual love for indie rock and folk sounds. The band’s unique name was chosen to represent their belief in the ephemeral and fleeting nature of life, and their desire to share their fleeting moments of creativity with their audience.
The band had to face their fair share of struggle during the initial years. They performed in local gigs, small-time events, and were even booed off stage a couple of times. However, the band’s unwavering commitment to their craft paid off when their first album, “Ephemeral Echoes,” struck a chord with indie music lovers and critics alike and helped them establish a solid foothold in the indie music scene.
