about

Musica Style: Cinematic Rock Fusion, Funk, Rock, Soul

Musical Influences: Eddie Hazel, Tower of Power, Jimi Hendrix

Musical Inspiration: First release of four. Wanted to create a cinematic movie theme inspired album. Each song will be based on four characters, The Samurai, The Cowboy, The Seductress, & The Villain. Each track shall in a way be a theme song for each character as to paint a picture of their persona. “Iron Fist” is the theme of The Samurai.

Artist Statement: Iron Fist is just one of those songs that’s really fun to play because it just feels good under your fingers. The machine gun like upbeat hits and the total drive of this song is really a great testament to the overall sound of Shots Fired. I’m really excited for this release and the ones that come to follow because it’s really going to showcase what this band is all about.

Track Description: DJ Williams’ Shots Fired comes out swinging with a hard-driving funk-rock tune “Iron Fist.” The track is the first release in a four-part cinematic movie theme-inspired album. “Iron First” depicts the persona of ‘The Samuari’ with Williams wielding the sword in his Jimi Hendrix meets Eddie Hazel-inspired guitar work. The groove is accentuated with sharp Tower of Power-like horn punches provided by Nick Gerlach, Scott Flynn and Andre Mali. The song features a myriad of heavy hitters including Joe Tatton of The New Mastersounds on keyboards, Dan Africano on bass, and Kowan Turner on drums. Shots Fired will release one song every month leading up to the album's full drop in August 2020.
