Bio:
“Shyboy formed in June of 1988 and quickly gained a solid following on the local club circuit. Through their hair band ballads and extremely melodic rock tunes, Shyboy was constantly booked at notable New Jersey clubs like Studio One, Murphy’s Law, and the Playpen. As their popularity grew, they were asked to open for national acts like Warrant, Trixter, Roxx Gang, American Angel, and the Red and Black featuring members of Blue Oyster Cult.The band is made up of Marc Gulli (guitars), Ray Santini (bass), Chris Oremus (vocals), and Bobby Lambert (drums). The band released their first recording in September of 1988; it was called Stop-n-Go which featured the title track “Stop -n-Go”, and the power ballad “Don’t walk away”.In 2018, Shyboy signed with FnA Records. FnA Records had the Stop-n-Go indie album remastered from the original tapes. Additionally, guitarist Marc Gulli supplied the label with 4 never before released tracks which appear on this renamed album version entitled Just Wanna Rock. Lastly, Marc supplied a live show which includes tracks that had never been recorded in any manner. Due to the length of this album, the cover of Triumph’s “Magic Power” had to be left off.Shyboy continued to play out relentlessly through June of 1990 when they decided to call it a day.The band had the time of their lives creating sing-a-long melodic tunes that the fans could sing to. The obligatory ballad or two also grace the Just Wanna Rock album. The band is excited for the fans to hear the new tunes and the remastered versions of the songs.
Album:
There's great news for fans of SHYBOY from back in the late ’80s and early '90s: they have released a new album titled "Just Wanna Rock", which includes a remastered version of the group’s debut album 'Stop'n'Go', four unreleased tracks, and a previously unreleased live show.This four piece from New Jersey made some noise in the underground US scene during the second half of the Eighties. Shyboy formed in June of 1988 and quickly gained a solid following on the local club circuit.Thanks their power ballads and extremely melodic rock tunes, Shyboy was constantly booked at notable New Jersey clubs like Studio One, Murphy’s Law, and the Playpen.As their popularity grew, they were asked to open for national acts like Warrant, Trixter, Roxx Gang, American Angel, and many other, and shared stages with Heaven, Xenon and more.The line up consisting of Marc Gulli (guitars), Ray Santini (bass), Chris Oremus (vocals), and Bobby Lambert (drums) released their debut EP "Stop'n'Go" (on cassette only) in 1988.Now it has been reissued, with guitarist Marc Gulli providing 4 never before released tracks which appear on this renamed CD version entitled "Just Wanna Rock".Lastly, Marc supplied a live show which includes tracks that had never been recorded in any manner, captured at "Murphy's Law", May 1990. By the time, drummer Bobby Lambert was replaced by John Porter.It's all fun stuff, with the typical sound of style from US melodic hard rock bands from the era, with some poppy / hair metal touches, and the obligatory power ballad.The sound quality is not the best, but for sure this is a must for collectors and some of you that were part of the scene at your teens.
