Biography

Synth pop band Shiny Toy Guns first surfaced on a 7" single on the Positivenergy Music label. Produced by synth and bass guitarist Jeremy Dawson, the group also includes Carah Faye on vocals, Gregori Chad Petree on bass, and Mikey Martin on drums. The group's follow-up, We Are Pilots, surfaced in 2005 and was met with critical acclaim. Extensive touring and networking on various Internet social websites helped the band develop a loyal fan base, and the group signed a contract to Universal Records. The group then appeared performing "Nothing Compares 2 U" on Redline Records' 2006 Electro Goth Tribute to Prince, a compilation also featuring actress/supermodel Rebecca Romijn rather inexplicably performing "Darling Nikki."
