Shonali's musical roots developed in Nashville, Tennessee. She began making music on an 8-track recorder with her childhood best friend Michelle Dubois and soon, under the name Ultrababyfat, they became indie rock darlings, opening up for acts like Pavement and PJ Harvey while she was in law school. With nine full length albums under her belt, including three by her current band, Tigers and Monkeys, as well as her 2011 full-length solo-debut 100 Oaks Revival, Shonali is over the moon about sharing her new critically acclaimed second solo release, One Machine At A Time with the world.
In Jason Ferguson (Qobuz) words "For One Machine, though, her approach explicitly looks backward, both to the sound and spirit of the pre-internet underground and further to her own family; the album is dedicated to the memory of her recently deceased father. “Firefly” speaks directly to her father’s impact on her, and, rather than being some maudlin memorial, the song’s epic acoustic guitar arrangement is bolstered by a propulsive drum machine and soaring multi-tracked harmonies that give the track heft and complexity. It’s the highlight of a trio of songs in the middle of the album that beautifully illuminate the diversity of sonics at play here; “Boom Boom in This Sad Soundtrack” dabbles in mildly psychedelic shoegaze textures, while the title track evokes a twangy sort of classic rock. Elsewhere, “Did I Mess This Up” is a jaunty pop tune that wouldn’t have been out of place on a long-lost Paisley Underground compilation and “Radio Days are Coming Back” is the sort of explicit call to glory days that Gen X indie rockers don’t get enough of."
