The Shins

The Shins are a popular Indie Rock band from Portland, OR that received considerable attention after their song "New Slang" was featured on the soundtrack to the movie Garden state. While the band originated in Albuquerque, New Mexico, they signed to Sub Pop Records and moved to Oregon in 2002 just before the release of their breakout album Chutes Too Narrow. Their latest album Wincing the Night Away was released in 2007 and earned them a Grammy nomination for "Best Alternative Music Album."

Keyboardist Martin Crandall was arrested in 2008 for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend.
