It is recognized for having characteristics of electropunk, new wave, pop, lo-fi, and psychedelic music.Originally from Yuma, Arizona, Foree began calling his project Digital Leather when he moved to Tucson, where he studied American Literature at University of Arizona. He used student loan money to buy equipment. He managed to release his first three albums after recording them in his bedroom on labels such as Tic Tac Totally, Jay Reatard's Shattered Records imprint, and FDH Records. He supported this “bedroom project” with several nationwide and European tours. Sorcerer, released on Goner Records in 2008, is a half-live, half-studio record.In 2009, friend and fellow musician Jay Reatard took over managing duties for the band. Around this time Foree began working on a collection of songs in a fully operational studio. Released in September 2009 by Fat Possum Records, Warm Brother garnered positive reviews. Pitchfork, for example, referred to Foree as sui generis, calling the album a “charming curio.” Reportedly, the label did not initially support the album’s artwork, which features a shirtless man with the album name taped across his chest.In 2013, Todd Fink of The Faint joined Digital Leather as a full time keyboardist and additional recording engineer. They spent the next year and a half playing shows around Omaha and preparing a full length record with the live band recording its own parts (as opposed to Foree recording all the parts himself as was done on previous output). During this time Foree managed to also write and record a Split LP with Madison, WI's The Hussy for Southpaw Records. The Digital Leather side is a more laid back and sensitive record than ever before, and Foree also added keyboard on The Hussy's side. This was a large sonic departure for both Digital Leather and The Hussy that was critically well received. In 2014, this collaboration between Shawn Foree and The Hussy became the catalyst for Foree and The Hussy's Bobby Hussy to create their synth driven minimal wave duo TIT. The band wasted no time by instantly writing and recording their debut self titled EP 12\" over the course just 5 days while Hussy was visiting Foree's home in Omaha. FDH and Volar Records co-released the 12\" in late 2014. TIT played their first show in Omaha, NE at O'Leaver's on January 22, 2015 with Todd Fink as an additional keyboardist and Noah Kohll as the drummer."@en }
