First Listen: Is Remy Shand back?

Winnipeg, Manitoba born singer Remy Shand jumped into the spotlight in 2002 with his soulful falsetto and the irresistible Motown-released song, “Take a Message.”  With the wind at his back, Shand was the recipient of high expectations, with his new legion of fans eagerly anticipating his sophomore album.  Originally slated to be called A Day In the Shade, the disc never released.  And, unfortunately, the talented young singer disappeared almost as quickly as he arrived.

Shand’s many fans had a gasp of joy earlier this week when Shand posted a few cuts of various levels of completion, most notably the track “Where Are We Going?,” his remake of a song originally recorded 40 years ago by Marvin Gaye and co-written by New Jersey songwriter Larry Mizell with ambient music artist Edward Larry Gordon. The song has the kind of old school groove that Shand’s fans would expect, with vocals that have an older, slightly wearier edge to them than his 2002 release.

Take a listen to “Where Are We Going” and tell us what you think.
