}}The Shadowboxers are an American pop band formed in Atlanta, Georgia. The founding members {{mdash}}Adam Hoffman (vocals, guitars), Matt Lipkins (vocals, keyboards) and Scott Tyler (vocals, guitars){{mdash}}met at Emory University in 2008.[1]

History

Formation

The band began at Emory University where Scott Tyler (from Nashville, Tennessee), Adam Hoffman (from Cedar Rapids, Iowa) and Matt Lipkins (from Larchmont, New York) met during their freshmen year in 2007.[2]

Band name

Hoffman, Lipkins and Tyler decided on the group's name in 2009. The term "shadowboxer" can be defined as someone who makes the motions of attack or defense, and for the band it represents rhythm and method. The group is rhythmically driven, describing their sound as anything "soul". Their music is composed of substance, layers of tempos and harmonies.[3]

Indigo Girls

The band was writing extensively, booking shows around Atlanta, and honing their sound.[4] In 2010, Tyler met Emily Saliers, one half of the Atlanta-based Indigo Girls at a Passover Seder. The two began talking about music and Saliers asked to hear him play. Tyler picked up a guitar and played her some of his original material with The Shadowboxers. Saliers recalls saying when she heard Tyler sing, "I just remember being stunned by it."[5] The following week, Saliers attended a performance by the band. One year later, the band went on tour with the Indigo Girls, serving as their backing band and opening act for over two years.[6]

Self-titled EP

In 2011, the band released a self-titled EP produced by Shawn Grove, Dan Hannon, Will Mitchell, and the band.[7] It includes six recorded songs and two live songs, recorded at Eddie's Attic.

Red Room

From February 14{{sndash}}March 30, 2012, the band ran a Kickstarter campaign to fund their first full-length album.[8] They raised over $32,000 (of a $18,000 goal), and recorded various cover songs on their YouTube channel to thank financial backers of the project.

The money went to studio time with producer Brady Blade, and engineer Chris Bell as well as the addition of the horn section Grooveline Horns to some of their new songs.[9] The 14 track album was released by Vanguard Records and Welk Music Group on January 22, 2013.[10] Two weeks later, Red Room was named as a top music pick from the New York Daily News.[11]

Justin Timberlake

On December 3, 2013, Hoffman tweeted to Justin Timberlake from band's Twitter account, telling him he needed to check out their cover of his song "Pusher Love Girl". It caught his attention and Timberlake posted a tweet about the video.[12] The trio met with Timberlake a couple of weeks later during his 20/20 Tour[13] and he offered to mentor them and help them shape their sound.[14] Later, he signed them to his artist development label, Villa 40,[15] and in June 2017, the band joined Justin Timberlake and K-Kov at a studio in New York to record new music.[16]

In 2018, The Shadowboxers were asked to join Timberlake on his Man of the Woods tour, as openers from March 13 2018 - January 29 2019. [17]

Woman Through The Wall

On May 5, 2016, the band released the single "Woman Through The Wall", which was co-written by Gabe Simon from Kopecky.[18] A sequential video was released on June 6, 2016.[19]

Build The Beat

The single "Build the Beat" was released in 2016 and currently has over 2.6 million streams on Spotify. This song features Rashawn Ross on horns.[20] The song charted on Spotify's Global Viral 50 and United States Viral 50 playlists.

Hot Damn!

Recorded at The Loft Studios in New York City, the single "Hot Damn" was co-produced by Timberlake and K-Kov.[21] It was released on September 22, 2017,[22] and was featured on Spotify's United States Viral Top 50 playlist. The track was the first song the band recorded that captured the energy of the live show and sums up who they are as a band right now.[15]

Runaway

On January 16, 2018, the band released the single "Runaway" produced by The Shadowboxers, Timberlake and Rob Knox.[23] It was performed live on The Today Show[24] and The Talk [25] and placed on Spotify's United States Viral Top 50 playlist.

Apollo

The Shadowboxers released an EP of original works titled Apollo on March 23, 2018. Included are previously released singles "Hot Damn!" and “Runaway" and features the focus track, “Timezone,” which debuted on Spotify’s New Music Friday playlist.[26][27]
