Originally from Ayr, Rebecca Shearing, aka SHEARS moved to Edinburgh to study singing age 17. The talented multi-instrumentalist was an early star of the YouTube community, which saw her build a huge online following by performing covers of her favourite artists.After 18 months writing and recording, SHEARS' debut single Circle Line, which was produced by Samson and mixed by Matty Green (Dua Lipa, Lady Gaga, Hurts), was released on 1 March. The first of four singles scheduled for release this year, it showcases a polished electro-pop sound with dark overtones - a very promising release.
