Find Sound is the debut record from Shards, a London based vocal group led by singer, composer and producer Kieran Brunt. Combining voices, synths and percussion, Find Sound is an astonishing exploration of the human voice; using the concepts of sound and light as simple metaphors for gaining understanding. The album's pieces are intended to be miniature sonic paintings, with each adding to an overall picture of the emotional confusion of early adulthood the uncertainty, the excitement, the terror and relief.After collaborating with Terry Riley in 2016, Brunt was asked by the Barbican to form a choral group for Nils Frahm's Possibly Colliding festival that summer.

Shards have since gone on to collaborate with other notable artists, including Michael Price on his recent LP Tender Symmetry.Brunt details how he put Shards together InchI decided to go for 12 singers, capable of creating a good amount of noise but also small enough to get to know each other intimately.

As such, we have people in the group who are also composers, instrumentalists, folk musicians and teachers. It's a vibrant mix, and I'm constantly discovering new things about them the more we make music together.InchEach of the singers in Shards brings a very distinctive musical personality to the group, something which Brunt was eager to emphasise on their debut record. Rather than aiming for a seamles
