Shoeb Ahmad is a musician/sound artist based in Canberra, Australia. Beginning with toy microphones and instruments, Shoeb obsessed over feedback manipulation and minimal organ drone before feeling the push of punk experimentation. He performs and records fragile tone structures and spacious songforms using guitar, voice, field recordings, keyboard and laptop.

He has released recordings on the Sound & Fury, Wilting Flower and Low Point labels while performing alongside the likes of Gersey, DJ Olive, Richard Chartier, Tenniscoats, Christopher Willits and Magic Dirt. Shoeb has just released his first full length CD, titled 'Sonar Love Songs' on French label Cook An Egg. Here's what Boa Melody Bar out of Scotland had to say:

"Another lovely release from Shoeb Ahmad - guitar textures delayed / reverbed to the nth degree drifting towards the horizon, sometimes sounding like a guitar, with elongated notes extending ever outwards and sometimes like a ghostly shadow of the sound. Gorgeous." (Gayle Brogan) .
