Shamra is a Pop Rock quintet from the NY/NJ/CT tristate area, active 1999 - present known primarily from their 2003 placement of the band's DIY "eight-track" recording Paper Umbrella in the globally syndicated TV show Dawson's Creek. With front-woman Carrie Bolger's airy and energetic delivery, the group found success in licensing its works to MTV and was an influential presence on the NY/NJ club scene, playing their uniquely refined artful pop metaphorics before crowds at clubs such as CBGB and Pianos, along with more intimate performances in coffee shops and cafes. Shamra released three LPs, including their debut effort Whatever Fits in 2003, their follow-up Frieze which arrived in 2004, and 2024's self-titled Shamra, a collection of remastered and previously unreleased songs. Band members include guitarist/bassist/vocalist/writer/producer Carrie Bolger (a.k.a. Charlie Kindred, Chaz Static, Shamra), guitarist/stringed instrumentalist/bassist/writer/producer/engineer Joseph Cannone (a.k.a. Joe Cannone, Joe Canon, Joe Cannon, Shamra, Julio Poet, The One Called Joseph),
guitarist/stringed instrumentalist/bassist/writer/producer/engineer Henry Borovitz (a.k.a. Henry Frost, Toppy Frost, VsShade, Shamra, The Ropes, R_Missing), drummer Bob Fontana, bassist Kristjan Karu, previous bassist Mimi Engles, and previous bassist Sarah Bolger.
