about

This is the finished track that started with our "Social Instanced Demos" on here.
Check out the Over-Zoomed Demo Mix video here. youtu.be/QcpzLmgYKdo
AND HERE IS THE FINAL (With the demo video)

Filmed at the height of the pandemic. The Vanrays were midway through recording a this record when the whole world shut down, so we’ve finished Shake My Hand online as our EastVan Soul Social Distancing Anthem. (SOUL-cial Distancing?)

SHAKE MY HAND:

Shake my hand , shake my hand- shake my money maker
Shake my hand , Shake my hand I'll Shake your money tree
Shake my hand , shake my hand-ohooh... shake my hand
Shake my hand , Shake my hand I'll Shake your money tree

You know that baby by the time it takes now, to grease the palm before your hand can Shake now
Before you realize just what's at stake, I'm on to something new

Shake my hand , shake my hand- shake my money maker
Shake my hand , Shake my hand I'll Shake your money tree
Shake my hand , shake my hand-ohooh... shake my hand
Shake my hand , Shake my hand I'll Shake your money tree

The time it takes to hesitate, your fate has been decided
When you fall but I don't call, you know it's been a lie
Caught between a love that seems at best to be one sided
You should have guessed you should have left &left me high and dry

I've made a move before you've even started, you're broke before you know you're broken hearted
Death do us part and baby I've departed, my spirit's on the move

Shake my hand , shake my hand- shake my money maker
Shake my hand , Shake my hand I'll Shake your money tree
Shake my hand , shake my hand-ohooh... shake my hand
Shake my hand , Shake my hand, Shake my hand , Shake my hand
Shake my hand , Shake my hand, Shake my hand , Shake my hand

If there's a mark then baby I will hit them, If there are pockets then I got to pick them
If there are fools you know I got to trick them, to shake their money tree.
I got these urges that I can't resist now, We're what the law it calls recidivists now

The Vanrays Vancouver, British Columbia

EastVan Soul:
It's a Motown beat down in a shark skin suit. It's wailing like its gospel while they're laying in the boots. It's a curb stomping rhythm on the corner of control. It's a nod in the direction, when all the shoes had leather souls. And to when those shoes were twisting, to Otis and to James. And so now do, The Vanrays too, we are here to do the same. ... more
