    The Shepherd and the Wolf is the debut album from SHAMUS, a new project from acclaimed multi-instrumentalist Shamus Currie.

    A rock opera built on the bandleader’s twin passions of high fantasy and progressive rock.

    An album in the lineage of King Crimson, Steve Miller Band and Thin Lizzy.

    An adventure into a world of Nature, an Aesop’s fable of Carnage and Greed.

  • Accompanying the release of The Shepherd and the Wolf album will be a card game of the same name. With game design by Josh Bennett, who formerly worked with Wizards of the Coast (Magic: The Gathering, etc) and illustrated in a style that recalls the gloriously pulpy works of Boris Vallejo and Frank Frazetta, the game will lead the listener deeper into the world SHAMUS has created, allowing the player to experience the travails of the Shepherd on his heroic journey against the ungovernable forces of carnage and greed.

lyrics

I worked in the fields all day
I came down here to get my pay
And while I was walking and while you were talking I saw something that I must say
There’s a wolf that is loose in these fields
I saw it come down from the hills
And while you’ve been lying back, while you’ve been getting fat, wolf’s coming in for the kill

I came from the mountain pass
I travelled through fields of grass
I bring you a warning, red sky in the morning means danger has come at last
I believe what my eyes can see
And I know whats in front of me
And by firelight I witnessed a sight, “Cry Wolf!” Woe unto thee
