about

Darryl Shepard Malden, Massachusetts

I've played in a number of bands over the years, and a lot of music has gone unreleased. These are live tracks, demos, outtakes, etc. from different bands I've played in, as well as some solo material. I'll be adding more to this page over time. Feel free to download anything you like. Thanks for checking it out.
