Shaking Hand is a Manchester trio that constructs long, slow-burning post-rock music in multiple tunings and time signatures. Their sound draws inspiration from modernist architecture, 90s US alternative, and midwestern emo. The band's musical DNA is influenced by experimental guitar outfits such as Women, Slint, Sonic Youth, Pavement, and Ulrika Spacek, while also incorporating the melodic sensibility of Big Thief and the dynamic intimacy of Yo La Tengo.
