Remy Shand Releases 20th Anniv. Edition of Album “The Way I Feel”

REMY SHAND RELEASES 20TH ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION OF ACCLAIMED NO. 1 ALBUM ‘THE WAY I FEEL,’

NOW INCLUDES 6 RARE BONUS TRACKS, AVAILABLE APRIL 22

(March 25, 2022 — Los Angeles, CA) – Remy Shand’s influential debut, and only, album, ‘The Way I Feel’, is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a deluxe edition released by Universal Music Canada in association with Motown Records and UMe.

This neo-soul classic comes with the addition of six rare tracks that are brand-new to streaming services, including four tracks that have never been released before in Canada and the U.S. The deluxe will be available April 22 on all digital and streaming platforms, and in the meantime, you can download or stream one of the rare tracks “A Day in the Shade.” Listen, HERE.

“A Day in the Shade” followed “The Way I Feel” as a single exclusive to Canada’s PureTracks, an early streaming service; the other bonus tracks, “Mai” and “Ripened and Consumed,” were previously available only on international editions of the album. Additional instrumental versions of the album’s three biggest tracks highlight Shand’s studio prowess, especially the extended instrumental version of “Take A Message.”

“My vision was to push through and create a solid platform for musical autonomy – the bedroom musician, the one-person band,” says Shand. “Twenty years later it’s the norm. Universal Music Canada and UMe/Motown understood the mission and the authenticity within. The album, music and statement will always be ahead of its time… and the message of love, eternal. It’s the way I feel.”

First released by UMC and Motown on March 12, 2002, ‘The Way I Feel’ was written, arranged and produced by Shand; he also performed all instruments.

In addition, music videos for “Take A Message,” “The Way I Feel” and “Rocksteady” will be officially available at all partners for the first time.

‘The Way I Feel’ received rave reviews, accolades and awards, including four GRAMMY® nominations; a JUNO Award winner for R&B/Soul Recording of the Year and nominations for Artist of the Year, Producer of the Year, and Songwriter of the Year; hit No. 1 for six consecutive weeks in Canada, where it is certified platinum; Top 40 on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums chart; #15 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart; and a top 5 chart success for the single, “Take a Message,” on the U.S. Adult R&B chart.
