Produced by the talented Julian Giaimo, “What You Need To Know” was written on the acoustic guitar by Shane and together they were able to pay homage to it in the production process by laying down an integral part of the rhythm on a 12-string acoustic.

 

"This song as a whole is about meeting someone who is self-absorbed and used to getting everything they want based on their looks," shares Rennison, shedding light on the inspiration behind the track. "It's about telling them what they need to know in order to grow emotionally and avoid the pitfalls of being self-absorbed long-term."

 

With its indie pop/rock vibes and a happy and energetic mood, "What You Need To Know" is sure to stay in your head long after its last note. From its infectious rhythms to its soul-stirring lyrics, the single offers a powerful message of growth and self-discovery, echoing the themes that define Shane Rennison's musical journey.

 

"What You Need To Know" serves as a teaser for the artist’s upcoming album, ‘IRRATIONAL’, which released on June 28th, 2024. This album promises to showcase Shane Rennison's evolution as an artist, offering a diverse array of tracks that speak to the soul and uplift the spirit.
