History

Dolour first appeared in Seattle, Washington's independent music scene in 1997; by the time Waiting For A World War was released in April 2001 the name was being used purely as Shane's musical pseudonym. Waiting For A World War is the debut album released by the indie rock band Dolour. Year 2001 ( MMI) was a Common year starting on Monday according to the Gregorian calendar. Freed from the constraints of a "collaborating band", Shane experimented with many different songwriting approaches and recorded over 100 demos before he entered the studio in the fall of 2001 to begin his second album, Suburbiac. Suburbiac is the second album released by the indie rock band Dolour. Collaborating on the production with longtime friend, Aaron Sprinkle, these recordings ended up landing Dolour a deal with Seattle label Fugitive Records. The album was released on October 29th, 2002. As soon as Suburbiac was finished, Shane put together a home studio, and worked for a year and a half on various album projects, the fruits of these labors were showcased on New Old Friends (2004). New Old Friends is the third album by the indie rock band Dolour. While the guitars and drums were more upfront and aggressive then ever before, the arrangements also showed a new level of maturity with their intricate layers of strings, horns, synthesizers, and vocal harmonies. It is the first album Shane took sole production credit for. Initially released independently in February 2004, it was eventually re-released on Damien Jurado's label, Made In Mexico Records in November 2004. Damien Jurado is a singer/songwriter in the Indie-rock tradition of Seattle Washington. Over the course of 2004-2006 Shane recorded two separate albums, Hell or Highwater and Storm & Stress, which have now been released together as The Years in the Wilderness.

Since the completion of The Years in the Wilderness in early 2007, Shane started a new group with his family members called Shane Tutmarc & The Traveling Mercies. Shane Tutmarc & The Traveling Mercies are a Seattle -based band formed in December 2006 On December 6, 2007, Shane announced that Dolour were essentially finished as he focused his efforts on his new project. Events 1060 - Béla I of Hungary is crowned king of Hungary 1240 - Mongol invasion of Rus: Kiev Year 2007 ( MMVII) was a Common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar in the 21st century. ^[1]
