Initially formed to create the soundtrack for the film series of the same name,Radio Outlaw bio Eastern Shadows developed into a full-fledged band late in 2009. The initial incarnation of the band appeared on stage at the final Rockit Hong Kong Music Festival, where the band was billed as Spencer Douglass. However it was not until the band moved to the US that they really became serious and started working with the leading lights of the music scene. Their first EP was recorded by Steve Albini, and several of the resulting tracks are available on Soundcloud. A short tour of Asia followed in 2010.
