Shana Cleveland is a Seattle-based singer, songwriter, and guitarist known both for her work with noir surf group La Luz and her folk-oriented project Shana Cleveland & the Sandcastles. While vintage surf and instrumental rock styles inform Cleveland's music with La Luz, her work outside the group is decidedly different. Her acoustic guitar style recalls artists such as John Fahey and Robbie Basho, who fused "American Primitive" traditionalism with an adventurous melodic sense, and on her 2015 album Oh Man, Cover the Ground (credited to Shana Cleveland & the Sandcastles) and 2019's Night of the Worm Moon, the cool but emphatic approach of her picking was matched by low-key, dynamic instrumental accompaniment.
