Dream Shark is a multimedia universe created by Benjamin McCarthy.
I EXPLORE - CREATE - INSPIRE - GUIDE - PROTECT - LOVE.
THE MUSIC
Dream Shark’s neo-psychedelic indie-rock/ dream pop debut, “There’s A Child” is a bionic soundscape that blurs the line between synthetic and acoustic recordings. The LP features fat drum beats, juicy baselines, out-of-this-universe synth and guitar, floating vocal melodies, and infectious hooks all throughout. McCarthy’s innovative sound design will take you to a realm deep inside, on this healing 11 song adventure. Benjamin wrote, produced, recorded, and performed all material on this album including, drums, bass, guitar, keys, vocals, and lyrics.
THE ART
Benjamin creates paintings, sculptures, comics, apparel, trading cards, and video games as well. From 4 years old he has had a deep love for creating visual art, and has been developing these various mediums for over 20 years. McCarthy was first able to make a living as an artist, as acrylic/oil painter, but has since grown to encompass all that is Dream Shark. It is through this array of media that the Dream Shark Universe comes to life. Find Benjamin and the Dream Shark store at The Portland Saturday Market!
