In Georgian Shin means "the road home". Even though each of us has our own personal road home and our own personal home, the music of The Shin has the amazing ability of leading everyone "home". The music leads you to somewhere you know you've been before, where the windows are fogged over from the rain and it smells of kitchen smells, where you hear voices and, even though you might not understand what they are saying, you understand everything anyway. This music leads you home, no matter how far away it is.
