Shelter is an album by The Brand New Heavies, released in 1997 on the Delicious Vinyl record label.

It is the only album by the Brand New Heavies to feature singer-songwriter Siedah Garrett as a member of the band, joining them in 1996 and leaving in early 1998 to concentrate on her own songwriting.

With Garrett as part of the Brand New Heavies they enjoyed their only UK top 10 hit with a cover of the Carole King-penned song "You've Got a Friend", originally made famous by James Taylor.

The album also contains the hit "Sometimes", which peaked at number 11 on the UK Singles Chart when released in 1997.

In 2015, production team Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis revealed that the remix done by J Dilla which featured Q-Tip was the inspiration behind the sound of Janet Jackson's 1997 single "Got 'til It's Gone".
