Description:
Fans describe the band's genre as "blunge rock," alternative rock with a blues edge and a pinch of grunge. The Southeast Missourian Cape Girardeau Entertainment Guide writes: "This St. Louis-area band has perfected the alt -rock ballad."
"Shanks sounds remarkably like Scott Stapp of Creed with a little Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam" "mix of acoustic and electric guitars ...3 Doors Down influence obvious” “hard to find ... this much attention to writing their music and playing their instruments and still has an interesting singer." -Jessica Marie Martin, Quincy Herald-Whig
Band Members:
The band originated in 1999 with Randy Shanks and Erik Simpson composing the music and lyrics. They began public performances in 2007 as a duo, then added drummer Keith Thurnau and bassist Mike Titchenal later that year.
