Captivating stage presence, superior vocals, and seasoned musicianship immediately sets off this dynamic, country - rock band from the heart of beautiful Sonoma County. Their diverse blend of danceable music, including New Country, Classics, and "Home Spun" originals, appeals to a wide range of tastes. Shannon's sterling vocals are backed up by rockin' guitars, a solid rhythm section, fiddle, mandolin, and keyboards. Each of the band's members brings something special to the stage:

	Shannon Rider Lead Vocals With an attention grabbing style and presence, Shannon will surprise you with her vocal range. She takes you from the sweetest of ballads to a rocking growl with ease. Her energy and enthusiasm often bring her right out into the crowd to join in the dancing she has inspired. Her ability to engage the audience and her command of the stage keep you coming back for more.
	Paul Urquhart Drums and Vocals He may be in the seat at the back of the band, but he's certainly not shy. Paul brings years of experience and a flashy style to the group with definite command of rhythm. Not only does he keep up the energy, but he also takes over the microphone from time to time. His voice resonates with the sounds of Charlie Daniels and Merle Haggard and audiences keep demanding that the drummer be allowed to sing.
	Tim Sarter Bass and Vocals Providing the second part of the rhythm section, Tim brings a solid bass sound and an original style to the group. With years of experience, it's no surprise that he graces the audience with a song or two a night all while maintaining a steady bass line. Keep your ears open for those low harmonies too.
	Dennis Sherman Lead Guitar and Vocals With a lifetime of professional playing and the energy of a rock star, Dennis captivates an audience. His stage antics and uncanny sense of humor keep the audience wondering what he might do next. Between his jokes, he takes the audience on a musical journey from country western favorites to rock and roll classics.
	Mark Marelli Keyboard and Vocals An experienced pianist, Mark plays it all. He may seem quiet, but his ability to crank out the tunes is certainly not. He is able to move from boogie woogie to swing to ballad and back again with ease. Mark has also been known to sing a few once he's warmed up.
	Michael Kane Fiddle, Mandolin and Vocals He's got an energy and power that leave the audience wondering why he never seems to tire, but Michael keeps playing. He's a great fiddle player and he likes to show his talents on mandolin and guitar too and he frequently treats the audience to some Cajun favorites. He's been known to stroll around the room and get out on the dance floor in the middle of a song, so keep your eyes open.
