Description

The Shanks are a classic rock cover band in the San Francisco Bay Area. We play all sorts of venues from opening act for big concerts, to festivals, private parties, corporate parties, and pajama parties (no kidding, we played one!). We were honored in December 2008 as winners, and again in November of 2009 as runners-up, of the KFOX 98.5 "Last Band Standing" competition hosted by Greg Kihn. This competition seeks to identify the best cover bands in the SF Bay area.
We play songs from Van Halen, Pat Benetar, Foreigner, ZZ Top, Tom Petty, Heart, Fleetwood Mac, Santana, Bad Company, The Pretenders, Queen, Journey, The Rolling Stones, Clapton, and Elvis (both of them!) just to name a few. Drop us a line and let's get your party started!!
