Shady Drive‘s recipe begins with a strong base of 60′s and 70′s rock ‘n’ roll, then we add a helping of guitar-based blues and a pinch of today’s more popular modern rock acts. Finish with a dash of some oldies but goodies, turn on the heat and PRESTO, you’ve got an amazingly fun and entertaining band that will keep the dance floor full all night! Shady Drive is most often a power trio consisting of Rob ‘Shady’ Hayes (guitar/vocals), Mike Starcher (drums/vocals) and Blake Kniola (bass/vocals). The band also has the unique ability to add keyboards, saxophone and a three or four-piece horn section at a moment’s notice. They’ve performed relentlessly in Northeast Ohio over the past 12 years.
