| Shinn "Shinnbone" Uehara: General Info
|
| Member Since | 7/9/2006 | | Band Members | The songs on this page are demos. I'm playing everything on them. Live, I've had the pleasure to play with some great musicians.

Edward Wilson, Rick Merridith, Andy Anderson, and others on bass.
---
Danyelle Dyer, Kenny Parks, Bennie Harris, and others on drums.
---
Deidra Evans, Shanda Leigh McKnight, and others on keyboard.
---
I've also played for some great musicians, like Beau Hall, Oceana, X-Factor, Mr. Jones, the Blues in the Alley House band, and more. | | Influences | KISS, Michael Schenker, Deep Purple, Miles Davis, Santana, T-Bone Walker, Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Scofield, Grant Green, James Brown, Billie Holiday, Steely Dan, Robben Ford, Scott Henderson, Andy Summers, Vital Information, etc. in somewhat of a chronological order | | Sounds Like | That's for the listeners to decide. I could say I sound like Grant Green and Carlos Santana combined, but some people might think I sound like a combination of a leaf blower and a cocktail shaker. | | Type of Label | Major |
