The Shaking Guns are an original Rock-N-Roll band with a little bit of country, blues, & soul mixed in. (And also just a hint of old punk thrown in for good measure). The music comes off live something like ... as if the Stooges & Dolls were doing Faces, Stones & Black Crowes type tunes in the early70's ... strange but true ... read on ...
The band loves all that Southern rock & old British blues type thing, but having lived in Detroit forever, the music is also somewhat infused with that old '70's punk background which kind of just comes out a bit unconsciously and gives it a bit more of an edge.
There are some demos recorded (see link) which you can check out to get a vague idea of what the band is about, which is just some original, booze-soaked, good time rock-n-roll !Your musical influences
