A player in the big picture category; Shane commands interest from his intro all the way to the fade-out." -John Stix, Guitar for the Practicing Musician magazine"Anyone who's heard Theriot's playing would agree- versatile indeed." -Guitar Shop Magazine"The first thing you hear is that delirious cry, a captivating guitar tone. Then you hear the groove-intensive phrasing, then the moments of clearly articulated burnin'" -Jeff Scheetz, Guitarist Network"Harmonic underpinnings run deep in Theriot's hands- even a simple blues becomes a canvas for colorful extensions and unique voicings" -Guitar Player Magazine (Dec. 2000)
