About Me

"Shoe Shiners are carrying on in the proud smart-ass tradition of The Plastic Constellations and Lifter Puller as a bunch of not so much angry as wry young men. They're not a bunch of mopers, not a bunch of screamers; just a bunch of like-minded guys looking to deliver some musical escape."
