About Me

CLICK BELOW TO FIND EVERYTHING jameson steinway


Starting in the New England area in the early 90’s and migrating to Chicago in 1996 as ThumB. Shamus managed to gather a relatively large fan base. With bands such as Sour, Nova Sonic, and Vivid on the same bill, the band was taken in by listeners immediately and shows were well received from the start.
After a short break, and playing in other bands, Shamus reformed a new band (Dogwater) in New York .
Most recently, Shamus has joined in with Jameson Steinway on Bass. Keep your eyes peeled for upcoming gigs. *Shamus has been playing various instruments since a very young age. A native New Yorker, he started out on Trumpet and was accused of stealing his sisters instruments whenever she was not around. He later moved to Bass and Guitar and played with such groups as New Rising Sun, ThumB, Earshot, and others. On guitar, he has crafted a unique style that is definably his own sound with the band Dogwater. On bass, he is now adding his experience and wicked vibrancy to the mix of personalities and sounds with JAMESON STEINWAY.
