Shane Dwight

Shane Dwight is a genre-busting artist with energetic performances and charismatic appeal. A killer blues player who can rock the house all night long with the best of them, he's also an introspective singer-songwriter whose voice rings true. Shane’s music draws in equal measure from classic blues and urban R&B, from alt-country and modern rock without compromising his integrity or missing a beat.

In 2001, his band won the Monterey Blues Festival Battle of the Bands, and he’s been pleasing audiences world-wide ever since.

He has recorded 11 CDs, and performed over 3500 shows over the years, headlining at some of music’s most significant events including The Ottawa Blues Festival (Canada), The Beale Street Festival (Memphis), The Grolsch Blues Festival (Germany), and The Legendary Rhythm and Blues Cruise, amongst many others.


Shane has shared the stage with household names such as Blake Shelton, Joe Bonamassa, The Doobie Brothers, Tedeschi Trucks Band, The Marshall Tucker Band, and the great B.B. King.
 
Shane has played for intimate listening rooms like Bluebird Café in Nashville, TN, large capacity venues like BB Kings (NYC, Orlando, L.A.); casinos from Las Vegas to Florida; and even a stint at Disneyland for five years.
