The Shine Runners include Mann on rhythm guitar, Johnny Hawthorn/Hunter Wolfe on lead guitar, Jeff LeGore on bass and Shane Mayo on the drums.  Peter Levin from the Greg Allman Band, Blind Boys of Alabama and Amanda Shires played B3 organ and upright piano on Anytime But Now and the newest release, Wrong Side of History.

The highly anticipated Wrong Side of History album showcases the band’s signature heavy guitar rock and roll sound across diverse, well-written tracks, complemented by memorable drums, slide guitar, and keys. Backup singers Angela Primm and Gayle Mayes definitely “take you to church”. The album flows authentically from its powerful opening track to its softer closing song, leaving listeners wanting to play it all over again.

As Mike Shaner from the Hollywood Examiner put it so eloquently, “Matt Mann and The Shine Runners are just pure whiskey drinking Southern Rock. Crowds eat up Matt Mann’s cowboy-rocker stage presence and raspy Oklahoma twang.”
