Shaun Banks

Shaun Banks is a one-man band artist, who's based in the 500-year-old mining town of Idrija, Slovenia. His music is fueled by punk rock energy and is fused in a garage with the soul and groove of blues. Shaped by the town's industrial and rural environment, Banks takes his fans on a journey through his energetic craftsmanship, heavily influenced by The White Stripes, The Black Keys, and Robert Johnson. Playing guitar and foot drums simultaneously, accompanied by his powerful and colorful voice with bluesy harmonica fills makes for a great, live show. He performed at various Slovenian venues and festivals including MKNŽ Ilirska Bistrica, Swenak Idrija, Galerija SDK Tolmin, Mladinski Center Idrija, Kulturni Center Rogaška Slatina, Bus Bar Idrija, ŠKUC Ljubljana, Pri Rdeči Ostrigi Škofja Loka, Hotel Kempinski Portorož, Center Mladih Koper, Festival Čipkarija, Festival Monošus, Festival Dobimo se pred ŠKUCem, Festival In Memoriam Peter Hafner Festival, and Festival Mlada parade. www.shaunbanksmusic.com
