THE BAND ... |
SHOWS LEARY

A unique blend of blues, rock & roll, folk and more, Dandelion Wine plays "rock & roots with a twist.
Very much like Deb Cavanaugh's former band, General Eclectic, Dandelion Wine's line-up will change depending on the venue and availability of musicians. Deb met Shows Leary at a local Open Mic and immediately liked his style of playing and overall vibe. |
Shows Leary has been playing electric bass, percussion, spoons, jaw harp, penny whistle and washboard for nearly 50 years. His wry and satirical sense of humor is written into his many original songs such as Blue Trap Paradise, Toolbelt Jedi, Propane, Nails For Breakfast, Concrete Blues, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft, The Tax Song and more. He also has an interest in creating historically accurate military and historical songs; appearing on albums in 1981 with the Golden Eagle String Band doing recreations of historical songs about the Erie Canal and the History of Rochester NY. He is currently working on a package of historical songs about prison camp life in World War 2. When he is not playing in one of the several rock/blues/country/roots bands he is in, he likes to play at open mics getting exposure to new songs, new crowds and new players.
