J-Bunny sits down with Shane Chikeles to discuss his career in music, starting with his time in bands, such as Drowning Room, Joshua, and Park Ranger, and how that led to him joining The Ataris. They also discuss how playing with the band Cu Dubh led to Shane playing at renaissance faires, which then led to making that his full-time job with the bands Boom Boom Shake, Opa!, and Shake, Rattle, and Rogue. Shane also gives his thoughts on the current state of the music industry, and the struggle trying to figure out how to send people home from shows with music, when most cars no longer have CD players.
