Matt Shukin 'Fireside' at Sidecar

Born and raised in the western suburbs of Chicago, Matt Shukin has been performing since a young age at various venues around the Chicago-land area. Influenced as a kid by the sounds of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Eric Clapton, Little Richard, and Jimi Hendrix, Shukin started to develop an ear for music. He played in metal bands & recorded avant-garde art rock in high school, and proceeded to front the band Pleasure Horse after graduating. After expanding by playing many different genres, including hard rock, thrash metal, punk, blues, jazz and soul, he found his own unique sound. With a versatile array of original material and cover songs, he provides not only quality music, but a good time. Shukin is currently fronting his own band, Shukin and the Ramblers, as well as playing guitar with local garage soul group Black Bolts and collaborating with many other local artists live and in the studio.
