Shady Quid is an originals band consisting of five multi-instrumentalists in their mid 20s from Newcastle upon Tyne.

The standard line up features: Liam Whyatt - Lead Vocals, John Kerrigan - Lead Guitar/Backing Vocals, Juvel Tigal - Keyboards/Rhythm Guitar, Bradley Barnes - Bass Guitar, Peter Elliott - Drums/Percussion.

Since the formation of the band in the summer of 2023, the songwriting contributions of Kerrigan and Whyatt along with the combined writing/arranging of Barnes, Tigal and Elliott have quickly produced an exciting and ever expanding repertoire of catchy and well crafted songs. The bluesy vocals and energetic stage presence of Whyatt against the backdrop of guitar/keyboard synergy, and cast iron groove of the Barnes/Elliot rhythm section makes for a captivating live show, with a classic 60s/70s sound.

Inspired by a variety of classic american genres, and artists such as: Jefferson Airplane, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, The Doors, The Animals, The Rolling Stones, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Dire Straits and Bob Dylan, the Blues, Folk, Rock n Roll, Soul and Country influences that originally brought the five members together result in a distinct Americana sound, which continues to grow and develop.
