TDaKT: S3 EP9 Shayne O'Keefe

For S3 EP9, the Two Dudes welcomed Shayne O'Keefe to the new Studio in Redford, MI. We met Shayne when his band Gusher opened up for Frank Black at Saint Andrew's Hall in Detroit on 1.28.25. The band was awesome and we met Shayne outside after his set. It was cool to hear how Shayne got his start in music and more specifically how he became the frontman for Gusher. Shayne is also the owner of Metropolis Bicycles in the Corktown area of Detroit. Great story about a guy who never wanted to be a frontman but eneded up becoming of the of the more charismatic lead singers we have seen perform.
