The Rolling Stones began calling themselves the "World΄s Greatest Rock & Roll Band" in the late ΄60s, and few disputed the claim. The Rolling Stones΄ music, based on Chicago blues, has continued to sound vital through the decades, and the Stones΄ attitude of flippant defiance, now aged into wry bemusement, has come to seem as important as their music.

The Shaky Hands are a Portland, Oregon based rock group, formed in 2003 upon Nicholas Delffs and Colin Anderson΄s move from Mendocino, California. Portland resident Paul Culp joined soon after on bass. They spent the next three years gradually building a following in the Portland area, until they were signed to Holocene Music in late 2006[1]. By this time, the lineup had changed considerably, with Mayhaw Hoons replacing Culp (who left in late 2004) on bass and the addition of second guitarist Jeff Lehman. Nathan Delffs (Nicholas΄ brother, and member of The Castanets) joined shortly thereafter on percussion and lap steel. Their sound is a mixture of 1960΄s style British Invasion bands such as The Kinks, The Who and The Zombies and American folk-rock in the vein of Neil Young.

It all really started when my brother and I began writing songs and playing together in a little house on an alley in Imperial Beach, California. We had no furniture, no dishes, not even a stove. The only thing in the house was an old upright piano.” says J. John, vocalist and bass player. “We had just moved back to California after living out of backpacks traveling through southeast Asia, India, Nepal, southern Europe, and the United States. We came back with nothing, but someone gave us a piano so we started writing songs.”

The Stained Glass Saints have a distinct sound comprised of a modern day acoustic feel that vocally resonates somewhere reminiscent of 1944. Straight out of Southern California, The Saints delve deep below the surface un-inventing the Rock-&-Roll while preserving the finest of our punk roots.
The group has just released their first self-titled 8-song ep and has plans to finish up a full 14 song recording sometime in 2008. The Stained Glass Saints are mostly known for setting a mellow vibe and yet still peak the interest of those hardcore punk fans by slipping in those unsuspecting punk covers performed in their very own patented acoustic lounge style. So whether you are 62 or 22, either way you may find yourself down for chilling out to an earful of an acoustic lounge styled Nofx, Pennywise, or Face to Face song. As clever as the covers you do not want to rule out the original songwriting of this trio. Songs like “Satellite” and “Wayan and Friends” give off a catchy steady acoustic vibe with lyrics that keep the mind turning long after the songs are over.
