Radio One Chicago

Vamplifier, the brainchild of Scott Shehan, has seen many line-ups and iterations over the years, but the trio of Shehan (guitar, vocals), Jane Hanna (bass, keys, vocals), and Chris Negrete (drums, vocals) have been the core of the band for almost a decade. They are a close-knit family – literally: Shehan and Hanna are married, and Negrete was their only wedding guest! – and their deep friendship and respect for one another comes through in their democratic songwriting, and unique style which blends their individual influences into a hard-to-pin-down sound.
