Bio
"It's amazing what can happen in a few short years when the people around you believe in you and you follow your passion!" --Randy Shanks/Descending New Angels
The fall of 2010 was one awesome ride for Descending New Angels! The band opened for National Act Cracker at Alton's great amphitheatre. DNA members were teen fans of Cracker well before taking the stage with them. The band shared a trailor with Devon Allman, who is fast becoming a legend in his own right. What a Ride.

Press
"St. Louis band Descending New Angels (aka DNA) has been blending genre elements of classic and southern rock with a strong grunge influence...'grunge with hope.' The band consistently weaves acoustic guitar and djembe drums into many of its songs. Lyrics are often messages of trials, hope, and perserverance."

Celebrating 2008 - Our First Year As A Band
Jan 16, 2009 at 09:00 PM
We started as two friends with acoustical guitars and a book of poetry in 1999, enjoying the occasional jam sessions with friends. It wasn't until 2007 when Erik & I (Randy) began playing at a great club, Blue Agave in Belleville, Illinois. Later that year we decided to pull together a full band and hit the ground running in 2008!
We are thankfu...
