RODNEY SHENK,

multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, has been a live music entertainer in Central Florida for over three decades, co-founding & fronting two regionally successful bands — The Sharks (1987- 1992) and 606 (1993-2016) — releasing three original CDs, drawing record crowds most everywhere they played.

Rodney currently performs in the greater Sarasota area as an acoustic guitar-based solo act, and as a duo with his wife, Mj — The HappyGoLuckys

 songwriter, including runner-up in the Dance Music category of The John
 Lennon Songwriting Contest, and a
 People’s Choice Addy for jingle work.
 Rodney is continually in the
