The SHOPKEEPERS


The Original Group

"The Shopkeepers" is a Western New York band that has been together for more than 35 years. At present, it has been reduced to a two piece group with vocals, guitar, bass, and a drum machine instead of the real drummer. Who knows? In the future, it may again be a three piece group consisting of guitar, bass, drums, and vocals. We play a variety of music including classic rock & popular, country, blues, and original tunes. Being a small group, we have good control of volume levels and can adapt rapidly to the job. We are electrified and therefore have a variety of sound variations. The following are a few of the tunes we perform:


  • It Don't Come Easy
  • Lodi
  • Tore Down
  • Peaceful Easy Feeling
  • Who Say's You Can't Go Home
  • Taking Care of Business
  • I Can See Clearly
  • Light My Fire
  • I Won't Back Down
  • Old Time Rock & Roll
  • Boulevard of Broken Dreams
  • Bad Love
  • Back in the USSR
  • Rockin'in the Free World
  • Closing Time
