The Strain featuring Sammy Shako is a high-voltage party classic rock band that brings your favorite radio songs at shows throughout the mid-Atlantic and coastal areas. Along with the classic favorites, they cross genres to deliver blues, southern/country rock and a little funk with spirited vocals, driving rhythms, and high octane percussion featuring an unpretentious on-stage chemistry that will have ‘em shaking a tailfeather all night long. Veterans with about 100 years of service to the country, performing live is what they do best, and sending out good vibes is what they are about.
