Shaynie Rhoads
Artist
High-voltage rock and bubblegum pop collide in the music of Shaynie Rhoads, guitar-slinging headbanger from Oceanside, California. With riffs inspired by 80’s metal and a voice straight out of the teen idol movement of the 00’s, Shaynie gives rise to a unique sound that she calls “pink metal.”
“I was always a bit of a misfit, and not the cool kind,” she tells SD Voyager Magazine. “I was the girl that showed up to class in blue eyeshadow and faux fur platform boots. I drove a crusty old car and worked at Vons so that I could buy band shirts and concert tickets.”
As a recording artist, Shaynie releases music under her label, Hotcakes Records. Her influences include Metallica, Judas Priest, Diamond Head, Guns ‘n’ Roses, Ratt, Dokken and Motley Crue.
