I started playing guitar when I was 10. When I turned 12, I was playing in a Beatles cover band, the Baytown Beatles out of Houston, TX. I’ve always been a lead-guitar player, playing in some really good bands in Texas and Mississippi. I started the (3-piece) DoubleShotz band in Dallas, TX in 1990, moved it to Jackson, MS in 2000, then to Chattanooga in 2021, after retiring from my day job. I’ve written a lot of songs over the years, but have always preferred copying my favorite guitar players licks and playing their songs.
Will appear in the February 17, 2023 show
Teni Rane grew up in and around a community of Chattanooga musicians who helped nurture in her an early love for music. Her vocals carry power and finesse rolled together with perfect balance to evoke the emotional feel of her lyrics, and her Americana-take on a variety of select covers is delightfully unexpected and well-received by a wide demographic. Through each stage of her writing life, her original songs have revealed a level of maturity that allows her to weave common experiences into songs that captivate people in every age range.
