Shayne Malone

Shayne Malone is a New Zealand singer and songwriter whose raw rock anthems are made for blasting with the windows down as you’re hurtling down the highway with adrenaline surging through your veins. He is a six-string storyteller with a well-worn leather jacket and a songbook of life’s highs and lows.

“Immediately burns inside your brain and doesn‘t leave it for days.” - AORMusic

Shayne grew up in a musical household - his father’s band rehearsed in their lounge - where every instrument was within arm’s reach. He picked up guitar, bass, keyboard, and drums naturally, forming his first band at just 12 years old. Honing his craft playing in bars and working men’s clubs, his high-energy performances, rugged voice, and guitar skills made connecting with audiences on stage feel like home away from home.

“Nothing short of exceptional. Undeniable talent.” - Edgar Allan Poets

True enough, Shayne Malone is an unapologetic torchbearer for classic stadium rock that fans of Van Halen, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi will immediately recognise as their own. Shayne isn’t chasing trends. Staying true to the stadium rock sound that made legends, he is keeping the spirit of classic rock alive, one song at a time.

“I’m inspired by classic rock to create music that makes people feel alive - songs that hit like anthems, heal like ballads, and remind us why rock will never die.”

For fans of Bon Jovi, Van Halen, Def Leppard, Whitesnake, Gary Moore, Bryan Adams, Guns N’ Roses, Journey and Europe.
