Gun Shy’s Vinny Cole (Vin Colella) and Dan Lerro in 2008 with the legendary Pete Humphreys mastering their album “The Band V - Revolution Street” (also featuring Gun Shy’s Alan Hoke (not pictured)). That album would later get broken apart into 2 separate EPs (Vin’s “Self Titled” EP and the “Revolution Street Sessions” EP) at the direction of radio to satisfy their formats (but would never get released due to contract negotiations). Those songs were Produced and Engineered by Vin, Shelly Yakus (John Lennon, U2, Tom Petty), Wayne Davis (Breaking Benjamin & Paramore), Artie Kornfeld (co-creator of Woodstock 69 and Vin’s manager) and Ted Richardson (Portugal. The Man). If you listen to the songs on those EPs, you can still hear the heart of Gun Shy in them.
