10.08.2009 Love Ride Cancelled 16 Second Stare was to play the 2009 Love Ride in Glendale, California; however after 25 years founder Oliver Shokouth, cancelled the event. The reason cited was the poor economy, and ticket sales were not enough to cover the event. Unfortunately, 16 Second Stare won't be at the event, but we are slated to come to cities across the US. Check out our tour page on this web site for details. If you want to see us in your city, Demand Us at www.eventful.com/16secondstare.
10.08.2009 16 Second Stare performing tonight at Whiskey's Club 16 Second Stare is performing tonight at Whiskey's Club on North Parkway. It's been a whirlwind of a year for 16 Second Stare, a rock band from Tampa with ties to Huntsville and Muscle Shoals. This summer, the band was invited on the 33-city Crue Fest 2 tour that included Motley Crue, Godsmack, Drowning Pool and Theory of a Deadman. The group started on a smaller stage performing to 500 or so people, but by the end of the tour was bumped up and performing before 15,000-20,000 fans. Earlier this year, 16 Second Star performed at South By Southwest in Austin, Texas, and was part of a tour with Brian "Head" Welch, the former lead guitarist of Korn.
Also, "Complicated," the first single off their soon-to-be released second album, is getting airplay on Sirius Satellite's Octane channel and numerous radio stations. Beyond their regular slate of gigs, 16 Second Stare does benefits for local cancer organizations and earmarked proceeds from their new, unreleased grungy version of "Amazing Grace" for that. Last year, the band sent 10,000 copies of its debut, "Red Carpet Material," to soldiers in Iraq to show support. On Oct. 26, they will play at Love Ride 26 in Glendale, Calif., the world's largest single-day motorcycle fundraising event. "I think we've got a pretty good spirit in the band," acoustic guitarist Tim Shanks said in a phone interview. The group plays tonight at Whiskey's Club on North Memorial Parkway. "That's what music is all about. You know, the songs don't have to be about something nasty and grotesque. "I was in the Coast Guard, and that's where I learned how to play guitar, on the fantail of the ship. When we released our first album, we pooled our money together and were able to send 10,000 CDs to the troops." How the band got started is an interesting story. About six years ago, Shanks was an administrator at a nursing home in Florida, but when he reported a nurse for allegedly not doing her job correctly he was abruptly fired. The next day, he bought a guitar. He hopes to one day tell the whole story (he's been involved in a lawsuit against the company for the last six years). A friend of his from Huntsville, "Big Dave" Potts, introduced him to some musicians and started 16 Second Stare. Potts eventually got married, moved to Lakeland, Fla., and had to leave the band. Guitarist Todd Pettus of Muscle Shoals also has been a part of the band and Shanks hopes Pettus can one day return to 16 Second Stare. "We have an interesting band - it's two bands in one," Shanks said. "Our first band has a Southern, bluesy rock feel to it. This one now is more aggressive rock."

08.28.2009 16 Second Stare in the Tampa Tribune Tampa's 16 Second Stare will join the Crue in concert Tampa hard rock act 16 Second Stare is making a break with its past. The band released its debut album, "Red Carpet Material," early this year. Its eponymous follow-up comes out next month, and singer-guitarist Chris Davis is adamant that it won't sound like its predecessor. "No way," he answers when asked whether "16 Second Stare" will continue in the mainstream vein of "Red Carpet Material." "The first album was cool but this one has a totally different style," Davis says by telephone from Cincinnati, where he was waiting for his band's second stage set on the Crue Fest 2 tour. The new album, he says, "is more like Pantera or Avenged Sevenfold, more aggressive, more in your face." "We found out more people enjoy that in the live shows," he says with a laugh. Crue Fest 2 organizers enjoy it as well, it seems. Davis says a listen to 16 Second Stare's new single, "Complicated," got them the gig on the tour, headlined by Motley Crue and featuring Theory of a Deadman and Godsmack. The sound isn't the only change for 16 Second Stare. Its new lineup has been together for only about a month and a half, Davis says. The biggest change, though, was bringing Davis up to the front. "I was a drummer for five years," Davis says. "But they couldn't keep me behind the drums. I'm totally a rocker." The lineup is completed by drummer Danny Cayocca, lead guitarist Dennis Kivak, singer Tim Shanks and bassist Kurtis Todd. The group began by playing covers in North Tampa clubs, eventually writing the songs that became "Red Carpet Material." It honed its live act at its self-built amphitheatre in a Lutz backyard. "We named it the Staregrounds," Davis says. "It's got a 30-by-50 foot stage we built. We promote shows there a week ahead of time and get all our family and friends out." 16 Second Stare also has hit the road with Brian "Head" Welch, the former Korn guitarist who left the band and converted to Christianity in 2005. "He told us all the stories," Davis says. "It's amazing. He's turned his life around." Head may have renounced his vices, but 16 Second Stare will probably need several cold ones after its set, which begins in late afternoon. Which is fine with Davis. "I like playing in the sun," he says with a laugh. ON TOUR 16 Second Stare WITH:Motley Crue, Godsmack, Theory of a Deadman, Drowning Pool, Charm City Devils and more WHEN:4 p.m. Friday WHERE:Ford Amphitheatre, 4802 U.S. 301 N., Tampa; (813) 740-2446 COST:$29.50, $39.50, $65 and $95 Music critic Curtis Ross can be reached at (813) 259-7568 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

01.12.2009 16 Second Stare plays Pegasus Saturday, January 10th 16 Second Stare returned to Tampa in what was a real dirty rock n roll concert. Fans were on the stage, Tim was angry and bumping into walls, someone came on stage and sang backup to Down, Meanwhile, Todd was rocking so hard he blew his amp, or maybe spilled beer on the head, either way they showed why Tampa and Pegasus is 16 Second Stare country....!
12.15.2008 16 Second Stare Tour Updateand News
16 Second Stare's last date on the a tour which consisted of LA, NYC, CT, Miami, Tampa and St. Pete was to be at the band house...the way it should be. It's a stage that was built on 20 acres behind the house with trails and fire pits. That afternoon clear channel's 98 Rock announced a pay for play to benefit children. The band donated monies to the cause and suddently Tampa/St. Pete finally got a dose of 16secondstare. In fact, if you go to the 98 Rock website they are listed. 98Rock went over and beyond and really helped out 16secondstare and seemed to really like the way the band RAWKED!!!!!!! The phones were ringing at the station and the show was another success. The band wants to thank 98 Rock and all of those who called in with their support!
12.10.2008 Pegasus Lounge- Dec 5th 2008 The boys returned home to play in front of their home crowd for the first time since "Rocktober Fest 08," and the first bar scene they performed since "The Green Parrot" in 2007. It was a great homecoming for the guys. Last time they played a bar in Tampa, they had only 5 songs ready. Now they came with a full album, that hit #34 on the Top 40 Indicator charts, and a new band member, Amber Nicol. They were the headliner group for the night, and they lived up to their role. They had a very good crowd, some of their die hards were there, as well as stragglers from the bands before them that never heard 16 Second Stare play. They played "One More Time, Goodbye, Ballad Of BIlly Rose, Red Carpet Material, Anymore, Roxy, and Down which Amber Nicol took over on bass for; and as a special treat, they played Amazing Grace coming off their new album currently in production. They ended the show at 1:00 AM, and the crowd wanted more, ENCORE, ENCORE they shouted. The guys eagerly agreed, Miguel took over the bass and Todd got on the mic saying "Ok, Ok, we have one more song for you, and we all know what song you wanna hear." Then the guitars started to play Free Bird; a song that joined the band when they were playing covers back in 2003-04, and 16 Second Stare knows how to rock it out. Todd whose a great southern guitarist, makes the song magical. After the show, 16 Second Stare hung around with their fans, signing autographs and having drinks to celebrate a job well done.

11.18.2008 16 Second Stare ROCKS Stamford Saturday, November 15th 2008 the ritzy town of Stamford Connecticut, satelite home of the University Of Connecticut, got a taste of what the south has to offer the rock world with 16 Second Stare. The band has charted on UCONN's radio station which helped bring the band to Connecticut to play. Its the first time they ever played in New England, and they didn't disappoint. The show was played at Rack N' Roll, a local bar and grill with a pool and concert hall mixed in. A place fit for the tired college student looking for something to unwind with after a hard day of learning. 16 Second Stare came to wake them up; they started the night off playing Down, followed by Anymore, Take Me Back, Red Carpet Material, Ballad Of Billy Rose, Better Man, One More Time and finished the night off with the hard rock sound of Roxy; off their album Red Carpet Material. The band was on the ball and brought energy to the stage playing to a great crowd. One of the viewers came all the way from Indonesia to watch them play, a Facebook friend that certainly showed her dedication to the band. 16 Second Stare not only made an impression on the owner of the club, but the featured band Human X as well. After the show, one of the members came up to me and said “Dude, you guys ROCK! What a great sound you have.. I see great things for them in the future.” What a great compliment to hear especially from another hard rock band. This was the last stop of their northern tour, that started in New York City. The band now heads back home to Tampa, then onto Miami; to put on another show at the end of the week at the Dive Bar in Ft. Lauderdale.
11.05.2008 INDEPENDENT MUSIC CONFERENCE (IMC) 16 Second Stare performs on stage at Hollywood's Musicians Institute at The Independent Music Conference.

Since opening its doors in 1977, Musicians Institute has primed over 20,000 musicians, producers, engineers, vocalists and industry professionals for successful careers in every genre of contemporary music. Located just blocks from the Capitol Records tower, MI has an incredible history of innovation dating back to its origins in 1977 as the Guitar Institute of Technology (GIT), which broke new ground as a performance-based contemporary music school taught by working professionals. Within a few years, GIT was joined by bass and drum programs to form Musicians Institute and the evolution has continued to this day with degree and certificate programs for career-minded guitarists, bassists, drummers, vocalists, keyboardists, recording engineers, independent producers, guitar makers, music business professionals and filmmakers.
