The Shanes (Swedish band)
The Shanes were a Swedish rock band active from 1963 to 1969.
The group played in a variety of British- and American-influenced styles, including British R&B, Merseybeat, and instrumental pop. They were successful in their home country, landing a string of top ten hit singles, including "Chris-Craft No. 9", which reached number 2 there in 1967.
