There is no Chuck here. No, he’s not the lead singer. No he’s not the inspiration for the music. He was the high school janitor... the janitor who droned on and on about his lifelong dream involving a ’Picture Show”. They never knew what the hell he was talking about. After all, they were just teenagers who wanted to get through high school and move on. But fast-forward 4 years later…those three friends had a dream of their own. A dynamic 3-piece rock act with a growing fan base, and no name… The Chuck Shaffer Picture Show was the logical choice. Affectionately dubbed CSPS, the band’s members Ryan Johnson (Vocals/Guitar), David Stiefel (Bass), and Patrick Kenney (Drums) began winning over fans, up and down the East Coast with their energetic live show, filled with radio ready rock. Having shared the stage with a growing list of national acts including Papa Roach, Seether, Saving Abel, Sick Puppies, 10 Years, Red, Crossfade, People In Planes, Civil Twilight, Smile Empty Soul, The Dangerous Summer, CKY, The Dirty Heads, Hawthorne Heights, Conditions, Parmalee and Boombox. CSPS has not only grabbed the attention of fans, but industry pros as well. The band has also enjoyed featured airplay on Richmond’s 102.1, DC101, 98.5 in Harrisonburg, VA and played various premium radio events such as 102.1’s legendary Chili Cook-Off. The Chuck Shaffer Picture Show released their debut full-length album “For Your Eyes Only”, recorded and produced by Justin Thomas (Dark New Day, Faktion, Alter Bridge) and mastered by Nathan James at The Vault Mastering (Staind, The Fray) in January 2009. The album featured a performance by Australia’s own Orchestra X. In 2011, the band hit the studio with Thomas once again, this time accompanied by co-producer Brett Hestla (Dark New Day, Tantric, Framing Hanley). The band churned out 6 of their strongest tracks to date and titled the album “Protect Your Silence”. In fact, the title track features Hestla’s unmistakable vocals. In November 2012, CSPS would win the prestigious ‘Rockstar UPROAR Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands’ and be given a coveted slot on Rockstar UPROAR 2013 alongside Alice in Chains, Jane's Addiction, Coheed & Cambria, Circa Survive, and more! In January of 2013, the band headed to Hollywood to record their third release with legendary producer Jay Baumgardner at NRG Recording Studios. The brand new EP, Temporary Fix, released June 25th worldwide and CSPS is gearing up for a summer of touring. There is no Chuck here! This is the official Facebook page for CSPS.
