In this movie Tony Schueller and Desert Highway band perform "Shine". He's one of our most favorite singer / singerwriter performers. His songs speak to issues of peace, earth, and honest emotions, but differently than we have heard such things expressed before. Raised in a Wisconsin farming community, Tony wandered into Taos several years ago, and during the past year his music has attracted both respect and attention.Tony's voice is stronger, and his guitar playing more adventurous. Some songs though are different--cut from folk cloth but mixed with a dimensional edge (almost anger but not quite) and then wrapped up in hope. It's all delivered with his guitar, which is often like a duet between his voice and his hand on the strings. As Tony holds the guitar, one sees that it is not a normal instrument-it becomes something more like a thunder arid lightning storm, as he raises his voice above the action, crying for change- Tony does do folk-regular but also strays towards folk-rock and people are simply riveted at his shows. Desert Highway Band members: Justin Dean - Violin, Mark Dudrow - Cello, Tommy Houston - Bass.
