Bandits on the Run

Bandits on the Run is the musical trio of Adrian Enscoe, Sydney Shepherd, and Regina Strayhorn, comprised of 3 lead singer/songwriters, guitar, cello, suitcase drum, accordion, and various toy instruments. Formed upon a chance encounter while busking in the subways of New York City, the Brooklyn based outfit has gone on to receive accolades from NPR Music's All Songs Considered, American Songwriter, Rolling Stone, Paste, NPR Weekend Edition, and the Johnny Mercer Songwriters Project. In addition to several albums and EPs, the Bandits have composed music for the Netflix children's animated series "Storybots," scored the movie The Same Storm, written and produced a short musical film "Band At The End Of The World" commissioned by Prospect Theater Company, composed music for Shakespeare's As You Like it at Carnegie Mellon University, and toured the globe with appearances at the Cambridge Folk Festival, Floydfest, Milwaukee Summerfest, Americanafest, the F1 Singapore Grand Prix, Rocky Mountain Folks Fest, and many others.

Currently the Bandits are working on the musical adaptation of What's Eating Gilbert Grape in association with MCC Theater, alongside actor-musician Christopher Sears and Academy Award Nominee Peter Hedges, who wrote the original book and screenplay. This summer Bandits on the Run will be going on tour with Tony Award Winner John Gallagher Jr, who Enscoe will be starring alongside in the musical Swept Away, featuring the music of The Avett Brothers, on Broadway this fall!
