About
With a repertoire bursting full of colour, this lively duo are fully prepared to take on events of all shapes and sizes. With heaps of enthusiasm and an abundance of talent, The Shakes are ideal for corporate events, parties, birthdays, weddings and more.
A quick look at their extensive repertoire shows how diverse their musical tastes are - the band take on songs from well-known legends such as Stevie Wonder, Elvis Presley, The Jackson 5 and the BeeGees as well as covering contemporary music from Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars, Adele and Florence & The Machine.
The Shakes feature a classically trained pianist and a formidable vocalist, both of which have bags of experience performing across the UK. The duo come fully self-contained and are flexible with their approach to each event, making sure your special occasion has the perfect ambience and that guests are having a blast!
We were so thrilled with The Shakes. We’d score them 10/10 for all the questions! We loved how they enquired whether we had any requests and played some songs by The Beatles which was really special for us. We had so many comments on how great the band were and her voice in particular. They were a great addition to our wedding day and I’d definitely recommend them. Thank you so much!
