I have booked Chris and the guys this Festive period for two large corporate events I have been organising. I cant speak more highly of the guys, professional and helpful throughout the whole process and were beyond amazing when it came to the playing the actual events. I also hired the silent disco & bandeoke for one of them which went down an absolute storm! The feedback from the client has been exception and they will most certainly be my go to band going forward! Thank
you again for everything!

Shakers Gold were amazing again. Second time in 4 months I have seen them. You kept the dance floor packed all night. They are a must have at any function. Thanks again from Stuart and Everyone who was at the function in Andover on Saturday.

Shakers Gold were amazing at our Xmas function. They provided an acoustic set during the meal which was unbelievable. They really set the scene. Then after the meal provide great tunes which everyone was up dancing to. Can't recommend them enough. We will definitely use them again in the future

Shakers Gold were AMAZING at our wedding; we couldn't have asked for more. They kept everyone dancing all night and so many guests commented on how fantastic the band were. As newly weds, we have loved looking back at the pics of everyone having such a good time and dancing the night away! The defining moment was definitely when my husband and I found each other on the dance floor for Shakers Gold final (sob!) number, Mr Brightside. Lots of jumping and hugging ensued; it was a fab way to end the night, as guests shouted 'more'! Shakers Gold.. you. are. brilliant!

Chris and Shakers Gold were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. No request was too much and the dance floor was full the entire night - a testament to how great they were! We'd definitely recommend them to all of our friends.

We had Shakers Gold at our kitesurfing armada festival this year. It was a fantastic gig, the crowd loved it, and they created exactly the right atmosphere for the festival. Everyone was singing along with their hands in the air, a brilliant night.

This band do the biz! They know what an audience wants and deliver it with style and energy. A fully professional and slick outfit, they can play just about any style with authority and panache.
We all loved them at Exeter RWC2015 Fanzone and I would certainly book them again for any event that calls for a top-class band.

We chose the band having seen them play at our friend's wedding. They are a fantastic band and play a wide variety of music which is ideal for weddings and ensured the dance floor was heaving all night! They even accommodated our first dance song for us despite the short notice (sorry!) - and nailed it! In short; a perfect band!

Our 1st dance with you guys!! We cannot thank you guys enough for how amazing you were!
Everyone has been asking where we found you and I've heard nothing but compliments! You are truly fantastic!! Thank you Matthew for putting me in touch with them!! Having you guys as the duo while we were eating was perfect too! I'm your new number 1 fan!!

Dealing with Shakers Gold was an absolute pleasure – at every stage. They responded to any query quickly and efficiently (which certainly set them apart from other bands we investigated). They kept in contact all the way through from booking to the event. Their website demonstrates how seriously Chris and the others take their business. On the night they arrived, set up with no fuss, put on an amazing performance, played the music we wanted to hear in between their sets and
made our ‘wedding do’ the ‘party’ we had wished for. Thanks to all of you

Booking a band for the most important day of your life is nerve racking, to say the least. We really liked your clips, but it still wasn't an easy choice. After much deliberating we decided to take the plunge.
In the build up you were really responsive to all of our questions & on the day you turned up & set up discretely and when we were ready to go, you put on a great show. Not only did you sound amazing, you looked the part as well. With a professional setup, great set list and enough energy to keep everyone going all night. It was absolutely fantastic & we couldn't have asked for anything more.

We couldn't recommend you highly enough it capped off an amazing day and the fact that you setup outside under the fairy lights so we could dance away the night with friends & family was magical. My only regret was that you had to stop.
Thank you so much for making our wedding so special. I don't know what I had to worry about!

Best of luck with the rest of the year, I hope it's a busy one.

Shakers Gold were recommended to us for our wedding and we will be doing the same! We opted for the Jazz duo followed by the four piece band and DJ and couldn't be happier with how the whole night went! The band were discreet to set up/shut down and the transition between band and DJ was so smooth. The band had everyone up on the dancefloor within minutes of playing and we remained there all night! It was a brilliant atmosphere and we can't thank them enough.

Lauren & Andy Hardiman (Wedding) 14 Jan 2022

The band made our day and night! The duo came and set up without a fuss and the band were very professional and interacted with the crowd, they were great fun. I organised our wedding from Australia and it was clear to see on their website that the band would be great. We didn't want an average wedding band and the band exceeded our expectations. I would definitely recommend booking this band!

Hollie & Ashley Halls (Wedding) 14 Jan 2022

We booked Shakers Gold for our wedding celebrations after watching their promo video & we are so pleased we did, they exceeded all expectations. They really started the party, getting young and old up dancing within minutes of playing. They performed our first dance song wonderfully. Many guests have passed comment on how great the band were throughout the evening & the dance floor was never empty.The band were discreet in setting up/down & were really responsive to all communication beforehand.
We all had a fantastic time and can’t thank Shakers Gold enough! Now looking for an excuse to have you play again!!
Thanks again, and we’ll be sure to follow you and come and see you play in the future

Shakers Gold were fantastic at our wedding. We requested a first dance that wasn't on their play list, and they were more than happy to accommodate. Their version of 'you are the sunshine of my life' was brilliant. The sets they played were relevant to the people on the dance floor, and they kept everyone moving. They were happy to be flexible on the night when we had to make some last minute changes to when food was available, and when the cake was cut, and they liaised directly with the venue where necessary. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

We booked Shakers Gold for our corporate event following a recommendation and they were amazing – not only the music, which got the party started, but also a couple of sessions of Bandeoke, which was great fun. The addition of a Photo Booth just ticked all of the boxes and our evening was complete – a huge success. A huge thank you to Shakers Gold!

Hi Chris, just wanted to thank you and the band for helping to make our company’s 40th Anniversary celebration a resounding success. We had over 140 guests and have had so many comments on how fantastic the band were.

Shakers Gold played at my Daughters wedding and being a Musician myself I did spend hours looking at the internet trying to find the right band.
I can now save you that Time. Book Shakers Gold you cannot go wrong. A great bunch of people to deal with and highly talented Musicians with a very professional presentation of all the songs that will get your party dancing until the end of the evening. Shakers Gold are the Real Deal.

We're really pleased we chose Shakers Gold to perform at our wedding reception at Kings Weston House. They were full of energy and enthusiasm, and the choice of songs went down well with all our guests! Chris and the band were polite, professional and flexible. It was also convenient that the band were familiar with the venue. We would highly recommend them!

A huge thank you to Chris and The band for playing at our wedding at Priston Mill on 13th May.
We had seen the band a few times at gigs so we knew they were excellent,but they absolutely rocked our wedding, the dance floor was full from start to finish, young and old! It was just what we had dreamed of.
Not only were the band great, but Chris gave us some great advice beforehand about timings etc based on his experience- which was spot on and really helped. They set up and packed away quickly and dealt directly with the venue so didn't disturb our day at all.
Really professional and most importantly played great floor filling classics, and the vocals worked perfectly with every song.
Finally, the band also managed our playlist for before their set and during the interval too which was fab. If you are thinking of booking this band- do it!

When tasked with the job to book a band for our Summer Ball on Weston-super-Mare pier, I knew Shakers Gold would be perfect and booked them without hesitation. They played at our Wedding last year & went down a storm.
If you're looking for a great band who are professional & sound amazing then look no further!
I'm sure we will see them again in the near future.....
Thank you again to Chris & the band

Our wedding was perfect and my wife and I owe a huge thank you to Shakers Gold for playing a big part in this. The rendition of the first dance was excellent, as was the whole set. Kept people dancing while not being overpowering and adjusted to late timing changes without difficulty.

Shakers Gold performed at our wedding in July, they were absolutely amazing and very accommodating... we asked them to perform our first dance - All I want for Christmas! It wasn’t something they usually sang but they rehearsed leading up to the wedding and got into the spirit by dressing in Christmassy outfits which was a surprise, even for us thank you guys for making our first dance so memorable for us and our guests.

Had the absolute pleasure of working with Shakers Gold at Believe Christmas Parties throughout the first three weeks of December. So impressed with how professional, friendly and helpful they were in the build-up to the event and throughout - nothing was too much trouble and their main priority was our guests and ensuring that they had the best experience possible, which helped in putting our minds at ease during a very stressful period. Very engaging and a huge hit with our guests (proven by a full dance floor every evening!) Would definitely recommend for any event where a fantastic live band is needed. Thank you so much again :) x
