"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!"

"I booked Dave last minute and I’m so glad I did he was great from the start, as soon as I messaged he quickly communicated and was very efficient with booking and finding out what we wanted on our day and nothing seemed like to much trouble! All the guests loves the music at the wedding and was a lovely touch to our day! I would definitely recommend Dave. Thank you 😊"

"My WI group just had one of the best nights out with the Barnbuskers. We are not the best at taking orders but the Caller was very patient and we had such fun. I haven’t laughed that much for a long time and all the ladies present felt the same. Very talented musicians and well worth hiring for an event. Julie x"

"Just wanted to say thank you for playing at our wedding – just the vibe we wanted, AMAZING from start to finish. I’m gutted I missed you’re solo percussive bit – heard loads about it!!!!!! Besides your incredible skill and undoubted talent you’re an absolute gentleman and a pleasure to be around. You made an already special day that little bit better. We cannot wait to see you again once we are back from our honeymoon and will have a catch up with you then"

"We were so impressed with your band at our wedding on 13th June. You created the perfect atmosphere for us all and sounded awesome! We have had so many compliments on the band, your talent and your professionalism from our guests. If the opportunity arises we will definitely seriously consider booking Disco Infernos again "

"It is difficult to capture just how fabulous Lisa was before as well as on the day. She is such a lovely, fun and friendly woman. We really enjoyed working with her in planning the day and her singing down the phone to us as she explored various song suggestions will be a fond memory for us both... leaving us very excited for the day itself. We both love music, as do our families and put a lot of effort to line up some fantastic musical acts in addition to Lisa, including a 6 piece band and a solo guitarist we flew in from abroad. We also had a number of first class entertainers and performers....however despite this, the number one comment we had from every guest during the day and since has been the dramatic and hugely positive impression Lisa had on everyone. We almost felt bad our guests were giving her so much attention and trying to book her for their own events, including a lot of people who had already booked their musicians and were now having second thoughts!! We wanted the wow factor and Lisa certainly provides that. We can’t think of anyone we’ve ever seen musically who is so versatile and yet consistently high quality, indeed... top class. From classical church performances (she is very knowledgable and comfortable in working with you and your ceremony) ... she also learnt a particular piece for us that we’ve never heard covered and yet she delivered it as if it was her favourite song while also very much making it her own. Switching to a top class contemporary set during the drinks reception took everyone by surprise....and her true personality really came out when she switched into a medley of her own hip hop / original numbers blended with a traditional Irish music session, a sing off and an Irish dance combo. There is little to add to what others more qualified have already said in terms of her pure and incredible voice. Beyond this... to give you a sense of her capability... she was able to jam with another musician she only met on the day... to pick up, tune and play a new instrument (family heirloom banjo) as a special request.... to captivate 150 guests of all age ranges and from across the globe, and was able to keep our guests enthralled and enchanted with her for over 6 hours. We’ve met someone who we will enjoy following and listening to for the rest of our lives and who we will always feel lucky we were able to have share our special day. I suspect we will be going to see her gig and perform again very soon (if our guests don’t beat us to it first!). "

"Attended the Sewerby Food Festival this weekend. Great festival with cookery demos from Wolds Cookery School, but the event was really enhanced by the Shamrock Experience - really talented band which kept the visitors entertained and generated a great atmosphere "

"...thank you and all the band for making our wedding go so well. The reason so many were on the dance floor is because you were so good! Should you want to use me as a reference I would be delighted."
