The Shakers were fantastic and really made our wedding reception extra special! They didn’t disappoint and many of our friends and family asked where we found them because they were so good. I made a spotify playlist with songs from their song catalog which I sent to them and they put together a fantastic set list. Additionally, they learnt our requested wedding song which was played beautifully. The photo is of the groom on stage with the band singing Wonderwall. Thank you so much Shakers and we hope to hear you again.

What a fantastic band. Without hesitation book LeRoy And The Euphonics you won’t be disappointed. Smooth running from start to finish, James was a pleasure to deal with. On the big night for my partners 40th Birthday party they were awesome. Amazing set up, great tunes really professional and the they were really lovely. My only regret we didn’t book them for our wedding the year before but unfortunately covid only allowed 10 people. If you want a cool band with spot on tunes played & sang professionally book LeRoy And The Euphonics. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The band came to play for my dad's 70th birthday. Really friendly guys, who played all the classics, and even welcomed my dad up to play the drums. Everyone had a fab night and would definitely book them again. Thank you Below The Border

Neil and Mark were absolutely brilliant, we could not rate them anymore. They have been more than accommodating, from learning a song for our first dance (which they performed better than we could have hoped) to being really flexible and ready to go for us in an instant. 11/10 would recommend for anyone, and will definitely keep their details for future parties.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.

Playing a complete mixture of music is the best way to make sure that everyone gets to hear something they really like. We don't work to a fixed setlist, but prefer to watch our audience and chop/change our music selections to suit. That way we can make sure the dance floor is always full. Our repertoire is huge and takes in all musical styles/genres such as Swing, Rock 'n' Roll, Motown & Soul, 60's, 70' Disco, 80's, Indie/Rock and of course, current chart hits too.
