The band was spot on. Everybody was still on the dance floor at 1am wanting more, I think they could have gone on for hours!

Just a quick email now the dust has settled and the balloons have deflated to say thanks again for such a professional and stress free service and great performance on the night. There’s been a real buzz of appreciation for the whole thing from our guests, which makes it all worth it!

I have been planning events for the Metropole for years - I have seen a lot of bands, and I can certainly say that The Shakedown surpassed any other act I have seen. Their show was completely off the charts, and the overall professionalism and ability of the musicians is second to none - I couldn’t recommend them more.
