Wedding Testimonials

  • "The Shakedown is hands down the best band! We'd seen them perform and MC at multiple other events and were so lucky to snag them for ours. From the planning and strategizing (Adam is the best!!), to the MC'ing of our ceremony and dinner, to the greatest night of non-stop dancing of our lives- they curated the best evening. Adam and the band members go above and beyond to make sure everyone has a memorable night full of great music and energy. Fully recommend to anyone in the search of a wedding band. (P.S. Don't skip out on the Sax!)."

  • "The Shakedown ROCKS. We didn't leave the dance floor the whole party! We loved working with Adam to plan our event, and they put on a fantastic show for our wedding. Their personalized concert captured the exact types of music we love, and their talent was unbelievable. Book this Band! Months later, we still get compliments from our guests that The Shakedown was the best wedding band they had ever seen."

    — Jess & Jeff

  • "AMAZING band!! When we started planning our wedding, we were leaning towards a DJ- thinking band wasn't worth the cost. So SO happy we decided on a band! Shakedown band was easy to work with and awesome in every way... from the live duet renditions of our ceremony songs, to the beautiful cocktail hour music, and finally exceptional dance floor (had no idea a band could remix songs!). They created a set list based on our preferences but also with some super cool and thoughtful surprises. We have gotten so many comments about how incredible the band was. Would recommend highly!"

Event Testimonials

  • "We had The Shakedown play at my husband’s 40th birthday party, and they were absolutely AMAZING! From the first song to the last, they kept the energy high, and our guests danced the entire night. Their talent is undeniable and they knew exactly how to read the crowd. Not only are they incredible musicians, but they were also a dream to work with. Professional, easygoing, and truly passionate about what they do. They made the night unforgettable, and we’re already looking for another excuse to book them again! If you’re looking for a band that will bring the party to life, The Shakedown is it! Highly recommend!"

    — Carly, event planner

  • “10/10 recommend. This band is incredibly professional, brings the party and puts so much heart into everything they do. As a planner, I work incredibly close with the band/DJ at weddings and they were one of the best to work alongside. Flexible and offering creative solutions as small/big issues arose.”

    — Eva, event planner

  • "We had seen the band previously and [they were] a big reason for coming, they are great. I don't think I sat down for more than a few minutes. Great way to ring in the New Year! "
