The Shakedown is the PNW’s wedding band for lovers who love music.
"This band is beyond spectacular! They played our wedding and were exceptionally professional in planning, worked with us to come up with an amazing custom playlist, and completely blew everyone in attendance away. This band is no joke - they are all incredible musicians.
Family and friends still talk about how fun the band was years later. Every single person there was on the dance floor for hours.”

“Highly recommend The Shakedown as your wedding band and for any other event for that matter.
They performed at our wedding for 275+ and had all the guests dancing until the end of the night.
They are a fantastic group - they helped MC the event, learned our first dance song requests, and even played through a brief power outage.
We've highly recommended them to all of our friends and have loved seeing them play again and again at their weddings.”
