“A great big thank you from Isobel and I for your show on Saturday evening at our Diamond Wedding Party at the Porlock Weir Hotel. A great performance, which got all us oldies partying into the night! Your range of material was great from romantic ballads to rock and roll. Once more, thank you. We hope to enjoy another of your great performances in the not too distant future. Kindest regards”

“Very few people are blessed with such a great voice - but Shane is one of them. His unique energy is such an inspiration. Without exception, each lady thoroughly enjoyed every second of his performance. And I must add, that his warm personality and ease with an audience is faultless, it was such fun; we could have continued dancing and listening to Shane all day! On behalf of everyone, it was an unbelievably great show, we had a wonderful time. Best wishes”

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Most clients are surprised by how interactive I am with the guests and how much I get them involved in the performance, whether it's getting them to clap along and dance or take the mic and sing along with me. Audience members love taking part and feeling as though they've been part of something special.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

A real highlight is singing with the Ronnie Scott's Jazz Orchestra in Monte Carlo at the Sporting Club where Frank Sinatra recorded a live album in 1958. I've often performed my one-man show at the orchestra's club itself, Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club. Lord's Cricket Ground and my residency at The Hippodrome Casino, London are also a couple of highlights for me.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Frank Sinatra, Michael Bublé, Bobby Darin, Andy Williams, Dean Martin and Harry Connick Jr. Each have distinctive styles that I have studied for many years.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

I've performed for royalty many times but the most high profile was singing for the Princess of Thailand in Bangkok back in 2011. I always love to visit exotic places, especially to sing my favourite music and meet new people.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let us know.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and we actually offer this service for free. If you'd like a DJ service via our PA after the final set until the venue closes, we provide this for an additional £100.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up we can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely! Everything is provided on this end.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes, the price includes up to 3 fully customisable song requests.
