About Shane

Reliable, versatile and talented bass player that never disappoints.
Bass Guitarist
Bristol
Public liability insurance of £5 million

Nearly 20 years as a musician, 16 of those years as a bass player. From my humble roots in Bristol I've gone from classically trained on trumpet, to playing keys and finding my calling on Bass guitar. Straight away i was hooked and couldn't put it down! I attended Access to Music college for three years. I have played for over 10 years with Bristol's best function band The Treasury which has taken me all over the country, playing in many of the countries finest wedding venues, holiday parks and military bases for the Army and RAF. When I'm not playing with the Treasury you will find me depping for local bands or with local Bristol based band The Longshots. I have also been bass tech for Richard Jones on various occasions. (The Feeling, Sophie-Ellis Bextor) I consider myself a natural leader and keep myself very organised. I have my own transport and will travel far if needed. I use a Musicman Stingray and Stingray5.

These guys were fantastic at a wedding I was at last night. They kept the crowd dancing all night with a great range of songs and showmanship. Loved it when the singers stepped onto the dance floor and showed off some Michael Jackson moves!

Seen these guys today preforming two sets at Leigh Court and I thought they were amazing. Lovely, friendly bunch of professional musicians that played stuff from the 50’s right up to present day, some with there own twist and some true to the original artists. Two lead singers with cool moves that will get you dancing from the minute they start . Book this band and you will be truly entertained throughout your evening or event
