Why hire Shake and the Chantoosies?

Shake is an 8 piece coast modern group that draws music from all over the juke box. Featuring an eclectic mix of instruments-clarinet, sax, trumpet, guitar, piano, accordion, drums, bass, and boom whackers-a variety of vocalists, and a surprising selection of swing, rock, jazz, blues, contemporary, and original songs, the group brings together the best elements of a cabaret, dance hall and gin joint. The range of styles allows Shake to customize song selection for each gig and to perform for audiences with a mix of ages. You get a big band sound for a very small price.

Bar/Lounge I LOVE Shake and the Chantoosies! I have yet to hear anything less than excellence from them, whether it be vocals or the diverse instruments in the group. The piano/clarinet player is amazing! I love the lead singer's satiny style. Not only are they superb musicians, but they are also impressive composers and arrangers. I go to their gigs every chance I get!

Club/Nightclub I've rarely had more fun in a club than I have watching "Shake and the Chantoosies." This is one of the most unique ensembles you'll ever experience, fronted by a gal with perhaps the single most distinctive voice this side of Sophy Tucker. They are all solid entertainers - Brechtian characters, really - but they manage to keep the music feeling so contemporary you'll swear you're hearing the tunes for the first time. Do yourself a favor and chatch one of their shows. They are as pleasant and addictive as Absinthe, and still legal in all fifty states.
