January 21, 2025Had the chance to work with Shannon at the Greater Sacramento Urban Leagues Black History Celebration two years ago. He put one great show that was very diverse and appropriate for all ages. I decided to use him at a campaign fundraiser, and he had the participants cracking up. He understood the area and was even accessible after his performance. I would love to see him perform at other Sacramento area clubs. He could be a headliner easy!

January 20, 2025It was an amazing performance. He had the crowd wrapped around his finger. He reminds me of a young Eddie Murphy. Everybody was laughing.

January 20, 2025We hired Shannon Battle to perform at our wedding which was held in silicon valley. The wedding was held at a very upscale venue and Shannon knocked it out the park. He made our special day both memorable and enjoyable. Shannon delivered on his promise and our friends still smile everytime we talk about the reception and Shannon's performance. I am glad we could afford him before he goes global.

January 20, 2025Shannon provided a refreshing experience of being able to let loose and laugh unapologetically with him. He was a breath of fresh air, that made the celebration more enjoyable. He was professional, respectful and humble. I am definitely recommending him to friends & family who need his kind of talent for future events.
