Our Songs
SHAKY GROUND is first and foremost a “dance” band. If a song moves you irresistibly to the dance floor, chances are they’ll play it.
Not just an “oldies” band, or a “blues” band, or even a “classic rock” band. They are not limited to any one style – or any one decade. You’ll hear the best music from all the best artists – four decades of classic hits.
The band’s extensive song list spans almost every type of music – rock, pop, R&B, funk, country, blues, ballads, oldies, latin, etc. As a result, they are able to tailor their sound to suit almost any occasion – from soft easy listening to hard rockers.
Their high level of musicianship allows them to respond to requests from the audience as the evening unfolds – even playing songs ‘off the cuff’ they may never have rehearsed or played before. As a result, every show is different and fresh – not a canned and scripted performance.
