Unforgettable Entertainment!

Key points:
Easy to work with
Plays music for everyone
Flawless execution
An unforgettable party!

Shallow 9 blew the roof off at our wedding reception! The dance floor was packed all night because the band did such a great job reading the vibe of the room. They have a wide range of music anywhere from Wonderful tonight by Eric Clapton to The real Slim Shady to Pink Pony Club and Ocean Avenue by Yellowcard! During the planning process, we had a meeting and a few phone calls with Todd to iron out any details and he knew exactly what they needed to do so that we didn't have to stress about them at all! Shallow 9 was flawless while MCing and playing music at our wedding reception. We've been told that it was an unforgettable party for everyone at the reception, and a major part of that was thanks to Shallow 9. My wife and I would recommend Shallow 9 to play at any event, especially a wedding!!

Lloyd & Kay Wedding

Erica was very professional and did a great with coordinating the music prior to and after the ceremony. The band did sound checks prior to the ceremony to ensure the volume was good for our guests. The band was willing to learn new songs and did a fantastic job performing them. They were very engaging with our guests. We would highly recommend them for your event.

Party on the Lakefront

We hired Shallow 9 to play for a boat Regatta on the lakefront. Over 100 people were on the property not to mention the multitude of boats that floated off-shore to listen and party to the music.

They played such a diverse playlist that everyone of all ages had a blast!! All current songs as well as classics. Erica’s voice and ability to change with the music style was incredible!!

We would highly recommend Shallow 9 for anyone who wants to have an unforgettable day or evening!!
