Happy Customers

Absolutely breathtaking! The band worked seamlessly with our planner and the atmosphere they created was truly unforgettable. Our guests had a wonderful time and couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful everything sounded!

Emi & Oskar

Our guests were pleasantly surprised that we were able to have musicians from China perform at our event! The two musicians created new arrangements for the songs we requested, tailored to the instruments they brought. I even got to hear my favorite TV drama OST performed live during our wedding ceremony. Our friends also loved the live guitar accompaniment they provided!

Ava & Boyang

The band rehearsed together with our guests, which made the experience even more special. Our guests truly enjoyed performing along, and it added so much fun to both my birthday party and our Super Bowl night.

About

YOUR LIVE MUSIC PROVIDER: SHAKA

Our music journey began with a simple idea: the songs we grow up with stay with us for life. As a band made up of musicians from the Chinese community, we love bringing those familiar melodies—songs that shaped memories, friendships, and love stories—into the moments that matter most.

For us, live music is more than just sound in the background. It’s the energy that fills a room, the spark that invites people to sing along, smile, and feel connected. We believe that when music is played live, it has a special way of turning gatherings into shared memories.

Every celebration is unique, and we truly enjoy working closely with planners and hosts to shape the musical atmosphere of the event.

At the heart of what we do is a simple hope: that our music becomes a small but beautiful part of your most meaningful celebrations.

We offer a variety of live music formats to suit different types of events.
