Biography
When it comes to the repertoire, Shades have it all, and you can expect to hear classic pop, rock, indie and soul delivered with a clear love for what they do. Presley Rain will treat you to carefully curated covers of songs by The Jackson 5, Prince, ABBA, Elvis, Queen, Oasis, Kings of Leon, Amy Winehouse, Olly Murs, George Ezra - the list goes on! Shades standard line-up is a treat of a trio featuring their multi-talented male lead vocalist and guitarist, seriously skilled keys player, and a show-stopper of a drummer offering backing vocals. To say Shades line-up is flexible is a bit of an understatement! A very popular choice (amongst their many options), is to add their fabulous female vocalist and saxophonist creating the perfectly-pitched quintet featured on their video. It's a big event - you want more? How about adding guitar, or bass, or both!
Maybe go the whole hog and add the trumpet too for maximum impact as their awesome 8-piece line-up. This line-up is absolutely perfect to rock your corporate function! It's your big day, so why not start as you mean to go on and book their pianist or saxophonist for a sensational drinks reception, or even treat your guests to a not so average church ceremony whilst they serenade your journey to the alter.
This undeniably wonderful West Midlands band can be hired nationwide, and are exceptionally experienced having performed together for over 16 years! With this much time making memories together, it goes without saying that their chemistry when performing is unrivalled. It's not just a UK road-trip they love, these jet-setters will happily hop on a plane for your international event! If you need a little evidence that these guys are fit to fly, Shades have performed at prestigious venues all over the world including the Emirates Palace and Hilton in Abu Dhabi, Grand Hyatt in Dubai and Kempinski Palace in Africa! When Shades are not performing their live sets they provide event appropriate background music, they even have a manned DJ service available complete with dance floor lighting.

Testimonials
"I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you and your band for your performance at our summer ball. You performed two excellent sets and everyone had a thoroughly enjoyable evening." - Sergeant G Simpson, Defence Academy
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, for once again supplying top class entertainment for the Warrant Officers and Sergeants Mess, Summer Ball. The Shades were nothing short of outstanding. Right from the outset, you had guests on the dance floor, with an aptly named ‘Let Me Entertain You’. Both sets were so powerful and engaging, that I thought literally bring the marquee down. Everyone, I spoke to on the night, and since, commented on how amazing you were." - Shaun Reynolds, PEC Warrant Officers and Sergeants
"We would like to personally thank your group for the entertainment and making it such a success of the recently concluded New Years Eve Gala event in the Emirates Palace. This would not be possible without your very good performance that complimented the entire evening of entertainment. It is very gratifying to have you as one of the major performer’s, which made the event truly memorable." - Emirates Palace Dubai U.A.E.
"I just wanted to say how very much we enjoyed having you all here on Saturday evening to play for James and Pippa’s wedding. We have not had a live band here before, can’t think why after that performance. We all had such a good time and just loved every minute of it!! Thank you so much for all you did to make the evening go so well, it had a terrific buzz and I know everyone had a good time, especially the Bride. While you were packing up, we just sat there saying we really didn’t want it to end. It certainly helped to make the day a truly special one." - Liz Drake
