25.01.2022 Hello friends! Nicko here. This is a little montage of images of the Shakey boys (and friends) from 15 years ago and onward. The images are set to music, in fact a song called "You're Like Alcohol", written by myself (with lyrical help from Harry Hobbit). The song is strictly a demo only. There will be a re-record down the line. Backing vocals and even saxophone are yet to be recorded, so forgive us if it's a little raw but I couldn't help myself and so here it is. Fifteen years of Shakey images.
25.01.2022 Come and have a great afternoon at the Gal with King Shakey and all our friends! ... and as a bonus you can help us raise some money for fire affected communities :) See you all there this Saturday from 1pm https://www.facebook.com/events/3490121874335743/

03.01.2022 It is with great regret that King Shakey announce the termination of our long long association with the Hamilton Station Hotel. They have supported us since roughly 2008, through some amazing shows, and for that we thank them and Tristan Heels in particular. But someone in the neighbourhood has had their Saturday afternoon rest time disturbed, and so a great decade long musical tradition of the Summer months has come to an end. To the those lovely folks who followed us there, the regulars who enjoyed us, and the GTS guitar students who will no longer have that particular platform for performance, we apologise. But we must let the nice people rest in peace now on Saturdays. Look through the pics we ask you my friends. Very very very good times! We shall take the show elsewhere. Standby for more...

What a blast, we'll do it all again soon. Band pics to come. ALL pics courtesy Ryan Fitzgerald.
