Get Up And Dancing With The Blue Moon Band

By Scott Sullivan


This is a group that is based in Northern California, and have loved playing there for many years. Their popularity has spread due to their long and successful career. The Blue Moon Band is now widely hailed as the best group to book for any private event or party because of their popularity in the wine country of California.

There are so many bands where only one or two people sing, and this is such a limitation for the group on how many vocal harmonies they can have, as well as backing vocals and counterpoints. Since everyone in this group sings, there is no backup vocal or harmony that is lost. The horn plays and rhythm section all help out with the vocals.

It takes a talented group of percussionists to be able to navigate flawlessly through all the different tempos and rhythmic patterns of the various styles of music this group plays. The drummers and percussionists in this group know how to keep the beat of a song going. They always have the groove of every song locked in tight.

It is hard to find a better vocalist than Shanin Sharmeon Jones. Besides being one of the leading singers in this group, she has had a long career as a studio session musician, not just as a singer but also as a percussionist. She has also worked as a songwriter and a voice actor. This broad range of experience gives Jones the ability to hone in on any emotion and style in the songs she sings, and delivers it to the audience beautifully.

This is one of those bands that transcends the decades and many different genres, exemplifying their range of talents and skills. Everyone in the audience will have something to love from Motown, rock n' roll, disco, rhythm and blues, and even swing music that is sure to get people dancing. This makes them one of the most versatile bands out there.

Anyone who has had the good fortune of stumbling upon this group when they were at a local fair or grand opening event in this area, they know firsthand how great they are as performers. There is no type of gig or situation that they cannot handle, and no audience that they can't play for. They are also known to play at corporate parties.

It is easy to contact this group to find out what their schedule of upcoming performances is, or to see if they are available to be booked. Their website has all the information necessary, and there is also a biography of each member of the group so anyone can find out more about them. It is also easy to find samples of their performances to hear and see what they're like.

The many times that they played smaller venues faithfully and were repeatedly requested to play again year after year helped this group build up a reputation that eventually attracted the attention of larger venues. They then went on to play before larger audiences and receive more exposure to get them bigger and bigger gigs. Even though they have had so much success and are known to upstage the headliners they are opening for, they are still known to play smaller more intimate venues as well.
