the shy boys story

Once Upon A Time...

  

The Shy Boys started with a few guys sitting around a campfire talking about all of the songs that moved and defined their generation. Someone picked up a guitar and the rest just came together. 


Their shows are electric and you cannot help but jump in the fray when you hear and see them. One minute you are singing along to an old favorite and the next, you are dragging your partner onto the dance floor. No genre is sacred…no era off limits. If it moved the world, they will play it. 


Since their debut at a local coffee shop more than a decade ago, The Shy Boys have been drawing fans and rocking parties, festivals, clubs, beaches and homes ever since. They have headlined small parties, major festivals and everything in between. They have even opened for a few big-name touring acts including Huey Lewis and the News and The Doobie Brothers. 


Known for amazing harmonies and multi-instrumental talents, The Shy Boys consistently capture the spirit and vibrancy that made these songs what they are. Also known for chemistry, stage presence and performance skills, they love to engage their audiences with wild and woolly antics, always leading the charge into full-blown revelry.  While the lineup has evolved over the years, the mission statement remains the same:   


"To provide a unique and memorable entertainment experience through professionalism, excellent musicianship, careful song and content selection, top notch customer service, and an unyielding emphasis on fun."


Come for the music, stay for the fun! We promise you won’t be disappointed!!
