Looking to elevate your event with live music that’s soulful, energetic, and unforgettable?

What Clients are Saying
“A few years ago, we booked Shayla McDaniel for our Millennium Partner Appreciation Reception, and she brought exactly the right tone to the event. Her performance was smooth, soothing, and beautifully complemented the atmosphere. We’ve also played her soundtrack during one of our annual Business Expos, which added the perfect background music for the event.
Beyond her musical talent, Shayla is a joy to work and correspond with. She’s professional, punctual, and carries herself with warmth and poise. We’ve also had the opportunity to recognize her as a finalist in one of our Young Professional award categories, which speaks to both her artistry and her character. Shayla is a standout in every sense, and I would gladly recommend her for any event looking to add a meaningful musical element.”
