Original songs. Hilarious entertainment. Great musical chops.
Welcome to the official McShane & Shaw website
Ralph Shaw and Chris McShane are multi-instrumentalists from Yorkshire who have honed their craft everywhere from Barnsley to British Columbia.
Watch and be delighted by virtuoso music, tight harmonies, family friendly comedy, original funny songs, timeless classics, audience interaction and sparkling wit – be taken back to what entertainment used to be before it all got ruined by reality TV.
Find out who we are in the About Us section, see performances on the Video page and make sure to check out our Bandcamp page where you can sample and buy Dad Dancing, the eclectic new album (see above) and a selection of singles.
We do performances all year round (book us!) and a list of upcoming shows can be found below.
We look forward to seeing you!
