The following video clips are included here to give people an opportunity to see the range of songs that Shack sings. The quality of the videos and sound can vary a great deal because some were filmed with fairly basic equipment, for example in places with a “dead” microhome (no effects at all). However, they are watchable for this purpose. It is also fair to say that Shack’s repertoire is nowadays much wider than this with more upbeat songs and more modern material. Unfortunately most venues do not have the capacity to video shows or are not able to share them with the artist.
The videos are in three groups below, first a variety of concert performances, then some examples of duets from singing competitions and finally examples of solos from a number of musical theatre productions.
