Formados en 1980, Shakatak demostraron ser pioneros significativos como una de las primeras y únicas bandas del Reino Unido en abrazar con éxito la música funk. Lo consiguieron con los éxitos Night Birds y Easier Said Than Done en 1982, que les sirvieron de plataforma para una exitosa carrera internacional en directo y en grabaciones, y para una creciente credibilidad como grupo de jazz puro. El miembro fundador, Bill Sharpe, era un director de estudio de la BBC que al principio empezó a reunir sus ideas de fusión de jazz funk con Trevor Horn, Keith Winter y Roger Odell. Poco a poco, el grupo fue evolucionando hasta convertirse en Shakatak, que encontró un público entregado a su dulce amalgama de ritmos, sobre todo en Japón, donde su álbum Night Birds se convirtió en uno de los discos internacionales más vendidos de todos los tiempos. Siguieron cosechando grandes éxitos a lo largo de la década de 1980, sobre todo después de incorporar a la antigua cantante de Fusion Orchestra, Jill Saward, para su quinto álbum Down On The Street, que desencadenó una nueva racha de éxitos con los sencillos Down On The Street y Watching You. En la década de 1990 se habían convertido en un grupo importante en la escena del jazz estadounidense y aparecían regularmente en festivales de jazz de todo el mundo. En 2010 celebraron su 30 aniversario, aunque cada uno de sus miembros trabaja ocasionalmente en otros proyectos. Keith Winter se vio obligado a abandonar el grupo en la década de 2000 tras una grave enfermedad, pero sigue colaborando en su trabajo artístico y en el mantenimiento de su página web.
