WATCH: Taylor Swift’s ‘Shake It Off’ Played by Royal Guards Outside Buckingham Palace: “Can’t stop, won’t stop groovin’🫡🥁🎺,” the royal family captioned the post.
The Royal Guard is shaking it up!
The Royal Family shared a video on Instagram of the royal guard playing Taylor Swift’s hit song “Shake It Off” in front of Buckingham Palace on Friday, June 21, ahead of her first round of London concerts this weekend!
In the post, the royal guard could be seen in a half-circle formation playing various instruments including flutes and trumpets. A conductor, with a sword attached at his hip and a guard hat with a red feather, could be seen moving his arms as he led the band in the middle.
The video showed the song played from the top of the second verse into the chorus. Bystanders could be heard bustling around in the background as additional members of the royal guard stood in lines closer to the palace.
During her Wales concert on June 18, the singer shared a special message to fans in the city, writing: “Cardiff!! My first time playing in Wales and that was truly out of control in the best way – looking out into that massive, bouncing, dancing sea of people. I’ll never forget it. I’m absolutely living for these UK crowds.”
During the show’s acoustic set, Swift treated fans to a unique combination of songs including a guitar medley of “I Forgot That You Existed” and Reputation’s “This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things.”
