Other acts includesd a barn dance called by staff from hydraulic access platform manufacturer Niftylift, magician Stephen Baker, of Baker Tilly, and a set from professional comedian Jimmy James Jones.
Milton Keynes Community Foundation and Arts Gateway MK – which both entered bands into the event – are to split the £5,000 proceeds from the evening.
Baker Tilly’s Milton Keynes office managing partner Terry Saunders said: “It was a remarkable event and shows just how the local businesses can come together in a creative manner to support the local community.
"After the first event we wondered how we could grow, but thanks to Marshalls we had everything we needed to put on a professional show. We look forward to next years event, with some new faces gracing the stage.”
