She Shall Have Music is a 1935 British musical comedy film directed by Leslie S. Hiscott and starring Jack Hylton, June Clyde and Claude Dampier. Hylton played himself in a story built around a millionaire shipowner who hires a band (led by Hylton) to publicise his ships.[1] It was also released as Wherever She Goes.

The film was made at Twickenham Studios. The film's sets were designed by the art director James A. Carter.

For distribution in the United States, to comply with the 1930 Motion Picture Production Code scenes involving portions of two songs and a dance featuring "an undue amount of nudity" were removed.[2]
