Review Centre: Soul Bands

"Please thank the band for making the evening amazing, being professional and well organized. The full band including the brass created a full complete sound which many of my guests commented on. The dance floor was filled! I have spent the last week receiving compliments saying how good the band was and how did I find you! In particular, the Florence songs were fantastic."

"I booked the Smokin Mirrors for my wedding and it was MAGICAL. The whole event was running behind and they were so flexible about it, they were prompt, understanding, and they ROCKED! We hired them for the drinks reception and we hired a larger band for after dinner...I received so many more compliments about these women than the 10 piece band we had later on. I should have just held on to them for the whole day! "

"I absolutely loved this pair. I recently planned a wedding in Duns, Scotland and Sally & Graham drove over an hour to play about 3 hours at my event. Everything went completely perfectly, from our communication beforehand, the song list, them adding songs I requested, the location and sound quality for their sets, and setup/tear down. I wanted a relaxed, acoustic sound with talented musicians definitely not a DJ party wedding band, so this duo was perfect for that. This website and this band are excellent value for the range and, again, quality of the music, 100% worth the price and more. Before the event, I gave them some some requests including Africa by Toto, which they REWROTE and learned in their own style (HUGE HIT and really surprised my husband). Also we coordinated a place for them to setup, the times of the sets, and what meals they wanted to have, and everything went off without a hitch. They were also so very sweet and wonderful people that they really impressed all my guests who were complimentary and wondering where I found such an amazing band. One of the best things about the Scotswood Acoustic Duo is how their song list covers a huge variety of music that they somehow play all equally wonderfully. So everyone's music tastes were satisfied and it made for very interesting listening, this was one of the compliments I heard alot. There are just so many nice things to say, please book this band and get them doing music full time because they are AMAZING!"

"We couldn’t have asked for a better musician for our wedding. Callum played beautifully throughout the day, creating the perfect atmosphere and making every moment feel even more special. Communication with him was excellent from start to finish, he was incredibly friendly and professional. The highlight for me was my bridal entrance. Callum matched the tempo of the music perfectly to my walk down the aisle, making the moment feel absolutely magical. Our guests kept commenting on how beautiful the music was, and everyone was so impressed. I honestly couldn’t recommend Callum more highly. Thank you for making our wedding day so unforgettable!"

"We hired the Marvellous Souls for our wedding evening. One of our biggest concerns when wedding planning was that no one would be dancing on the dance floor. We couldn’t have been more wrong. The dance floor was full all night thanks to the amazing talent and engagement from the band. Each member is incredible at what they do and they are such genuine lovely people. We went with the 6 piece band and it was a perfect dynamic, the band played so well together. We also hired the DJ who created a great atmosphere before the band and kept everyone dancing after the band finished. The wedding venue even said it’s the best band they have ever had at the venue! The communication prior to the wedding was first class and we were immediately put at ease and felt well taken care of. They were very organised, professional and everything went very smoothly, we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Would 100% recommend booking The Marvellous souls if you are looking for talented musicians, a good time and professionalism! Thank you for making our wedding day so memorable and fun! "

"We hope you're all well and recovered from Saturday night? Wow. We could not have asked for a more perfect band to play at our wedding - all of our guests were blown away and have been consistently commenting that you are the best band they have ever seen. It was incredible! We had the best day of our lives and you were all such a huge part of that. I don't remember ever seeing an empty dance floor and have the blisters to prove it!! We will be recommending you to everyone we meet! Thanks again. "

"I just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for your performance at our wedding. It was fantastic and I've had numerous comments on how great you were and people asking for your details. You kept the dancefloor going all evening and I even saw a couple of people who claim that they don't dance up there! "

"Just want to say a huge thank you to the amazing Groove Allstars. They played at our wedding at Guyzance Hall in June. They were extremely professional and really listened to what we wanted. The music was outstanding and the dance floor was packed all night. We were so impressed. Cannot rate them highly enough and would definitely recommend. The highlight was their rendition of Three Little Birds by Bob Marley which they learnt for our first dance. Thanks again to all of you- you really made our night!
