Review Centre: Soul Bands

"We were blown away by the band when they performed at our wedding reception. From the moment they started playing people started dancing and it didn't stop until the end of the night! They learned our first dance, which was a lovely touch and so much nicer than playing a recording. The set list was spot-on for our family and friends, capturing our own musical tastes while still appealing to the guests too. The band have a great presence on stage, lots of energy and the singer's amazing voice. People kept coming up to us all night to say how good the band were and how much they were enjoying the music. Our wedding was in the middle of no-where, but the band were happy to travel and even joined us and some of the rest of the guests in camping at the reception venue. We would highly recommend them!"

"Wow! Book her now! Lol :) Go no further. You need not look for another band. We booked Gloria and guitarist Michael to come and perform at out Engagement party and we had no idea we were booking a star! The beautiful tone and amazing range of Glorias voice and is astounding. Her ability to perform slow, jazzy, soulful songs with a delicate yet captivating ease; or indeed, melt your heart with a romantic classic love song; her ability to channel all that skill, power and love into every note of the more robust and funky songs; and her skillful selection of a perfect and meaningful set list; are only surpassed by her warm, fun and funky, genuinely committed and professional personality. We literally couldn't have asked for more. She was an excellent choice and the star of our party. We were so happy and she is lovely. Thank you again so much!!!! :) xx"

"I hired these guys for my 30th birthday party as I am a big jazz enthusiast and boy did they deliver. It felt like a mixture of stepping into the past with their older repertoire and reliving the present with the newer stuff that they play. Great energy and stage presence as well. Couldn't recommend enough."

"High Key are as good as they come. Our guests often recall how much fun they had dancing to them all night. We went for the full band with the brass section and two singers (male and female), definitely worth it!"

"Soul Messengers were fantastic, we would 100% recommend to anyone looking for acoustic live music for an event. They played at a party that we held in our garden and were brilliant from start to finish. Communication was great from enquiry right through. The songs and their sound were beautiful, reading the room and bringing great energy and authenticity. They are such a talented and professional pair of musicians - we would book again in a heartbeat."

"We had Back2Skool duo play for us as part of jubilee celebrations. The duo part of the band were very fitting to the crowd and was a great finale to our long weekend of celebrations we had had. Both Tracy the vocalist and the guitar player were very friendly and accommodating and the organising of the band was very straightforward. We WILL BE BOOKING THEM AGAIN! Maybe we'll book the whole band next time. Thank you Back2Skool. XX"

"Hi Marcus, Thank you so much for everything on Saturday! To say that you and the band were awesome would be an understatement; you absolutely made our wedding. Although you were a personal recommendation and we had high expectations, you even managed to exceed those! We could not have been any happier. If anyone we know is looking for a band in future, then we’ll be sure to point them in your direction. Thank you so much to all of you again! All the best. "

"Indigo Charm were a great hit with our guests and we received a lot of positive feedback on their performance. We selected a playlist for the band and the choices we made were just right for our audience, encouraging people to get up and dance. It is a little daunting booking a band you have never heard play live as you are never quite sure what you are going to get; I can honestly say that Shamyra and the band met our expectations (and they are quite high) and delivered a fantastic evening’s entertainment. Not only did they sound excellent but Shamyra also brought personality to her performance. We would recommend to anyone. "

"Swing Your Soul played at our Gala Dinner for the conference we were running, and were absolutely fantastic! The conference delegates had a ball and were up dancing right until the end – a sure sign that they were a big hit! Thanks to Ginger and the Swing Your Soul for playing at our event – would highly recommend if you want a cool, funky band to get the party started… and finished on a high note!"
