Review Centre: Soul Bands

"The band was so great, and loads of our guests commented how awesome they were too. All through the booking process, Martin kept in touch and listened to everything we were asking for and the band absolutely delivered! We were so happy and can't recommend then highly enough! "

"Juneteenth with PBSO was powerful and unforgettable.I attended the Juneteenth celebration and PBSO’s set was the highlight of the day. Their performance was more than entertainment; it was a celebration of culture, freedom, and excellence. They brought so much heart and soul to the stage, honoring Black history through every song. The crowd was engaged, the music was rich, and the atmosphere was electric. I felt proud, seen, and inspired. "

"Monico were absolutely fantastic, we couldn't have asked for a better wedding band! Their communication was great and on the night they arrived and set everything up in the background extremely quickly and professionally, without disrupting the rest of the evening. They even provided lighting as we only had a couple of small lights at the venue. Their song selection was perfect and their playing and vocals were incredible! We had so many compliments from our guests and they had people up and dancing from the very first song they played! On top of this, they were really nice friendly guys to deal with. I can't recommend them highly enough! Thanks again for a great night!"

"The Cheers were absolutely incredible! We booked them for our wedding evening reception and they created such a fun atmosphere and got everyone on the dance floor. The communication we had beforehand was so helpful, they send through a questionnaire so they’ve got all the information they need and they were really helpful in advising what songs would sound best with the vocals we had chosen. Our wedding was in a marquee and we were a bit concerned about the band setting up in the same space as the wedding breakfast but we honestly barely noticed them arriving. They also paused the music and announced our cake cutting when we were running behind schedule. Would 100% recommend."

"L’efficacité de la musique dans les cinq films de Quentin Tarantino a beaucoup à voir avec la façon dont il perçoit la musique. Tarantino pense que les chansons en général fonctionnent comme des films miniatures. Il regarde la musique comme un moyen de prolonger les intrigues de ses films. La bande originale a la responsabilité non seulement de donner le ton de la scène, mais aussi d'apporter de la clarté aux émotions qui ne sont pas pleinement exprimées par les personnages. Tout cela fonctionne de manière transparente parce que Tarantino entend d'abord la chanson, puis écrit une scène autour d'elle. Il n'est donc pas surprenant que la musique ait un impact si remarquable dans ses films. Comment la musique affecte-t-elle la façon dont on perçoit les films de Tarantino ? Il est vrai que toute musique fera réagir le spectateur émotionnellement, mais ce qui compte pour Tarantino, c'est que, la plupart du temps, la musique produit ce qu'il perçoit comme l'impact émotionnel «approprié» sur une scène. Par exemple, si quelque chose d'autre que "Stuck in the Middle With You" avait été choisi pour accompagner la scène "du coupage d’oreille" dans Reservoir Dogs, le public n'aurait peut-être jamais connu les tendances sadiques de Mr Blonde. La clé du succès de Tarantino en évitant la musique perçue comme juste «suffisante» est qu'il écrit tous ses scénarios de film avec une musique spécifique à l'esprit. En étant déterminé dans sa sélection, Tarantino s'assure que la musique de Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill Vol.1 et Kill Bill Vol. 2 joue un rôle actif dans la structure narrative du film et, tout aussi important, qu'il fait quelque chose dont le public voudra se souvenir. Ce sont ces souvenirs que souhaite faire resurgir chez le spectateur les membre de Call me Winston. Cet orchestre « tribute band » nouvellement créé sur la Côte d’Azur est unique dans la Région Sud. Avec ses 10 membres, (chanteur, chanteuse, guitare, basse, batterie, percussion, claviers trompette, saxophone alto, saxophone baryton), il vous remémorera les meilleurs moments de films de Tarantino à travers leur bande son.

"Filippo and Azu were absolutely fantastic. Myself and my wife booked The Mirrors for our wedding day, the most important of our lives and the band did not disappoint in anyway. Communication was great leading up to the wedding. They arrived on time, looking great and then played the most perfect set with wonderful enthusiasm and soul during dinner. There is so much to admire about the talent that both Filippo and Azu possess. Don't wait. Book them. You won't regret it. Hope to see you both again."

"A huge thank you to Groove Collider who did a fabulous set at our fundraising ball recently. They got the whole room up and dancing on one of the hottest nights of the year. They were huge fun and really flexible when we had to juggle timings at the last minute. Would 100% recommend!"

"A fantastic night with some really positive feedback, people thank me but to be fair, I only book the bands and take a punt, on this occasion a massive success. Jennie, you had the club eating out of your hand from Adele to the Timewarp and the three boys put on a fantastic show .... you spoilt us Saturday and we want more, even to the point that ‘Paradise by the Dashboard Light’ is now back on my Spotify playlist, just incredible."

"Part 1 of the long weekend completed. Fantastic night at the Globe Cardiff DJing for Big Mac's Wholly Soul Band. Many years since I last saw them play, won't leave it so long next time they were brilliant, great sound. The place was rammed and shakin with loads of dancers. Great to catch up at last Mike McNamara, top band you have there. Fab night, fantastic band, great crowd. What more could you ask for! Next up Modstock in London Sat & Sun. Got to live the life you love and love the life you live, its a Mod thing innit "

"Excellent. The band were superb. They played for my 60th birthday party and the music was excellent quality and just right for the varied aged audience. They had us all up dancing but people were still able to chat as the volume was just right. . They were very professional in terms of communication, punctuality and quality of sound and music. I wish I could have another celebration to hire them again!!"
