Review Centre: Soul Bands

"The Unknowns have a new EP out. “Uninvited” is a delightful five-song collection that shows off some cool soul and tango influences in addition to the band's usual jazz/pop/folk mix and superb three-part harmonies. Don’t let their ironic naming fool you; you’re going to want to invite this band in and get to know them. "

"I would not hesitate to recommend this band. They played an excellent set, sounded fantastic and everyone at my event had a great time. Very easy to contact, responded to all of my messages and requests promptly. Very accommodating on the night and very helpful. I wish them all every success and will definitely book them to my events again. Thank you."

"Pharaoh & The Beats absolutely made our wedding day! They were professional from the very beginning when I booked them via Encore and they maintained contact right up until the day itself to assist me with any questions I had. Leanne has an incredible voice and all the other musicians were brilliant too. We had so many of our guests asking how we came across the band, commenting on how good they were. We couldn’t be happier at how they got everyone on the dance floor and thank them so much for learning and performing our first dance song! We will definitely be booking them again for any future events!"

"Just to say what a stonking band you are! Brilliant. Last night my wife & I went to Lyndsey's bash at Chichester Marina and enjoyed it immensely helped in no small way by the brilliant music. Didn't want it to stop, but by the perspiration on stage I think you've given your all.....and that's good. My personal highlight was Bonnie Tyler's 'Total Eclipse', What a sound, and what a singer Jennie is! But great sounds kept on coming. The choice throughout was just right for the night and we came away with a buzz. More power to your elbow. Thanks. Will be following you!!"

"Awesome group of professional people! Ikembe showed up early to set up for my private party. As dinner was being served they played at an appropriate volume so people could have dinner conversation The lead singer was engaging and entertaining to the crowd. When I asked their leader yo change to some dance music, they were politeand accommodating. "

"Candy & the Sound were our absolutely brilliant wedding band. The dancefloor was full from start to finish, they put up with repeated requests of 'one more song', and they did the most amazing rendition of our first dance. Plus we got a fun little video afterwards, a complete surprise and such a lovely thing to watch after the wedding! Thank you xxx"

"Well what can be said about W!RED. I have never been to any other band that can have a dance floor packed after the first note has been played."

"I recently booked Naked Stereo to perform at my 60th Birthday Party. I myself play in a band and knew the night would be in good hands. They are easy to work with, flexible with running times and made the music right for the age range of guests I had at my party. Thank you. "

"Funk’N’Soul performed at a wedding celebration held at Maisemore Gloucestershire on 28th August. The two hour set and DJ kept everyone on the dance floor, which was exactly what was wanted!! Awesome night!"
