The most common booking is a soloist with backing tracks, which delivers a near-full-band sound at a smaller budget, but many performers also work as a duo with a pianist or guitarist, or front their own band for events wanting a fuller live sound.
Local soul vocalists tend to split between classic soul (Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye) and modern soul and R&B (Adele, Sam Smith, John Legend, Joss Stone). Most maintain published setlists on their profiles, and the majority will learn one or two specific requests for a wedding or milestone event without an extra fee, provided there is reasonable notice.
Rates for soul vocalists in Durham typically run from £120 for a soloist with backing tracks at a local event up to £1,150+ for an established performer travelling with a band, with the average sitting around £380. The main cost variables are line-up (solo, duo or band), set length, travel distance and whether a PA is provided by the venue.

Shorrel Jade
"Shorrel played a very special part at our wedding that has created lasting memories and impressions on us and our wedding party for a lifetime. We had Shorrel sing beautiful music during the ceremony and at the reception. I’m surprised her voice and talent aren’t on TV. She’s a fantastic singer and lovely person and she brings such a lovely vibe too. I’d recommend Shorrel to anyone considering her for functions and weddings - you won’t be disappointed. Beautiful inside and out and a pleasure working with her and keeping in touch since. Very reliable and dependable. Thank you so so much - we’re forever grateful xxx"
Sammie
"We cannot even begin to thank you enough for coming to sing for us. As soon as you started singing At Last, I was a goner🥲 it was absolutely perfect!
Thank you so much for letting me play piano with you, I had a blast!"
Collectives Gospel Choir
"If you’re thinking about booking Collectives Gospel Choir then book without hesitation! They were beyond perfect adding something truly unique to our wedding day. They made a lasting impression with my Dad even improvising and adding “Oh Happy Days” into his wedding speech. My only regret is that we didn’t have them for longer. I could have stood and listened to them all day long. The perfect touch. Thank you so much guys and I hope we get the pleasure of being in the audience again (this time for a little longer) Lots of love Leonie and George x"
Shirley Bassey Tribute Show
"It was back to the tributes next with Dame Shirley Bassey being portrayed fabulously, in my view, by Carolynn May. Here we heard a top notch voice and the chosen songs were beautifully delivered. All in all, Ms May presents a whole package. I can see this fine artiste working the cruise ship cabaret scene and/or the better-quality hotel scene.
Quote from Email sent from "Bournville Gardens Retirement Village" Birmingham Cathryn Boffey (Extracare)
Carolynn May was a fantastic. The residents loved her brilliant show, which was just like watching the real Shirley Bassey. I think the standing ovation at the end of the evening said it all!!
The residents have not stopped talking about her. Will definitely be having her back again. Thank You Carolynn.
Quote from Lancashire Federation of Entertainment Secretaries :
"CAROLYNN MAY. To open the show, we presented this charming lady, who is being hailed as one of the best entertainers on the circuit with her ability to give her audience a complete professional show. We add our accolade (Artiste of the Year) to her collection which includes Manchester, Huddersfield, and Tameside and many more…."
