A soul band is a musical ensemble that plays well-known soul and motown tunes for occasions like weddings, corporate events, and private parties. To create the right mood, the band plays a variety of soul songs, including both classic and modern hits. They typically have between three and five performers. A huge band, however, may have more than 10 people in it, with a potent lead singer. Drums, guitars, keyboards, percussion, and occasionally a horn or string section round out a soul band's instruments.

I want to hire a motown soul band in Bristol. How much is that?

The price range for a soul band for hire in Bristol is £800 to £2,700. This price is usually based on the band lineup, the length of the performance, the travel time, and other extra services.

When will a soul band in Bristol start its performance?

In most cases, a soul band in Bristol can start their performance at the beginning of the event to create a lively and fun atmosphere. The band can perform during the drink reception too. Regardless of the time, the band must ensure to engage the audience in a high-energy show when they are most likely to dance. You should expect the band to play at the beginning of the event and when your guest can dance without a distraction. You may also want to get more information from your preferred supplier and also discuss if you have a particular time in mind that you want them to play.

Fantastic band. All our guests loved them and their music. Very charismatic and friendly. Great choice for a wedding band, they had everyone up and dancing.

"Phoebe and Studio 33 were absolutely phenomenal! They played for 3 hours ( with 3 short breaks) and the dance floor was packed the whole of the time they were on. At times there wasn't anyone sitting down as everyone was up boogieing, including the over 70s present complete with arthritic knees and hips! They were very slick and had oodles of infectious energy and enthusiasm . Phoebe has an amazing voice and everyone in the…

I recently hired The Breakfast Club for a corporate conference and I must say I am overly pleased with the outcome of the evening! The guys arrived ahead of time to ensure they were set up and ready to go (fitting around our other activities of the evening). Professional, easy to arrange, great communication, brilliant song choices and a fantastic performance! Absolute pleasure :)
