Booked for Wedding

We were absolutely blown away by Groove Collider. Every guest without exception commented on how fantastic the band were. Excellent playlist, perfect vocals, amazing sound and extremely engaging. They made a perfect atmosphere for the party after our wedding. Extremely easy to deal with and book. Effortless set up, and very good value for money. The band had everyone on the dance floor and were happy to give a few encore numbers at the end because our guests wanted more. Highly recommended for any event where you want to let your hair down and have a great night. Thanks to Mark and the band, we would definitely book again!

Booked for Birthday party

This band is amazing - have to mention the lead singer- just off the scale- and all of the band were the very best you could ask for. I’m trying to find an excuse to host another party so I can book them again!!

Booked for Birthday party

Jess and the Red Hot rags were amazing. Having planned an small private event for my Father in Law that had to be postponed due to Covid we were delighted to reorganise an outdoor, social distancing event for today. Red Hot Rags played wonderful music and made a man whose health is rapidly fading very very Happy. I can't thank them enough for all they have done and would recommend them to anyone.Thank you so much.

Booked for Wedding

Halos came to play at our wedding and they were absolutely INCREDIBLE! We really just can't recommend them enough - they totally brought the party for the evening. Both myself and my husband as well as all of our guests had an absolutely incredible time - our guests have talked about it as one of their favourite parts of the day. They were so flexible with their set list and the DJ was just perfect on the evening, playing lots of requests to keep our guests happy. The lead vocalist has to have a shout out - what a voice!! Thanks so much to the Halos for being part of our day and being utterly, utterly brilliant - everyone should book this band!

Booked for Birthday party

"From the start LeFunk! were responsive, respectful and very organised so I knew exactly where I stood and it made organising the event really easy, which I really appreciated. At the party the band were helpful and generous in supplying the equipment we needed. They were the perfect band for our event. The music was fantastic. They are excellent musicians. Everyone was so impressed with the singer and lots of people asked about how I booked the band etc. The music they performed was in keeping with our theme, taste and requests. They made it a great event. We really enjoyed dancing to them. Thanks LeFunk!"

How many team members are there in a soul band?

A soul band in Kent can have team members between 3 to 10. The most common band lineup is the 4-piece band though. Some soul bands also have solo artists. Soul bands don't have a general number of team members, so you may have to ask your preferred musicians to know how many members will perform at your event. Also, you can check the number of members performing at your event when you click on the band’s profile.

What equipment will a band provide?

The soul band in Kent will provide the equipment they will use at the event. Some of the equipment includes a PA system, microphone, lighting, musical instruments like the guitar, drums, and many more. They will only provide the necessary equipment that they will need for their performance, and this can vary based on the number of band members. Feel free to check what equipment bands provide by clicking on their services on Poptop’s website.
