David Sprason21 Mar 2022

Booked for Private party

Ministry of Soul are outstanding musicians and provided fantastic entertainment. They had everybody on the floor dancing to some great tunes, a big thanks to the band for the special number ‘Needle in a Haystack’ just brilliant. I would highly recommend them for any setting. Once again thanks Lyndsay and all of the band.

Amy Clayton28 Aug 2021

Booked for Birthday party

Fabulous sound, very polite, very tight musicians. Requested specific formats of 2 songs for dance purposes and this was not achieved however.

Paul hunt21 Jun 2021

Booked for Anniversary

They were wonderful, arrived in plenty of time despite a long drive, played absolutely perfect music for the occasion and couldn’t be more accommodating and laid back. They were such a hit with everyone, beautiful voice and very cool guitar. Highly recommend them

Chad Cookney22 Aug 2019

Booked for Corporate Function

We were fortunate to book The Groovy Cats for our Summer Corporate Event. From start to finish ultimate professionals and really nice people. The event was a great success to which the great music, sense of humour from the band members all contributed. Would recommend and book again - wait...we have booked again for our Christmas Event - Well done guys - a real pleasure - Chad

Booked for Other Event

"Event - Masonic Ladies Night Trevor and the boys were quite simply - fantastic. With a wide spectrum of ages, they were able to read the crowd and play accordingly. Very accommodating, as I'm a bit fussy! Can't recommend enough."

John24 Dec 2018

Booked for Celebration

Paul n Jennie were great at what they do best and kept us entertained. Just for future reference I would've suggested they were more interactive with the audience and had the audience more involved.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.

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.
