Booked for Private party

Fantastic in every way. So easy to work with before the event and then on the night it was just so fun. They are able to create a great atmosphere and encourage everyone to participate or enjoy watching. Great musicians and very flexible.

Booked for Corporate Function

It was an absolute pleasure to have Soul Acoustic at our recent event! Their performance was fabulous and we received lots of positive & lovely feedback from our guest about the band! They certainly made our event a huge success and we would definitely have them back for any future events we hold! Joe was so helpful leading up to the event with our requests and helped to make the organisation and logistics very stress free! Would highly recommend!

The band was very professional and everyone really enjoyed their music. They had everyone up dancing and was happy to take any requests from people. Made the night really enjoyable!

Booked for Wedding

Annelise was the perfect accompaniment to our wedding day. She was polite and respectful and could always be heard but not overpowering. Just what we needed for the afternoon tea. Annelise also didn't mind taking the time to learn a new song for us with her own spin on it for our first dance. I would recommend her to anyone , anytime of day. Thank you and good luck with future bookings.

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.
