Second City Soul were absolutely brilliant at our wedding this year, we're both so glad we booked them. They were all hugely talented, energetic, enthusiastic and clearly very experienced musicians. All of our guests have been raving about their performance, which had something for everyone - although we could have guessed this from how many were on the dance floor all night! They were also great to communicate with and incredibly accommodating both during the build up and on the day. We couldn't recommend them more.
“Second city soul are SUPERB! We booked them for our wedding after reading reviews on their website and then seeing them perform at The Jam House in Birmingham. We wanted a band that had a great play list, had phenomenal voices and could keep everyone dancing all night! We got this and more!!! We all had the most amazing time and EVERYONE was on the dancefloor! The feedback from all our friends and family is a true testimony to how fantastic they are! We are literally thrilled that we booked them and can’t recommend them highly enough. Love Laura and Ged x”
