Booked for Wedding

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. They arrived early and set up easily, very nice guys and easy to chat to. Played our choice of a first dance song which they played very well. We will be watching out for them playing elsewhere and we would highly recommend them to anyone wanting some great live music.

Booked for Corporate Function

Alicia was awesome. She has a great voice, and a lovely personality which everyone warmed to. Her repertoire was really good and she had everyone up and dancing from the very first number. Her communication pre-event was very good and she turned up promptly on the night and was professional throughout. Would strongly recommend her to anyone planning an event for a broad age range of people, with a particular emphasis on dance music and classic disco.

Booked for Anniversary

Tom responded quickly once I had made the initial enquiry on Poptop. I was able to explain what I had in mind for the evening and Tom was flexible and able to accommodate my request. The quality of music was outstanding with a variety of songs and we were able request any songs we would like to hear. We were really pleased with the Tom and Isaac and they made our evening memorable and even more special.

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.

"This Band is excellent, vocals and musicians exceptional. Everyone at our wedding reception commented on how fantastic the band was. They made the party the dance floor was full. When I had an opportunity to talk to the band members they were really super cool guys. If anyone needs a band for a wedding, do not hesitate to book these guys they were genuinely amazing!"

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to hire a soul band in the UK?

The cost of hiring a soul band in the UK is usually determined by the duration of the performance, the travel distance, and other extra services. On Poptop, a UK soul band for hire costs between £800 and £2,700. Visit Poptop's website to get the price for a soul band performance in the UK. You can request a quick price by providing information about your events, such as the date, time, and location.

What is the duration of a soul band performance?

Soul motown bands often play a 60-minute set followed by a 15-minute break. However, this time is flexible because the band has the option to go longer if that would be to your liking. Some soul bands in the UK perform two sets of 45 or 60 minutes separately. On their profile pages, our suppliers' service duration is available, and they provide flexible hours. The band will work with you to customise the performance's length to your occasion, whether you like a lengthy or brief performance.
