“We just wanted to say how much we appreciated all your hard work to make the music at our wedding so fantastic, and the dance floor one of the best we’ve ever seen with all of our friends and family! In our guest book, on advice cards and in person, so many people have commented on how much they loved the band and the great atmosphere you created. You played all the songs we wished for and we were so impressed by the talents of all the musicians in the band and how they engaged with all of our guests.
We didn’t want the music to end (you may have guessed by our a cappella attempts!)
Please pass on a big thank you to the rest of the band. We will highly recommend you and the band to friends and family in the future.
Thank you so much.”

The SoulTown-Funk Band has performed at many renowned venues in London and beyond - including Blenheim Palace, Emirates Stadium, Madame Tussauds, The London Science Museum, Bush Hall, The Savoy, The Ritz, The Hilton, as well as 100's of smaller wedding venues across the country.
The most popular line up is the 7pc, which is the smallest line up featuring the the perfect combination of male & female vocals, guitar, bass, drums, keyboards and saxophone. Each of the singers are at the top of their game and know exactly how to get your guests off their seats and onto the dance floor! Having a male and female vocalist creates a great dynamic on stage, and allows the band to perform the widest variety of genres. If live horns are important to you, we highly recommend adding the trumpet. There is nothing quite like the sound of a live horn section for that full, fat, funk sound, and having 2 horns working in combination allows the band to play more of the brass heavy numbers where more than one brass member is essential. For a more tropical edge, why not add some percussion? Bongos and congas are a staple of disco and house music, but percussion is rarely seen on stage these days. So having a live bongo/ conga player is sure to please your guests, and this gives the band a more authentic disco sound and flavour. For those looking for the ultimate line up, the band can complete their line up with an additional female vocalist. Having 3 vocalists allows the band to create luscious vocal harmonies, aswell as perform choreography on stage and really work the dance floor!
You can also choose extra acoustic performances as a duo or trio in addition to the full band if required. This is a very popular option during the wedding ceremony, drinks reception, or dinner before the party really begins!
The band also boasts a range of optional extras such as wireless microphone for speeches, CD decks & turntables if you are hiring a DJ, star cloth backdrop and coloured uplighting around the room - all at preferential rates for customers who book the band (please ask for details).
If you are looking for the ultimate Funk, Soul wedding band or entertainment for your private party or corporate event, you are guaranteed a spectacular performance that you and your guests will never forget.
