Treat Your Party Guests

Friday, October 22nd, 2010

If you are organising a party and want to give your guests a really extra special treat then a great option is to book a party band to blast out some top live music. People of all ages love live music so live bands are the best choice to create a unique and memorable experience which your guests will love. The spontaneity and energy that comes from a bands live performance is something which just cannot be matched by the recorded music sets of a DJ.

Party bands always go down really well at any function or event as they play popular, well known songs which people always like to hear. This means that hiring a party band guarantees that your guests will enjoy singing and dancing along to the music whether they are into pop, soul, rock, or swing. Most live bands will also be happy to complement their sets with requests and play with an enthusiasm that will keep everybody thoroughly entertained all through the evening. To ensure your guests enjoy an absolutely awesome night of musical entertainment, you really cannot beat a live party band.

We here at London Soul are a 12 piece soul, rock and pop band who are available for events and functions nationwide as well as overseas. With backing singers and a full brass section, we can provide your event with the type of live music experience that has helped make us one of the UKs most well respected party bands.

Party Music for Party People

Friday, October 15th, 2010

When arranging a large party to celebrate an important anniversary or birthday, you will have to make decisions concerning everything from the style of food being served to the theme of the decorations. Of course, you will want to do whatever you can to make the event extra special so the type of musical entertainment you choose will be possibly the most important decision you make. To ensure that your party is a remembered for the right reasons, it may be a good idea to look into hiring a party band. Of course, there is always the cheaper option of hiring a professional DJ or simply playing pre recorded music for the evening.

However, the creation of a good atmosphere is integral to the successful of any event and pre recorded music does little to add any fresh energy to a party. Live music on the other hand is a much more effective way to generate a party atmosphere. Good live bands playing infectious music are guaranteed to get people singing along and dancing to the beat. Really good party bands playing great live music add that extra special touch to any function and can ensure that a celebration is truly memorable.

Naturally, there are many good quality live bands available for hire in the UK. However, there are few other party bands that can create the same kind of magic that we at London Soul can deliver with our 12 piece band, female backing singers and full brass section. Check us out.

DJ or Live Band for Your Wedding Reception?

Sunday, October 10th, 2010

One of the most important elements of a successful wedding reception is the musical entertainment. For many newlyweds, this normally comes down to a straight choice between the pre recorded music played by a professional DJ and the live music provided by hired wedding bands. Thankfully, DJs have come a long way since the cheesy disco lights and mobile discos of yesteryear. However, even the most enthusiastic and accomplished DJ just cannot create the same kind of atmosphere that comes from talented live bands who can make music.

Although generally more expensive to hire than an individual DJ, the extra money spent on live bands can provide extra benefit. Whereas a DJ will typically only start playing in the evening, most wedding bands can start much earlier and play different sets at different times of the day. While guests are enjoying their food, the band can play soft, low tempo music to encourage people to relax and break the ice. Later, with the speeches and formalities over, they can pick up the pace and get everybody loosened up with a few well known singalongs. Then, after a break, the band can really let rip and get the party going properly.

We here at London Soul are a 12 piece soul, rock and pop function band who can be hired for all events in the UK and abroad. With female backing singers and a full brass section, we guarantee that your wedding reception will be a musical feast for everyone.

Why Live Music is Best

Sunday, October 3rd, 2010

Are you looking for entertainment to help an upcoming party or event be a success? Whether you need to entertain guests at a wedding reception or corporate function, finding exactly the right kind of act or artists is not always that straightforward. However, as nearly everyone loves the excitement of listening to live music, hiring a function band can be a great option.

Listening to live music is always a treat so a decent function band has the power to turn a mediocre function into a party to remember. Good quality function bands playing popular live music are a fantastic way to enliven any event and galvanise guests into having a great time. Live music offers a unique and sometimes spontaneous experience which cannot be matched by the pre recorded music offered by mobile discos and DJs. Experienced live bands will set just the right tempo for an event and will also frequently be able to accommodate requests from guests. Musicians in live bands really enjoy what they do and want their listeners to enjoy themselves so they will ensure that their set list is likely to please your particular guests in order to guarantee that your event is enjoyed by all.

For a truly unique live function band experience, consider us here at London Soul. We are a 12 piece soul, rock and pop band who are available for hire all around the UK or overseas. With female backing singers and a full brass section, function bands really don’t come any better.

What is it that makes the best function bands so popular?

Monday, August 16th, 2010

Those who book the best function bands know that they and their guests are always guaranteed an evening of sheer brilliance. What is it about these more popular live bands that distinguishes them from their less successful rivals?

Certainly talent and skill are essential prerequisites, both in terms of musical ability and also in being able to work together as a coherent unit. This, however, does not explain why many otherwise talented bands fail to make an impression on a crowd.

Perhaps one of the key reasons for success lies in the fact that many of the more popular bands will also try to tailor their act to the tastes of the audience. This can either be planned in advance through discussions with the party hosts, or can be picked up on throughout the evening by gauging the reactions of the party guests to specific tracks. It is certainly true that, at the very least, the best live bands will interact with their audience and spontaneously develop a positive rapport.

There is one final ingredient that is hard to quantify but simple to recognise when one sees and hears it: charisma. The best live bands are asked back again and again because people simply love them.

At London Soul our 12 piece soul outfit is indeed one of those live bands that people simply love; and we in turn regard each of our engagements as a privileged opportunity to get to know a new audience and to make sure they leave the function happy.
