Bring Summer Events to Life with Soul Bands

Wednesday, April 20th, 2011

The organisation of outdoor events is an important part of making the most of the British summertime, whether you are optimistic and expecting the sun to shine on your party or a little less positive and definitely hiring a marquee, just in case of inclement weather.

Rain or shine, there are always occasions for celebration. This summer, you may be hosting a family gathering or reunion, or throwing a seventy fifth birthday celebration, but whatever the party, you may be considering your options in terms of function bands and DJs to provide the entertainment for your guests.

At London Soul, we aim to provide professional and enthralling performances, with set lists containing hits from rock bands such as Bon Jovi and soul bands such as The Blues Brothers. We consider no venue or audience too small or too large and that our set lists contain something for everybody. We have made toes tap overseas and won acclaim for the entertainment we provide. Function bands are more likely to keep your guests amused, with the live quality setting a mood. Even those who are not inclined to get up and dance can enjoy watching us perform, infinitely preferable to a lifeless DJ in a booth in the corner.

We can alter our set list, so if your or your guests preference leans more towards jazz bands than soul bands, for example, we can provide a different set of hits from our expansive repertoire, crammed with classics from four genres spanning the last thirty years.

Stunning Soul bands

Saturday, January 22nd, 2011

The greatest soul bands of all time captured something special in their music, lyrics and delivery which were different from other live bands. They forge that special connection to an audience which can neither be faked nor bought. Soul power and life force are common to legendary performers such as Sam n Dave, Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, the Temptations and Smoky Robinson.

London Soul follow in the footsteps of these soul bands pioneers, and like all great live bands, manage to add their own subtle and stylish twists to live interpretations of classic tunes, such as Hard to Handle, I Feel Good, Knock on Wood and Midnight Hour. Soul bands such as London Soul are perfect for parties, celebrations and weddings, because they add a touch of glamour, style and passion to any occasion. Their performances affect crowds in a profound manner, meaning that even guests who have been previously reluctant to dance will find themselves compelled to get straight onto the dance floor.

Good soul bands also know how to guide a crowd through the evening, interspersing high energy tunes with slow jams and ballads at the most fitting moments. This type of intuitive expertise comes from years of live experience and an innate ability to predict which tunes will connect most powerfully with particular audiences.

London Soul are able to count themselves amongst the elite group of bona fide soul bands on the live performance circuit today, and can adapt their performances and set-list to suit any audience and occasion.

Heart and Soul of Rock and Roll

Wednesday, December 15th, 2010

London Soul reaches the parts that other party bands cannot reach because they really put all of their heart and soul into their stunning live performances. Many live bands simply think it is enough to turn up at a venue, perform the agreed set competently and then collect their cash at the end of the night, regardless of whether a single person has been moved enough to step on the dance floor. There is nothing more embarrassing than having booked a party band who simply do not have it, lacking soul, rock and roll or anything else.

Real artists want to deliver each and every time. The need to connect with their audiences is a part of the fabric of their being. Emotional connection through powerful music and stunning vocals leads to physical connection. The desire to get up and dance, chat, bond, laugh and express yourself in the company of friends, family and even relative strangers. Party bands such as London Soul have this special ability in spades. Their performances are tight, precise and professional but they have that essential something extra, that true soul power which allows them to connect with any audience.

London Soul have a reputation as being a truly outstanding band, and so anyone searching for live bands to perform at a function or party, then there is no excuse not to contact them. You and your guests will be glad you did.
