Testimonials:
Wow wow wow wow wow! What a band! We hired Soul Avenue Band for our wedding reception and they were absolutely amazing! They played some fantastic songs that were great for all generations. I do not think the dance floor was empty once for the whole time they played. Communication with the band prior to the event was brilliant. Emails were answered within a day, and questions (no matter how small) were answered in detail. The band even learnt a song for our first dance, which was so thoughtful of them and so kind – Thank you! Every single guest to our wedding has said to me how great they thought the band were, and I could not agree more. Do not hesitate to hire these guys, they are AMAZING. Thank you all for making my wedding so special – Oscar – Wedding, Bath
We held an event for our employer awards, where Soul Avenue Band played at the end of the awards ceremony. The 10 piece soul band were a great hit with everyone of all ages, both men and women. It’s unusual for a dance floor to be full all night – people really enjoyed themselves. The sound was amazing and the singers were stunning. An all-round fabulous band who I would recommend for any occasion. Versatile, accommodating, talented people, creating amazing entertainment. So great I have booked them for my wedding! – April – Awards Night, The Roundhouse, Derby
The band played two sets of funky soul and disco classics for my party. Loved the blend of vocals, some really nice harmonies in there and the band are great. Also a nice, friendly group of people, very accommodating and reliable, kept in touch promptly right from initial enquiry. Everyone enjoyed it so a big thank you and hope to see you again soon! – Julie – Birthday Party, Burton upon Trent
