Likewise

Five young musicians from across the UK, united by one unstoppable passion: making people move. We are Likewise, an Edinburgh-based funk and soul collective bringing vintage grooves and modern energy to Scotland's live music scene. Though we've only recently come together as Likewise, our musical roots run deep. We've played together in various formations for years, perfecting our craft through late-night jam sessions, gigs, and countless hours lost in the pocket. Now, as a five-piece powerhouse featuring tenor sax, keys, drums, bass, guitar, and vocals, we're ready to bring our fresh sound to the stages that matter most – your celebrations. Our lineup isn't just tight; it runs in our veins. We blend the silky smooth sound of classic soul to the raw, irresistible energy of funk seamlessly, with plenty of disco sparkle thrown in for a bit of fun. We draw inspiration from the greats – think Earth, Wind & Fire, Stevie Wonder, Kool & The Gang, and Tower of Power – but we don't just recreate their genius. We're a living, breathing celebration of groove, filtered through our own youthful perspective and delivered with the kind of energy that only comes from musicians who genuinely love what they do. Weddings are where we truly come alive. There's something magical about a room full of people celebrating love, and we believe the music should match that magic. Whether it's getting your guests on their feet for the first dance, keeping the party rolling through the evening, or delivering that perfect moment when everyone – from your university pals to your gran – is singing along, we know how to read a room and keep the energy exactly where it needs to be. We work closely with couples to understand their vision, taking requests, tailoring set-lists, and ensuring the musical journey of your evening unfolds exactly as you've imagined. Our repertoire spans decades of the finest funk, soul, and disco, from timeless classics to contemporary favourites reimagined with our signature groove. Based in Edinburgh but available across Scotland and beyond, we bring professional polish with genuine personality. Yes, we're all students, but don't let that fool you – we've put in the hours, and we deliver performances that punch well above our years. At the heart of Likewise is a simple philosophy: life is better when you're dancing. The passion and beauty you're celebrating on your wedding day deserves a soundtrack that matches that energy – music that makes your soul sing, your feet move, and your heart soar. Get in touch today, and let's create an unforgettable evening together. Because when the groove is right, likewise, everything else falls into place.
