Latest reviews of our Soul & Motown Bands in Hackney

Kane Matthews Band
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"Kane and the band were immense. They had everyone on the dance floor and we had so many comments about how great they were. We felt incredibly lucky to have them at our wedding and they were one of the first suppliers we booked. The communication from Kane is excellent, always quick to respond and very accommodating. He is an incredibly charismatic and talented performer and a top man to chat to. He and the band are super tight, bringing some excellent music and groove to our evening. Their musicianship is exceptional. We’re already talking about what excuse we could use to throw another party just to have them play again. Book them, I guarantee you won’t regret it. "

The Mirrors
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"We saw this dynamic duo perform at a summer wedding and we were so wowed by their energy and talent that we booked them for our anniversary/birthday celebrations. Filippo and Azu delivered a 2 hour set of classic songs with such fun, panache and sentimentality; we were dancing, singing and taking a trip down memory lane with the songs that marked the decades and our milestones. Azu's vocal range is amazing and Filippo is a masterblaster on his guitar! They are polite, affable, very easy to communicate with and they truly put heart and soul into their fantabulous performances. Book this thrilling class act for your event if you enjoy their genre of songs. This accomplished duo will effortlessly jazz up celebrations in a cosy private setting or pull in the crowd for a big event. Whichever it is, they are guaranteed to make forever memories for you & your guests. We know because we've enjoyed their spectacular performances twice! The rapport with their audiences is heartwarmingly real. Thank you for everything. It was a totally stress free booking and absolutely worth it."

FAQs about hiring Soul & Motown Bands in Hackney

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

Can any soul & motown band play my favourite song?

Professional soul & motown bands will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that soul & motown bands may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the soul & motown band's song list on their Encore profile.

How much time do soul & motown bands take to set up?

Your soul & motown band will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the soul & motown band prior to their arrival.

My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?

PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our soul & motown bands are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our soul & motown bands will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
