Debra hired Duo Soul for a Wedding (available in London)
"The entire group of musicians really made the evening celebrations go with a BANG ! From the background tunes during the meal, their support with the speeches, guidance with the set change and then the fabulous rendition of the first dance, right to the very last floor banging end of the night they created the perfect party atmosphere. I cannot fault their professionalism, kindness and the fun Alessandro added to both the planning process and to the Wedding Day itself. Jonathan's voice was true to the videos we had seen and all of the guests couldn't stop talking about them the following day. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a great Mowtown Band with an excellent DJ to fill the gaps!"
