From start to finish the Rock ‘n’ Soulers have been absolutely fantastic. They reached out with a more than reasonable quote for a full day at our wedding, starting with an acoustic set and finishing off with live sets. The acoustic set was more than we could have imagined. They played music that was to ours and the guests tastes and set the mood for the rest of the day. We expected one person playing a guitar but were greeted with a 3 piece band which was amazing. Moving on to the night - all I can say is wow. Our dance floor was full all night as they played an amazing set list that was tailored to our taste. They asked us which songs to include and which ones to leave off. Everyone we spoke to after the wedding could not stop talking about the band. The music really made our wedding the best it could be and would couldn’t thank the Rock ‘n’ Soulers enough. Highly recommend!

What a wedding band! From start to finish the dance floor was packed, the energy was constantly high and everyone had a ball. The Dj service after the band's sets was a mega added bonus too - they take requests and was a lifesaver having an all-in-one band to Dj set up! The guys are lovely too - do not hesitate to book them if you want an actually GREAT rock n roll band doing all the classics at your wedding - I promise you won't regret it. All our guests commented how great they were. My husband and I will certainly be at your future Gigs in Manchester and recommending you far and wide - nice one lads!!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Energy, songs, the look of the stage, the performance and the talent of our experienced musicians!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Between us, we've played Glastonbury, Royal Albert Hall, appeared on American TV and toured Europe, Asia and USA!

Do you have different line-up options?

No. The Epic 4-piece is our line-up and our sound as seen on our video reels. We aren't a "roster" band where we collect random musicians to make up the numbers.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

Timings on the day can always vary slightly but we ensure that we will be helpful, flexible and professional to allow things to run as smoothly as possible.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes! DJ services in-between sets and after the band has finished are absolutely free of charge.

How much time do you need to set up?

We would like 90 minutes of set-up time to ensure the lighting and sound is perfect before we start to rock out!

Can you roam around while you perform?

No. That's not something we offer. We are stationed on our stage :)

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Of course! We have our set list in a vague order of what flows best on the night (from vast experience) but we will play anything from our setlist and even consider a few requests!

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Yes. Everything is included.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If it's a wedding, we will always include learning your first dance for free. We like to add a few requests too so get them in with plenty of notice and we will do our best! Anything we cannot play will be taken care of at the DJ decks!
