Soul City

Soul City was INCREDIBLE! We couldn't have asked for a more fantastic wedding band. Everyone was out dancing the minute they started playing, and stayed on the dance floor all night long! They made our wedding so much fun!! Natalie was very easy to work with and made the planning so seamless. She was also an incredible emcee for the night and worked with us to make sure that everything was happening at the right time and in the riht way. They communicated well with us, worked with us to pick the songs/kind of music we wanted, and learned a few new songs specific for us. They are very skilled musicians, and they brought such great energy and enthusiasm! They were very nice to us, always professional, and and really did so much to help make our day perfect. We were so lucky to be able to have Soul City as the band for our wedding and we would 100% have them again! Thank you!

Stop looking at other wedding bands...now. Just stop. Soul City is simply the best. Natalie and the team were perfect to work with and made us feel super prepared leading up to the big day. The music was absolutely outstanding and the dance floor was on fire. Instead of referring to the day as our wedding, most of our friends and family have been referring to the day as "the Soul City Concert." :) The band went out of their way to accommodate our special requests and went with the flow with last minute schedule changes. Highly recommend Soul City!!!

Wow! Soul City did an exceptional job playing our wedding. The party was rocking all night. We got so many compliments from our guests, none bigger than packing the dance floor to the last song! ---------- We knew the music was going to be fantastic, but Natalie and Tucker are so professional and accommodating too. They worked with my brother (the best man), who sang our first dance song, as well as my dad, who traditionally sings at every family wedding. Natalie was a great emcee too. It was apparent to us how much they enjoyed themselves too. They really love what they do, and they're great at it!

Fantastic band - super high energy - amazing horns - they kept us dancing all night. And they were even polite and welcoming to Uncle Al when he joined in! Natalie was great to deal with very efficient and friendly - everyone loved the music. Will def use only Soul City for any future family weddings!!!

Natalie was amazing , easy to communicate with and made things extremely easy. This band was everything we could have ever dreamed of. We could have had our wedding anywhere and it would have still been great cause they were that good, literally made our wedding day! They are so interactive with the crowd, we had a blast and I cannot thank them enough!

There are no words to describe how incredible Soul City is. Natalie and Tucker went above and beyond to make our day perfect. They’ve been so helpful since the day we hired them, learned very specific songs (and CRUSHED them) and had the whole party on the dance floor all night. Hiring this crew was hands down the best wedding decision we could have possibly made. I want to do it again just to see them perform!!!!!! WE LOVE SOUL CITY!!!

Soul City was highly recommended. We passed the info along to our daughter and future son-in-law. They were immediately impressed and couldn't say enough about the professionalism of working with them. And, then - the wedding... fantastic!! The guests are still talking about Soul City - 'like being at a concert', 'just can't stop dancing'. Soul City will not disappoint.

I can’t say enough about how absolutely incredible the band was. From managing the sound perfectly during the ceremony, to the high energy grand entrance, the hora and the music they played all night… everything was amazing. It was so so fun watching you them perform, they clearly LOVE what they do. They perfectly executed on my vision for the evening and I can’t thank them enough for being part of our special day.

Soul City brought the ENERGY to our wedding night! They had our guests up and dancing throughout the night. Natalie is so sweet and extremely organized. She communicated with us throughout the planning process. We spoke with her a few days before the wedding to confirm timelines and our must play songs (such an anxiety reliever), and she made sure everything ran smoothly the day of the wedding. We received such great feedback from our guests. My 90 year old grandmother said that she wanted them to play at her next wedding :D Thank you Soul City. We can't wait to see you play again!

Soul City was one of our favorite parts of our wedding. Not only was the band a pleasure to work with, they really made our night perfect. The band had everyone on the dance floor the whole night and the floor was shaking. People are still talking to us about our band and we get it, we can't stop talking about it either. We're so excited we picked Soul City for our wedding night and hope to continue to see them live because they are too good! Any couple would be lucky to have Soul City perform at their wedding!

SoulCity is everything you could want in a wedding band: professional, easy to work with and an incredibly talented group. Throughout the entire process, Natalie and team were on top of everything and were a pleasure to work with. SoulCity provided their recommendations / guidance where we asked for it, yet they were flexible enough to adjust on the fly to a few last minute changes. It is clear they are professionals and they do everything possible to take the pressure off of the wedding couple. To me, the band at weddings makes the party. SoulCity plays music that gets people dancing at every age level - friends, parents, grandparents, young kids. Multiple times during our wedding, not one person was sitting in their seat. Everyone was out on the dance floor, dancing the night away. In addition to that, their band members love to get off stage and involve the crowd. That’s all you can ask for in a wedding band.

As a musician myself, I knew I wanted to have Soul City as my wedding band before I even met my husband! Natalie is so professional, responsive, and supportive in every way! Soul City does not miss a beat, from the planning stages to the night of. All details will be covered and you can truly relax and leave everything up to them. Our guests had an amazing time and can't stop talking about the music. Having the full horn section was amazing and truly a dream come true for a fellow trumpet player. If you're thinking about a band vs DJ, do yourself a favor and include band/live music in at least some part of your wedding day (and be sure to book Soul City EARLY) - you will not regret it!

Our experience with Soul City was absolutely incredible! Every aspect of working with them was great. During the lead up, Natalie was incredibly easy to work with. Responses to my emails always came quickly, and you could tell she was invested in making planning as stress-free as possible. At the wedding, I was able to hang out with the band for a little while during the dinner break, and it was honestly one of my favorite parts of the day. They are all just so fun to be around. Even before they started playing, they were a complete joy to have at the wedding. But that increased ten-fold once they took the stage. Simply put, they are phenomenal! They are all so talented, and their energy is infectious. Their versatility as musicians is crazy, every genre was performed flawlessly. The set list was perfect, and kept everyone from the teenagers to the grandparents on the dance floor the entire night. They even come with their own choreography, so the less mobile guests got to enjoy quite the show! The band was easily the most talked about part of the wedding, and nobody had anything less than a glowing review. We are beyond thrilled with our experience, and so grateful to everyone at Soul City for helping make our wedding what it was.

What a great band! My daughter and her husband chose them for their wedding and what a great choice! They got everyone up and dancing and having a great time. Our guests all told us it was the best band they ever heard at a wedding! I also want to acknowledge how kind they were when the wedding had to be postponed due to the Pandemic. They switched dates with no issues and no upcharges. They were a joy to work with and so fun to listen to!

You really should consider your search over. I cannot rave enough about Natalie and the entire Soul City family. Having a band was at the top of my wish list when I started wedding planning. However, through the rollercoaster months of 2020, we did not have an opportunity to preview bands due to COVID. While it may have seemed like a risk, I never doubted that Soul City would be anything but amazing. Natalie was patient and helpful as so many things remained unknown – especially when we had an unexpected venue change five months before our wedding. Getting to hear them in person a few weeks in advance really made us even more excited. I kept telling my guests, “just wait until you hear the band!” As we planned the final details, we easily were able to incorporate personal touches while utilizing the knowledge Soul City brings to the table. Every detail, from the flawless ceremony sound to the high-energy playlist, helped make our day perfect. They truly know how to get people dancing and our guests keep telling me weeks later how incredible the band was!

Soul City was EXACTLY the type of band we were looking for. So easy to work with leading up to the wedding (Natalie is a true professional!) and very customizable in terms of ceremony, cocktail hour, reception set up. They learned 3 new songs just for our wedding, and the band itself was EXCEPTIONAL!! right amount of crowd interaction, played exactly the type of set list we were looking for, and just so much fun to sing and dance along to. only "negative" is that some of our older guests felt they were a little loud, but I think that is more a function of the acoustics of our venue. and my friends and i didnt notice any issue at all! completely recommend working with these guys-- fabulous to work with and incredible performers!

We had the time of our lives and can't stop raving about Soul City. Our friends and family said the band were incredible! A lot of guests have asked where we found such a great band. Seriously, they are the best. We couldn't stop dancing all night and wanted to keep going when the night ended! Tucker on saxophone is just fabulous. It was SO fun to get up on the stage with the band for a song. If something good came out of postponing our wedding, it was having the opportunity to book y Soul City. We can’t imagine doing anything else. We are their biggest fans now!

BEST BAND EVER! Don’t look any further just book them now if you want the best wedding ever!

INSANELY GOOD. I had several guests who said "that band MADE your wedding!" They knew what to play, when, and did so with infectious enthusiasm from start to finish. Natalie is a complete pleasure to work with on the logistics end. She is responsive and communicates clearly and never runs out of patience with your many nervous bride questions. This band is worth every penny. I mean it. EVERY PENNY. I will never forget watching all of my guests dance the night away. Do yourself a favor and hire them now.

All I can say is…WOW! What an INCREDIBLE and TALENTED group of individuals Soul City is! Our wedding was two weeks ago and our friends and family cannot stop talking about how amazing this band is! Natalie and her team are incredibly communicative and organized, making the booking process easy and stress-free. They were so attentive to every detail, and even sent us recordings of our first dance and parent dances well ahead of time so we could practice! My husband and I cannot recommend Soul City enough. If you’re on the fence about hiring a DJ vs. a band, my advice? BOOK THE BAND AND MAKE SURE YOU BOOK SOUL CITY! You will not regret it and they will ensure you will have the best night of your life! Thank you, Soul City!❤️

From start to finish, Soul City was truly AMAZING. We had the most memorable and amazing night thanks to Natalie and Tucker. They were patient, positive, and extremely communicative throughout the whole planning process. They worked with us on every aspect of our big day and put our minds at ease whenever things got stressful. We had a large (and crazy) wedding party, and Natalie and her team had open arms throughout the whole night. During the whole wedding weekend, the number 1 thing that people complimented us on was Soul City and how we found such an unbelievable band. I cannot thank Natalie and Tucker enough - they truly made our wedding weekend something we will never forget. This is a SPECIAL group and it is the best decision we made when planning our wedding.

Soul City is amazing to work with!!! They played at my dad and stepmom's wedding and I knew right then and there they needed to play at mine. My husband and I had such an easy and pleasant time working with Natalie -- she is SO communicative and lovely. The band itself is so talented, we raged the entire night! Guests could not stop talking about Soul City and how amazing they were -- the energy, the fun, the talent, EVERYTHING. These guys do it right -- highly recommend this talented, professional, and kind group!!!

Soul City band is the best! Natalie, the band manager, was incredibly accomodating in us booking the band and having to switch around dates due to Covid-19. Throughout every step of the way, she was understanding and responsive. It was a breath of fresh air during a very stressful time. I can't say enough about the integrity and professionalism of this band. Not only are they a talented group of individuals, but they are above and beyond with customer service and they made sure to provide the best experience possible for us.

Soul City was the best band we could have hoped for on our special day! They really brought the party and kept it going all night.

I could listen to Soul City all day every day and smile. Natalie and Tucker are so friendly and the band is AMAZING. If you want a VERY talented band that is not just a wedding band who knows how to have fun, this is who you want. We couldn't stop dancing all night!

If we could give Soul City 10 stars, we would! Natalie, Tucker, and the rest of the band were INCREDIBLE last week at our Scituate, MA wedding. Early on, we knew we wanted a band. After seeing Soul City at a No Kids Hungry charity event, we KNEW they were the band we wanted. Throughout the planning process, Natalie was incredibly professional and very easy to communicate with. She was very organized, accommodating and positive throughout! Planning during COVID-19 was not easy, but working with Natalie & Soul City made it that much better. We had music throughout the cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. Our guests had the BEST things to say about Soul City, they felt like they were at a concert! Soul City has choreographed dance moves for their songs, the wind instruments brought the energy to the next level, and the lead singers were on FIRE!!!!! The whole band is incredibly talented and to know that our guests had the best time at our reception because of their music made my husband and I so happy! We couldn't wipe the smiles off of our faces all night long. We plan to recommend Soul City to everyone we know who is looking for a band!

While we did not have Soul City perform at our wedding as we had to cancel due to COVID-19 I would be remiss if I did not express my gratitude for Natalie and her professionalism during such a difficult time. From the very first conversation with her, we felt confident that Soul City would deliver exactly what we were looking for! Natalie was so responsive and easy to work with. As a musician himself, my fiance spent countless hours searching for the perfect band for our wedding and we found it in Soul City. I even went to see them perform at a venue in Cambridge and was not disappointed (highly recommend doing so)! They are truly a family, and you can tell by the way they perform. Do not hesitate to hire Soul City for wedding!

Soul City came highly recommended, and I couldn't have been happier with how easy Natalie was to work with. They are definitely in the business of "making couples' dreams come true".

The hands down BEST decision we made (besides marrying each other) was choosing Soul City as our wedding band. Their talent cannot be summed up in words. Natalie and team were always available to us, directly managed coordination with our venue and didn't laugh when we asked for the office theme song for our recessional. And if you don't believe me... you can read my husband's lengthy review: In the distant sky, you see a flash of light. A storm is coming. Soon, rolling thunder echoes through the ballroom. Your table begins to shake. You look over at your family. Your grandmother is frightened. Your baby cousin begins to cry. A crack of lightning shocks your guests into a stunned silence. And then. Like the booming voice of the Almighty, and his heavenly singing angels, the Soul City singers take center stage. Another bolt of lightning flashes across the night sky. Rainfall is drowned out by majestic horns. Thunder is silenced by one electric strum of the bass. Feet start tapping. Hips start shaking. And the people--they start to dance. With the superhuman strength that only Soul City can inspire, your grandmother climbs out of her wheelchair and begins to moonwalk across the dance floor. She hasn't walked in seven years. Your baby cousin's wailing becomes uncontrollable laughter. He looks into your eyes and screams "this is the best wedding band ever!" He has never spoken a word before. He is nine months old. Brides, grooms, this story is no fable. It was not imagined. It happened--to us. We witnessed the otherworldly power of Soul City at our wedding, and we cherished every solo, every strum, every note. Book Soul City for your wedding. And then call your grandmother to share the good news.

Really difficult to put into words just how amazing Soul City is. When my husband and I were planning our wedding, the most important part to us was the band. Our priority was having amazing music and energy that kept people on the dance floor, with our music tastes being a mix of classic Motown as well as some more recent hits. Soul City delivered on all that and much more. They are extremely talented - not only is their music incredible, from the performances themselves to the set lists, to their coordinated dance moves, and their AMAZING brass section, but their chemistry together and the way they treat each other and the audience is really unparalleled. It is so clear in everything they do how much they genuinely love making music together and performing, and it translates into such an amazing atmosphere. Working with Natalie was awesome - we always felt extremely taken care of, and everything was always so personalized. My husband and I had a few non-traditional details to work through with our wedding - a winter wedding, in Maine, in a barn, with a slightly non-standard flow of the event - which can make it especially difficult for a band to coordinate, especially such a large band. But Natalie was extremely flexible and supportive of our plans, we worked together to make everything work, and everything went off completely without a hitch. We felt like the success of our day in general was just as important to Natalie as it was to us, and even since the event we have still kept in touch on social media, which further proves how much Soul City genuinely cares about and connects with their couples. As we continue to look back on our wedding, without exaggeration, Soul City truly made the entire night as amazing as it was. From the minute they started playing, the party started, and did not stop. We have heard nothing but amazing reviews from our guests, with everyone begging to know who Soul City is. If you are lucky enough to be able to book Soul City for your wedding, do not hesitate - I cannot stress enough how happy you will be with that decision!

What is the word that describes BEYOND extraordinary? Soul City is not a band, it is an experience. An incredible experience at that. We are forever sgrateful to be able to have the opportunity to work with Natalie, Tucker, and the entire Soul City family this past Saturday at our wedding at Saybrook Point Inn. To say that everyone was on their feet is not an exaggeration. The music was electric. The passion and energy was undeniable. The experience was priceless. This was one of the best decisions we made while wedding planning - investing in a band like no other. We can’t count how many of our guests asked who our band was and where they were from. People LOVED them! Thank you Soul City! Truly. You were nothing short of AMAZING!!!! We thank you sincerely. Hope to work with you again someday! -Tom & Pantea Umrysz

Soul City was unbelievable! They were extremely helpful throughout the whole planning process and made us feel like everything was perfect. They were exactly what we were looking for and really rocked the party all night long! Thanks Soul City!

Best Wedding Band! Soul City preformed at our wedding in October and had everyone up dancing. People were blown away by how amazing the music was. We love Soul City so much that we have been to many of their shows in the Boston area and will continue to go see them even though the wedding is over! They are a great group to work with and will go out of their way to make your wedding music perfect! We had two musicians for the ceremony, three for the cocktail hour and the full band for the reception. Soul City made the wedding truly unforgettable!

This band was simply amazing! It was so much fun to have them be a part of our special night. They were connected to our crowd and kept the energy alive until the very end! Great musicians. Excellent song lists. Trust them with your wedding and you won’t be disappointed!

This band was unbelievable, my sister in law used them a couple years ago for their wedding, so the day after our engagement we contacted Natalie to book them! That's how we got our wedding date because we knew we had to have them play for us. Not a person was sitting the whole night and everyone is still talking about them weeks after the wedding!

I cannot say enough great things about Soul City! They were incredible to work with. Natalie is extremely responsive, organized and easy to work with which makes the entire planning process that much smoother. When it came to our actual wedding day, they were incredible! They did a great job of reading the crowd and playing music that still has our guests talking, four months later! They managed to be the perfect mix of professional and fun. If you're looking for a top notch band- look no further!

We can’t give Soul City enough praise! From when we first inquired, band manager and lead vocalist Natalie was there to quickly answer any questions we had about options, pricing, etc. That didn’t stop once we booked either -- she was always just an email or phone call away, even offering advice on best practices outside of the “wedding band” purview. She is so warm and sweet, it felt like I was bouncing ideas off of one of my bridesmaids. When it came to showtime, Soul City blew our guests away. They provided ceremony music (keyboardist and guitarist + ceremony sound reinforcement), and reception music for the most amazing party of our lives! Soul City got everyone involved (even the kiddos!) and came out onto the dance floor multiple times to interact with everyone. It truly felt they were just an extension of our family celebration. This is one super talented group of musicians – we went to see them multiple times before our wedding, and will continue to go to their shows because they are just THAT good! Book them now before some other lucky couple snatches them up – it will be one of the best and easiest wedding decisions you make.

Soul City is absolutely the BEST!! Early on into wedding planning my husband & I knew we really wanted to have a live band. We did a bunch of research and from the moment we went to see Soul City perform in Cambridge and my dad couldn't keep himself off the dance floor, we knew we found the right band. Natalie was so incredible to work with throughout the whole process - she was incredibly responsive & proactive - coming up with questions or ideas that we hadn't even thought of. She took the stress out of planning and made us both feel really confident going into the big day that everything would be taken care of. Our wedding on June 1 was INCREDIBLE and Soul City had a huge role in making it the best day of our lives! We had such a blast on the dance floor, the musicians were incredibly talented, fun and professional all at the same time. Natalie did a fantastic job MC'ing our evening, and even mastered pronouncing my new last name right (which is a feat!). All of our guests raved about the music and we continue to get compliments on it even months later! We can't thank Soul City enough for the best night!

While we might be biased, we truly think we had the best wedding. And the best decision we made about our wedding was hiring Soul City. They totally put it over the top. First, the music. They are true professionals and are incredible musicians. They not only play the songs perfectly, they put on a show, make you feel special and get everyone dancing. It was a helluva party. My wife and I are also musicians... Soul City openly welcomed us to join them on stage to perform a song with them (me on drums and my wife on vocals) and it was a memory we will never forget. Second, they are a pleasure to work with. From start to finish we felt our needs and wants were not only listened to but fulfilled with a smile. A great customer experience that was a blessing in midst of a process that most would agree can be incredibly stressful. You are in great hands with Natalie. Thank you Soul City for everything! We love you guys.

Because of these talented and FUN musicians, it made our son and daughter in law’s wedding memorial, brought everyone together while having a ball. I would recommend them to ANYONE who wants an evening that EVERYONE will remember. Thank you Soul City. We ♥️♥️♥️ You!

Both my new husband and I work in the music industry so when we decided to get married we would have nothing else but a top notch band. A friend told us about Soul City so we went to hear them. They were warm and welcoming and eager to help us have a wonderful wedding. The band has 3 excellent vocalists, 4 great horn players along with an accomplished pianist and rhythm section. We were concerned about sound levels so they assured us that would not be a problem. I have to say that every time someone talks about our wedding they rave about the band. Everyone danced and had an amazing free spirited time. I could not have been happier. With their expertise and thoughtfulness, they made our ceremony, cocktail hour and wedding very special.

Oh my goodness- do yourself a favor and book Soul City!!! They were unbelievable, true performers. Every one of our guests were raving about them and the dance floor was filled all night long. Natalie was so responsive and helpful throughout the whole process and we were so glad we booked with them. The music choices were diverse and they took our song requests and made them one of a kind. Soul City, we love you guys!!! Thank you so much!

Soul City really knows how to get everyone up on the dance floor and keep them there! We had an incredible time dancing during the entire reception. Our guest could not stop raving about the band. Every communication leading up to the wedding was prompt. Music during the ceremony and cocktail hour were spot on.

Booking Soul City was one of the best decisions we made in wedding planning! Our wedding was SOOO much fun and everyone was up and dancing (even multiple 95+ year olds) up until the last song. Every single member of this band is so talented!! We had ceremony + cocktail hour music in addition to reception music; it was all perfect. Natalie was so responsive and helpful throughout the planning process in making sure that everything was exactly what we wanted. We had some special requests which were accommodated flawlessly. Could not imagine our wedding without Soul City - they are true professionals and they were a main highlight of the evening!!

Soul City was so amazing to work with! I had changes and questions up until the day before and Natalie answered every single one of them! The dance floor was PACKED all night and that is exactly what we wanted for a NYE wedding :) Thank you so much to ALL of Soul City!!
