Shakers of Soul

The Shakers of Soul are one of the UK’s newest and most exciting Soul and Disco bands, catering for high end events both in the UK and worldwide. All band members are world class musicians brought together by a love for Soul, Disco, Funk and Motown. Although the band are relatively young (28 average age), they all have at least 10 years experience playing the highest profile events, weddings and shows (listed below).

The band line-up consists of 2 Lead Vocalists, Drums, Bass, Guitar, Saxophone, Trumpet, Keyboards and Percussion. This line-up can be expanded or made smaller to fit your perfect event (although we don’t usually go lower than 6-piece). We always travel with our own sound engineer and lighting show to add that extra flare to your event.

Below are a list of recent accolades for the band members;
