"We knew when organising our wedding that having a good band was a priority, and Soul Flight well and truly delivered. If you’re looking for a band who will keep a big wedding party made up of young and old on the dance floor all night – look no further! Every song was a cracker and every one of the musicians and singers was just phenomenally talented. We’ve had more compliments on the band from guests than we can count. James was brilliant at helping us organise the band, even going the extra mile to set us up with a fab DJ and roaming saxophonist. Truly, we couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you Soul Flight and we really hope we’ll be able to dance the night away again with you soon!"
"Absolutely unreal – Soul Flight made our wedding! We had Soul Flight play at our wedding at Sir Henry’s Barn in Aveley, and honestly… they were next level. From the moment they started, they had the entire crowd up dancing — people who never dance were on the floor going for it. They sounded insanely good — like, actually better than most live gigs we’ve been to — and created this amazing atmosphere that felt more like a concert than a wedding. They played all our favourite songs and somehow made each one feel personal and fresh. It was just one of those nights where the music carried everyone. So many of our guests came up to us after and said it was the best live music they’d ever heard at a wedding — and honestly, we couldn’t agree more. Massive thank you to Soul Flight — you didn’t just play at our wedding, you elevated it. We’ll never forget it."
"Soul Flight were impeccable from start to finish. Despite us booking VERY last minute, James was incredibly helpful and accommodating to all our crazy requests and venue restrictions. His patience did not go unnoticed! On the day, the band were punctual, professional and very warm. And once they started playing - well, they were just incredible! Unique and engaging without any cheese, and the most brilliant vocals! They kept everyone dancing all night, and it honestly felt like we were at a private concert. The DJ sets in between were bang on, and switched into more modern music seamlessly. Two guests immediately requested their details and I will definitely be booking them again for future events. Thank you to the entire band and FTM for an amazing, unforgettable event."
"Where to begin - Soul Flight were hands down the highlight of our wedding. Simply SENSATIONAL. We have been to hundreds of weddings and no band we’ve seen live can compare to these guys. They had the dancefloor packed all night, all our guests have commented just how brilliant they were. James was also such an excellent communicator as manager, so easy to deal with. 1000000000/10"

We're regularly booked to perform for weddings and events at Kimpton Fitzroy Hotel in London and Wasing Park in Reading, UK.
The smallest line up is the 5-piece band consisting of female vocal, guitar, bass, drums and keyboards - this is the perfect line up for smaller venues and events which are not able to host our bigger line ups.
View our list of the UK's best soul & Motown bands ➡️
Our female vocals are some of the best London in the business, and know exactly how to get your guests off their seats and onto the dancefloor!
To truly experience what the band can offer though, we recommend a minimum of the 7-piece wedding band which is the same as the 5-piece, plus male vocal and saxophone.
Our male vocalist oozes soul and your guests are sure to love him!
Having a male and female duo front the band creates a wonderful dynamic on stage, and as a team they are able to work the crowd much better.
Our saxophone player is one of the best in the business, and when it's time for him to shine be prepared to see your guests' jaws drop as plays the most captivating melodies.
If you're lucky he may even leave the stage and join you and your guests in the middle of the dancefloor!
If funk is your thing we highly recommend adding a trumpet. There is nothing quite like the sound of a full brass section for that fat, funk sound. and having 2 horns working in combination allows the band to play more of the brass heavy songs such as "Move On Up" by Curtis Mayfield.
For a more tropical edge, why not add some percussion? Bongos and congas are a staple of disco and house music, but percussion is rarely seen on stage these days. So having a live bongo/ conga player is sure to please your guests, and this gives the band a more authentic disco sound and flavour.
For those looking for the ultimate line up, the band can complete their line up with an additional female vocalist. Having 3 vocalists allows the band to create luscious vocal harmonies, as well as perform choreography on stage and really work the dancefloor!
Expect to hear your favourite Funk, Soul, Motown and Disco classics by Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Chic, Earth Wind & Fire, Chaka Khan, Prince and Michael Jackson.
Not only that, but Soul Flight Band bring you right up to date with more recent hits inspired by these old school legends, with Beyonce, Bruno Mars and Pharell Williams and many more..!
For those of you looking for something super cool and off the charts, Soul Flight also perform a number of rare groove, funk, and acid jazz tracks which will keep even the most discerning listener happy!
All of this is presented to you in the unique Soul Flight style with glitz, glam, flair and energy for a spectacular night that you and your guests will never forget!
The Soul Flight Band has performed at many renowned venues in London and beyond including Blenheim Palace, Emirates Stadium, Madame Tussauds, The London Science Museum, Bush Hall, The Savoy, The Ritz, The Hilton, as well as 100's of smaller wedding venues across the country.
The most popular line up is the 7pc, which is the smallest line up featuring the perfect combination of male & female vocals, guitar, bass, drums, keyboards and saxophone.
Each of the singers are at the top of their game and know exactly how to get your guests off their seats and onto the dance floor!
Having a male and female vocalist creates a great dynamic on stage, and allows the band to perform the widest variety of genres.
If live horns are important to you, we highly recommend adding the trumpet.
There is nothing quite like the sound of a live horn section for that full, fat, funk sound, and having 2 horns working in combination allows the band to play more of the brass-heavy numbers where more than one brass member is essential.
For a more tropical edge, why not add some percussion? Bongos and congas are a staple of disco and house music, but percussion is rarely seen on stage these days.
So having a live bongo/conga player is sure to please your guests, and this gives the band a more authentic disco sound and flavour.
For those looking for the ultimate line up, the band can complete their line up with an additional female vocalist.
Having 3 vocalists allows the band to create luscious vocal harmonies, as well as perform choreography on stage and really work the dance floor!
You can also choose extra acoustic performances as a duo or trio in addition to the full band if required.
This is a very popular option during the wedding ceremony, drinks reception, or dinner before the party really begins!
Included within the price is a professional sound system suitable for up to 200 people, plus stage lighting and dancefloor lighting. The Soul Flight Band can also cater for much larger events - prices available on request.
