    Best decision ever!

    When we were looking for wedding bands, there were SO many options! As soon as we heard Shaded Soul, our search was over.
    Booking Renee and Shaded Soul was the best decision we made for our wedding. Every time we spoke, Renee reassured us that she had seen it all and had everything under control- and she did! Starting with cocktail hour, Renee checked on my husband and myself and made sure we had drinks in hand. Introductions and our first dance were smooth, and then the party started! The dance floor was PACKED the entire night, and everyone I spoke to said the band was amazing.
    If you're on the fence about picking a band for your wedding- don't hesitate! Shaded Soul is the best!!

    Get your guests groovin' to the sounds of Shaded Soul!

    We were so happy to have Shaded Soul at our wedding! They played very nicely at the cocktail hour and then a rocking dance set at the reception. The band kept our guests on the dance floor the whole night and we had many guests tell us how much they enjoyed dancing to their music. I will also add that no one complained that they were TOO loud, which is always a concern for an indoor wedding with many older guests. The volume and balance was perfect. There is some serious talent in the group-- horns, rhythm, and vocals. They were also very professional. Renee, the band leader, was super accommodating and detail-oriented with our special requests which included various musical guest performances including a special song played by the bride and groom, and another one sung by the fathers of the bride and groom. It made for a very special and memorable musical evening. 10/10 would recommend for your wedding, party, or any function that will get you dancing.

    Shaded Soul Band Wedding

    Shaded Soul Band was the perfect fit for our wedding. From the time my husband and I booked them, Renee was always in communication with us making sure she got everything right for our wedding. We couldn’t have asked for a better band for our wedding. All of our guests can’t stop talking about how incredible they were. Highly highly recommend!!
