Fantastic! Spectacular! Amazing! Fun!

We had the 8 piece Stax band for our daughter and son-in-laws wedding three weeks ago, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice! From the violinist for the ceremony, to the music during the cocktail hour and on to the reception, all of it was spectacular! Each band member is so talented, the music was awesome, and the energy was infectious! It was the best band we have ever enjoyed! We also received so many compliments from our friends remarking on how amazing and fun they were!
East Coast Soul was also so easy and pleasant to work with during the planning process!

We HIGHLY recommend East Coast Soul for any event! They are truly spectacular!

Must have at your wedding!

East Coast Soul came highly recommended from multiple GUESTS of different weddings. The guests quoted “best band I have ever seen at a wedding.” So, we booked them, and now, all of our guests are saying that is the best band they’ve ever seen at a wedding!! Communication was clear during the planning, making that process seamless. Music was incredible! Our dance floor was packed the entire time. The musicians are very talented. You must have East Coast Soul for your wedding!! We had Soulsville - they were a hit!

incredible!

East Coast Soul was incredible - one of our top priorities for our wedding was to have an awesome band that kept people on the dance floor for hours. And wow, did they deliver - From start to finish they went above and beyond with transparent communication & incorporating our vision into the night’s performance. We had the time of our lives at our wedding, in large part because of East Coast Soul’s energy and talent. We would recommend ECS any day to anyone looking for the best!
