"I was very proud to have you play at my party" - The only feedback I have for you guys is 'Brilliant !!' Everybody loved you, so I was very proud to have you play at my party. We had such a good night and every time I speak to anyone they all ask where I found you! My daughter Sophie was so impressed with you all that she is now busy trying to convince her music friends to form a band just like you! So now you have two more groupies....a 40 year old and a 10 year old! As you probably guessed on the night, my whole family love music (and dancing!) so it was really important to me to have the right band to make it a special occasion and you did just that. All my friends came expecting a great music night and you certainly delivered! They all thought you were fantastic so please pass on a very big thank you to everyone for me. Rachel Wilson.

"We will not hesitate to recommend you!" - Thank you all for a fantastic night! We will not hesitate to recommend you! Thanks again! love Sarah & Andy xxx

"They were perfect for our special occasion" - This great band played at our wedding recently and we cannot praise them enough. They played two great sets which got everyone, particularly me the groom, up dancing and singing along to some great tunes. They were perfect for our special occasion and we hope to go to one of their own gigs in the very near future. Book them for your own celebration and I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Thanks Jon and fellow band members for making our special day that extra bit special. Jim&Val.      

"Our friends haven’t stopped texting and ringing saying how much they enjoyed the day" - I would just like to say a great big thank you for your contribution to making our wedding day so fantastic and making the evening party so enjoyable!! I have obviously read the testimonials on your website and seen your videos and therefore was expecting a great evening’s entertainment, however what you gave us totally surpassed all our expectations! Our friends haven’t stopped texting and ringing us saying how much they enjoyed the day, especially commenting on how fantastic the band were!! So once again thank you all so much, and if we ever are throwing a large party again, I will definitely be calling you, and would not hesitate to recommend you to anybody else. Thank you. Jill & Harry.

"I doubt there is a better function band out there" - We went to see Junction 2 do one of their public appearances and knew immediately we wanted them for our wedding. They have a fantastic repertoire to appeal to all ages and are all obviously excellent musicians. The dance floor was packed all night, and the band were very flexible to fit in with our requirements and timings. I doubt there is a better function band out there; our guests could not believe how good you guys were.

"I seriously cannot recommend these guys enough. They will make your
 night fantastic!" -
They are approachable, polite, accommodating with our requests prior to the wedding, even singing our rewritten version of our first dance. All of our guests commented on what a great set they played and there wasn’t anyone that resisted the temptation to hit the dance floor. A massive thank you to each band member. I seriously cannot recommend these guys enough. They will make your night fantastic!

"They were polite & friendly, extremely professional" - Junction 2 arrived early and were very well organized. They were polite & friendly, extremely professional. Regarding their performance, they exceeded our expectations!

"The dance floor was packed all evening and everyone was dancing from the first song" -
 The band were absolutely great, we were so, so pleased - beyond our expectations and everyone there of all ages has commented how entertaining and fun the music and performance was. The song choice was a great mix with some current and some older stuff. The band helped with providing a great atmosphere and did exactly as they were asked with a really great attitude. Know a couple of guests have already recommended you to other people so that is enough evidence for me! The dance floor was packed all evening and everyone was dancing from the first song. Beyond that all our dealings with you were really helpful, professional and you took the stress out of wedding planning. Would not hesitate to book you again and would love you to be at every wedding we go to.

"I've spent the last two days apologizing to a lot of my guests, cause once the band came on, I never left the dance floor." - Booked the band for a joint 50/18th birthday party & all my daughters friends have not stopped talking about what a great night they all had. The band did a couple of sets and once the first note was played the dance floor just filled up. I've spent the last two days apologizing to a lot of my guests, cause once the band came on, I never left the dance floor.  If your in to live soul music and I mean LIVE !!!!! this is the band for you. The whole band just love to entertain and made all our guests feel very special. Book them now before everybody else finds out about them, I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Thanks again for making our birthday party so special. Kevin & Nicola

"If you do one thing in this lifetime, book this band" - If you do one thing in this lifetime, book this band, if you have no money, take to violent crime, because if you want to have a party then you can A) put a DJ on and finger dance or B ) book this band and have an amazing time and get everyone dancing. Junction 2 played at my wedding this year and made the night, well actually my wife did later on but up until that point they were No1 in my book. Book them book them book them.   

American population, the Second Great Migration, which was accompanied by a significant increase of the real income of the urban Blacks. The new migrants constituted a new market for the music industry. The name race record disappeared and was succeeded by Rhythm and Blues. This rapidly evolving market was mirrored by the Billboard Rhythm and Blues Chart. This marketing strategy reinforced trends within urban blues music such as the progressive electrification of the instruments, their amplification and the generalization of the blues beat, the blues shuffle, that became ubiquitous in R&B. This commercial stream had important consequences for blues music which, together with Jazz and Gospel music, became a component of the R&B wave.
