"You accommodated our schedule, it took a weight of our minds" - Thanks to the band for making our reception so special. The music was fantastic! We also really appreciated how you accommodated our schedule, it took a weight of our minds in the run up to the big day! Best wishes, Michael & Helen.

"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 couldn't get onto the dance floor at times as it was so packed!!" - Thank you so much for everything that you and the band did on the wedding day. You were all absolutely fantastic and I have to say, I couldn't get onto the dance floor at times as it was so packed!! Everyone commented on how great the band was and I know for a fact another couple that are getting married have enquired about you. We went to a wedding at Mallory a few months ago and there were many of the same guests so I was desperate for our wedding to be different, having you there made sure of that. Anyway, I could go on and on. Thank you so much for helping to make our day so special!! Love, Adam and Krystal (Mr and Mrs Irwin!!)

"You really made our wedding day" - Just a small email to say an absolutely massive thank you for playing such wonderful sets at our wedding yesterday. We thought you were amazing - and so many of our guests have commented about how great they thought you were too. I think the crowded dance floor and wolf whistles throughout said it all! You really made our wedding day. Many thanks again, and best of best wishes. Liz and Paul (Mr and Mrs Taylor!) xx

Ray Charles is often cited as inventing the soul genre with his string of hits starting with 1954's "I Got a Woman". Charles was open in acknowledging the influence of Pilgrim Travelers vocalist Jesse Whitaker on his singing style. Another view has it that a decade would transpire until Solomon Burke's early recordings for Atlantic Records codified the soul style; his early 1960s songs "Cry to Me", "Just Out of Reach" and "Down in the Valley" are considered classics of the genre.
