Absolutely awesome performance. people were up and dancing all through the evening. Having Soul Funktion play at the reception was the icing on the cake to a perfect day. Soul Funktion were easy and efficient to liase with and were extremely professional from start to finish. Everybody enjoyed the band tremendously and all wanted to know who they were for future functions.
We definately will be booking Soul Funktion again!

Band - The Spinning Wheel, Paignton on Thurs 22nd May 08
This was absolutely awesome! Went in the Spinny for just a pint and ended
up staying until the end. You had the whole place movin! Come and play there
again soon! The solos being played were outstanding!
Great entertainment!

This was a great night and it was made by what I can only describe as an excellent band. From the singers to the great brass section it was a quality perfomance. The dance floor was full from start to the finish. Their blend of old and more modern soul and rock 'n' roll was brilliant. If you like live bands you want to catch these guys and gals perform.
Thanks again, Helen (English Rivierra Centre, Torquay. 8th February 2008)
'Soul
Funktion' was one of the highlights to our wedding day. The band created a
great atmosphere and all the guests enjoyed the night no matter what the age
or their taste. The performance was exciting and very upbeat. They got everyone
on the dance floor and have been a talking point since the wedding.
We would highly recommend 'Soul Funktion' for any special event that you need
live entertainment.

“We hired Soulfunktion for our wedding because we wanted to create a
party atmosphere, and we wanted music that appealed to all generations. They
did a fantastic job, and the dance floor was packed all night. Thanks for
being a big part of our special day. Jon & Alex.”

Review - Charity event at Buckland A.F.C. - Newton Abbot.
Buckland AFC 22.02.06 - O WHAT A NIGHT.(Edited version)
Felt compelled to write a few words regarding Saturday night’s entertainment at the clubhouse.
As soon
as you walked into the club and saw the band set up you could see they meant
business, all ten of them.
The band kicked the evening of at about 8-30 and by 8-40 the dance floor was
full.
Their music was so infectious and I challenge anyone not to dance or at least
jig where you stood.
The name of the band being Soul Funktion , they play their music with real
feeling and look like they enjoy what they do.
To rapturous applause from the crowd, Soul Funktion strike up for their second set and it’s like a danceathon now as you cant leave the floor as the music is that good.
As always
happens good things always come to an end and as the band bow out they to
receive rapturous applause.
As people make their way home I hope they thought the same as me, when live
music is performed like this you cannot beat it.
A big thank-you to Soul Funktion for helping to raise funds for the club.
Many
thanks.
Nigel Holmes. Buckland AFC.
Hi Guys
n Girls,
Dave & I would just like to thank you for a fantastic night on Saturday
15th at Finlake. We have had rave reports back from all our guests, everyone
really enjoyed themselves and all mentioned how fantastic the band were.
We really appreciate it, and having such great music made our night one to
remember.
Please pass our thanks on to the entire band!
Best wishes
Caroline & Dave (Wedding
reception – Finlake Country Park)
Excellent vocals by two
lovely sounding and looking females with a top class brass section add to
the richness of sound with some excellent solo performances thrown in for
good measure. A solid performance from the unsung hero's at the back; drums,
bass, guitar and keyboards who keep it all together. Soul Funktion are pure
magic.

It was nice to see a mix of young and old in the band, great experience and energy.

“The music was fantastic and we could not do anything except take to the dance floor with the beat which brought everyone together. Soul Funktion joined in and made the party for us. Thank you so much.”
Everyone is talking about next year already! So I am sure that we will be in touch.
Thank you from everyone here again.
