Stella Soul

Absolutely! We've become the 'go-to' showband for international events by consistently delivering an unrivalled entertainment experience that guarantees a night you and your guests will never forget!

We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the DJ set - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.

Around 90 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.

At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.

We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed DJ service (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.

Yes - we can provide a range of options for during the day - from instrumental jazz duo to roaming acoustic acts with vocals. Please contact us for more details and a bespoke quote.

The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.

If you upgrade to the live DJ service, you can still send over preferences in advance, but you will also have a band member selecting and mixing tracks live on the night, as well as taking requests. The DJ will be happy to make important announcements but they will not talk constantly over or between tracks (that's just not our style!). We also think it's important to say that the DJ won't have a separate DJ booth - they will set up in an appropriate space (ideally to the side of the stage) and the PA/lighting will be the same as what is being used by the band.

Yes – all included in the price, we also travel with a professional sound engineer. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.

The published guide price is based on our 7-piece (drums, bass, guitar, keys, sax, male and female lead vocals) line-up performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in London. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hours 30 mins drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.

Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.

Yes.

Yes, as long as we have two weeks notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.

There's some flexibility with this and we can adjust to smaller spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 3m x 6m.

4 x 13-amp sockets is fine for our system.

Ideally soft drinks and a hot meal or buffet. If you are unable to provide this we do have a rider buyout option.

As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.
