East Coast Soul Reviews

Great show! Thank you!

East Coast Soul played funky, danceable, accessible songs that had people of all generations dancing at our wedding. Second to seeing my wife walk down the aisle, the best memory of my wedding day was looking out over the dance floor half way through their first set, and seeing it packed. All night people were saying, "this band is great" not as conversation filler, but because they couldn't help expressing how much they were enjoying themselves. The horns, the three singers, and the dance moves really impressed. From the beginning I had the feeling East Coast Soul would do a good job, and they exceeded my expectations.

Working with this band was incredible. From our initial engagement all the way to the event itself, the band and it's members were extremely accommodating. Our wedding was fairly unconventional, and the band rolled right along with all of our odd requests. Not only did they learn a Vulfpeck tune for us, but the rest of their set was incredible and much of it was not the standard wedding band tunes you'd expect. They had us dancing all night, and their sound was full and fun!

In a word: tight. This band is tight. They have an extensive repertoire that covers several decades of dance-able music and they're not afraid to use it. Leading up to the wedding they were easy to reach and worked with us to give us the show we were looking for. I'm downright snobby when it comes to music and ECS was able to put together a playlist which both met my outlandish standards and kept the dance floor packed. They were ready and willing to be as involved as we wanted them to be with MC-ing the reception. We chose to have them less involved, but based on everything else, I'm sure they would've done a wonderful job.
