We're happy to provide music from Spotify before, after, and between sets, either based on your preferences or our own selection.
We've had incredible experiences performing at iconic venues like Wembley Arena and the Royal Albert Hall, and each festival we've headlined has been unforgettable. The most rewarding gigs are always the ones where we connect with the audience and create a truly memorable atmosphere, like the wedding where the dancefloor was packed all night and guests couldn't stop raving about the music.
Our individual influences span a vast range of artists, from classic soul legends like Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder to modern pop icons like Beyoncé and Dua Lipa. Pinpointing one favorite artist or "greatest song of all time" is tough, but we all share a deep appreciation for artists who push boundaries and create music that resonates with people across generations, much like the diverse range of artists in our repertoire, from Queen to Adele.
Each member of Somerset Soul has a rich musical history, with experience in various bands and projects before coming together. We've honed our skills through rigorous training at prestigious institutions like BIMM and the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, and countless performances in diverse settings, from intimate clubs to grand theaters. Our shared passion for live music and creating unforgettable experiences is what ultimately brought us together, allowing us to deliver performances that captivate audiences, just like the wedding where guests were amazed by our ability to switch from ballads to high-energy pop.
We love the energy and excitement of weddings and parties, where we can contribute to creating a joyous celebration and see firsthand the joy we bring to people, like the couple who said we made their wedding day truly special.

Our performance includes two energetic 60-minute live sets usually from around 8pm, guaranteed to get everyone on the dance floor. In between sets, we'll keep the party vibe going with carefully curated background music, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for everyone.
