    LOVED East Coast Soul - Soulsville Ensemble

    We hired East Coast Soul for our wedding (specifically the Soulsville Ensemble), and they completely blew us and our guests away. Their song selection list is super long, the vocals were fantastic, and the entire band brought so much talent and energy to the stage. They read the crowd perfectly, keeping the dance floor busy and the vibe high all night long. Beyond their amazing performance, they were incredibly fun, professional, and easy to work with throughout the entire planning process. So many wedding guests complimented our band selection, asked for their name and where they are based - a sign of how much people loved them! If you want a band that will make your wedding unforgettable, book them immediately!

    Hands down the best band

    East Coast Soul was absolutely INCREDIBLE! The dance floor was packed from start to finish, and all the guests kept saying how they’re the best wedding band they’ve ever seen. Absolutely worth every penny. They’re incredibly friendly, organized, and flexible - could not recommend highly enough!

    East Coast Soul was AMAAAAAAZING! The entire party was on the dance floor all night. The music, the voices, the momentum - all of it was just fabulous. Couldn't give them higher marks.

    East Coast Soul Verve Ensemble are Amazing!!

    We cannot recommend East Coast Soul Verve Ensemble enough. Not only was the East Coast Soul team professional and easy to work with, but the actual wedding night was where they truly blew us away. Our number one priority was getting people on the dance floor and keeping them there, and they exceeded every expectation. The energy they brought was electric! They kept the momentum going all night long! We’ve lost count of how many guests have told us they were the best wedding band they’ve ever heard. If you want a band that is talented, high-energy, and knows how to read a room, look no further. Truly an exceptional experience!

    ECS Incredible wedding decision!

    East Coast Soul was one of the best vendor decisions we made for our wedding! We had the Philly ensemble at our wedding, and for weeks after the wedding, guests were still going out of their way to tell us how great the band was. The dance floor was packed all night and they brought incredible energy to every song! They also performed our ceremony music and the trumpeter and piano player played our requested songs (“Moanin’” by Art Blakey and “La Vie En Rose”) so beautifully and it set such a special tone for the day! We got married on an island and it was so reassuring to hear that ECS had experience bringing the band and the set up out to the venue. They handled coordinating with the island to get the equipment earlier and it was so reassuring that they had everything under control , even given the logistically complex venue! The pre-wedding survey made it easy to share our preferences without being overly prescriptive. Everything felt well-organized, effortless, and perfectly executed! Thank you so much!
