Sweet Soul Music

Big Macs Wholly Soul Band is a ten-piece music sensation, comprising the classic horn section, featuring tenor sax, trombone and trumpet; a scintillating, swaying blur of burnished brass punching out staccato chords or slipping in swirling swathes of sound that beef up the bands backbone.

Fronted by two highly-visual and energetic female singers, alternating with great facility between lead and harmony vocals, not to mention costume changes, and adding that seminal gospel sweetness to the hard, earthy grittiness inherent in the Stax / Atlantic repertoire.

The band have appeared on numerous occasions on BBC Radio and TV shows and performed for many blue chip companies, private functions and weddings.

Testimonials

"An explosive start to the evening was provided by Big Mac's Wholly Soul Band. This is the way to play soul and Motown-a full ten piece band, great brass section, girl backing singers, pulsating rhythm section and Big Mac himself on lead vocals-not only great musicianship but also a great performance."
