Gavin's Wedding in East Perth, Apr 2024

We hired Dr Soul for our wedding and were blown away by their performance. Their vocals are simply extraordinary and the mix of brass instruments among the nine musicians added such a fun, upbeat atmosphere to the evening. They played a fantastic set list which perfectly set the mood throughout the night and expertly worked the crowd to get them involved (we loved it when some of the band came and played among the guests on the dance floor). And they even memorised a song at our request to play for our first dance. Dr Soul were the highlight of our night and we really can't recommend them highly enough!!

Laura's Wedding in Fremantle, Jan 2024

Incredible and talented band! Dr Soul played at our wedding and we had the best time. They are super professional and easy to work with. They are also really flexible and were able to play some chilled mood music during dinner with a small section of the band, then switch to dancing music with the full band for afterwards. Everyone was dancing all night and we received many comments from our guests about how great the band was. Would highly recommend!

Chiara's Birthday Party in Perth, Jan 2023

Wow. Is literally all I can say! The music and enthusiasm Dr Soul provided for my 30th on the weekend was unbelievable! It was a Gatsby themed roaring 20's to say goodbye to my 20's and Dr Soul brought the magic of the night. The event would not have been half of what it was without this team. Loved every minute of them and will be using them again without hesitation should I ever need another band! Thanks again all.

Rachel's Corporate Event in Perth, Oct 2022

Dr. Soul Band performed at our WA Branch 50th Anniversary Dinner, providing some light dinner music to begin with, then the entire ensemble had our guests up on the dance floor, rocking the night away. With our 70s theme, we were entertained with some classics of the era and across the decades. Dr Soul Band helped create a fun atmosphere for our event and I loved every minute of the sets performed. It was our pleasure to work with John, Rich and the entire band and I won’t hesitate to consider having Dr. Soul Band return for a future event.

Dr Soul and the Groovy Humans were fantastic! They made the night so fun and enjoyable for the guests, getting everyone up and dancing! Also, thank you to the band for letting our MC for the event get up and sing a song with you all. The guests loved it! I would definitely hire Dr Soul and the Groovy Humans again at another event! The booking processes was easy, they are great communicators and slotted in our requested songs into their set lists! Absolutely 5/5! Thanks for a great night!
