An energetic, floor-filling selection of Soul and Motown Classics.
Talented musicians with a résumé to match, the band delivers sweet soul grooves with the knockout punch of a super-charged power-pop combo.
Based in the West Midlands, Motorsoul is set-up to provide high quality music utilising a compact four-piece line-up, making it an ideal choice for venues both large and small.
Formed in 2012, the band has played hundreds of shows up and down the country garnering great reviews wherever they go. During their extensive travels, Motorsoul have found themselves engaged at private functions, weddings, parties and numerous holiday resorts, notably appearing many times at Butlin’s ‘Soul Weekenders’.
‘We’ve been all over the place,’ guitarist Dave told the Talent Society. ‘One Friday we played to thirty people at a local Black Country pub, and the next night we were up in front of two-and-a-half-thousand in Skegness. The Butlin’s shows are a highlight because they’re so big, but wherever you go, it’s always about getting across to the audience and maintaining the bond. Dominique’s one of the few I’ve worked with who can do that.’
