Cowbridge Food & Drink Festival 2016

This has become an annual date for us. Last year we had a fantastic time playing at the Champagne Tent set up by The Bear Hotel in Cowbridge as part of the Food & Drink Festival. This year we repeated and topped it up. Fantastic night, great crowd and delicious food. Thanks to Esther and Lydia!

Upcoming promotional video!

We are happy to announce that everything is ready for recording our 2016 promotional video.

We have chosen The Rosedew Barn at Llanwit Major because it is a stunning place, please take a look at their website.
We played there last year for Carly and Chris and enjoyed it so much that we have chosen the venue as the background to our video.

Patrick & Stacey Wedding 29.11.15 @ Court Colman

Court Colman is one of the venues we've worked with from the beginning. We visited it again last November to celebrate Patrick and Stacey's wedding. Check out what the couple said!

"Hi guys, We cannot put into words how great the band were last night. We are very grateful for such an outstanding show! 
Thanks again, great job! 
Regards 
Patrick"


But then Patrick wrote this amazing testimonial for us in Facebook. It means a lot to us coming from a fellow musician:

Suzanne's birthday party @ The Wharf

"Thanks Jose, it all went perfectly (apart from the fire alarm!!!! Lol!) I really enjoyed myself and had a great night - glad you all did too!
And thanks to your bass player too as elvis! 😂😂� It was lovely that he wore the costume. Please pass on my gratitude. Er hu!!!!!! 😝
Everyone said how good you were and just how well all things went.
I'm going to miss our emails! 😊😊
See you soon"

Katherine Miller Birthday Party @ Srum V 10.10.15

One of those gigs that we will remember for a long time. Katherine hired us to celebrate her birthday and from the beginning we knew it was going to be a good party.

We enjoyed every step, from meeting with her to ultimate details to playing at Srum V on the day everything was fun!

We will confess a secret though... it can be a bit scary to play in front of the whole BBC National Orchestra of Wales.... but they loved it!

"Hi Jose!

I am listening Rather Be as I am cleaning up, had such a FANTASTIC night. Thank you to all of you, everyone was blown away by your music and you should have a few 'likes' this morning because we've all been taking about you on Facebook. If I'm not working we will be there on the 12th and I'm already working on the next excuse to throw another party. I will email you some photos my friend took of you. I can't tell you how much last night meant, it really was the party night I'd always wanted - you're all fabulous musicians and lovely people. Lady Marmalade and Superstition were superb!! Diane at the club said how pleasant you all were and she's had a fair few pass through there! I presume she did feed you at some point though?  So, enjoy your Sunday and thank you for such a memorable time!

As a result of such fun party we are now mates with Katherine and the BBC Welsh Orchestra and we enjoy our classical concerts from time to time ;)

Laura and Paul @ Stonehouse, Gloucester

"Hey guys! 
Thank you so much for an absolutely fantastic night - you guys were all that everyone was talking about at breakfast (well along with the rugby result of course! ;)) we'll be recommending you to everyone who'll listen! 
Thanks again, 
Laura and Paul"

Double winner that day, Wales won the rugby finals and we played at the Stonehouse in Stroud for Laura and Paul. Great gig, great crowd!

Cathryn & Chris @The Barn, Southerndown 29.08.15

"Hi guys
We loved the playing! It was fantastic and everyone commented how good you guys were! I think most people didn't stop dancing! I know you've already been recommended by one of our guests for their own relatives wedding!
Thanks again for a fab evening
Cathryn"


This wedding was really special for us. What a lovely couple and such a fun day! Also was one of the last days of summer. We had an amazing sunset overlooking the sea from the Barn while setting up.


The Barn is one of those venues we love to play. Stunning location, good sound and excellent set up. Check it out:

Lorraine & Clive @ Canada Lodge and Lake 09.08.15

"Hi guys,

 What can I say Soullottafunk were amazing, what a great performance. Every one made comments on how good you all were. If ever I was looking for a another band in the future, I would have no hesitation in re booking you all. Thank you so so much for helping make our day a very special one, so glad I chose you. From Clive and I we would like to wish you all, all the success in the world, you deserve it. Outstanding performance, thank you again. 
Best of luck for the future in all that you do.
Lorraine and Clive"


First time for us at this stunning venue. 100% recommended.

Wedding @ The Hilton Cardiff

@ Soul Lotta Funk we specialize in soul, funk and party tunes.

However sometimes couples ask us for certain songs that mean a lot to them as they want them performed on their first dance. This was the case of Shaun and Andrea who got married last July and asked us to cover "Your Song" by Elton John.

We loved it so much that months later we recorded a video of the cover. Check it out in this link:

Wedding in Narberth 07.07.15

Abby & Dan got us for their wedding. What a beautiful venue and what a nice couple. We all had a blast!

Please, take a minute to check The Grove, Narberth. Stunning location!:

"Hi guys!

Thanks for playing for us on Saturday night, we thought you were amazing and all our friends raved about how good you were 😊.
I was just gutted that I didn't get to dance to all your songs; people seemed to want to photograph and talk to the bride and groom a lot!!
Do you ever play public gigs? Would love to come and listen to you again.
Thanks
Abby&Dan"

Back in June 2015 we played a wedding for Steve & Maree.
Such a fun night, floor packed from beginning to end with a final surprise: we got friends of the couple on stage to do a couple of songs! It went down a storm :D

"Hi guys,
Will do. It was an amazing night and it all went perfectly! Have to say you guys absolutely smashed it and have received nothing but compliments about your performance. So sincerely, thank you.
Also great to be so accommodating for my cousin (who can sing) and my uni mates (who can't!) hope you lot had fun as well.
Thanks again,
Steve"
