51 Soul Boston Music Dance Band Plays Jazz, Soul And Funk

By Christa Jarvis


In this day and age, music and musical genres have expanded greatly. The 51 Soul Boston Music Dance Band plays Jazz, Soul, Funk, R&B and Mowtown is just one example of this reality. The band, being one of the most varied bands in the New England area is quickly becoming quite popular. While New England is not always known for live music venues, this band is changing the scene. While most often playing weddings and other special events, the group also has gigs in Salem, MA and other areas in and around New England on a regular basis.

In addition to playing weddings and special events, the group also now plays at local clubs and venues in the area. Most recently having obtained a month long residence in Salem, MA at Victoria Station and having performed at the renowned Ryles jazz club in Boston on more than one occasion. The group is also open to playing to a diverse audience including those in the LGBT communities.

Being open to playing different types of ceremonies and weddings, the group has a bright future. Although, while there is a standard list of covers, those desiring specific music for an event may want to talk to the players well in advance. If given enough time, the musicians are generally more than willing to learn new music.

Some songs covered on a regular basis are Spanish Joint by D'Anegelo, Apple Tree by Erykah Badu, Delivered by Stevie Wonder and many others. A full list can be found on the band website. While these are standard covers, other music can often covered upon request. If a song cannot be covered on the spot, chances are the group will be more than pleased to learn and cover the song at future events.

Soul 51 has a few examples of the type of energy and sound provided at weddings and special events. While the videos are few and far between, each gives a great example. As such, those looking to hire the group for special events may want to view these videos in advance to gain a better idea of the band's presence and style.

The group is now also playing gigs at different clubs and venues in and around New England. If the group is playing anywhere nearby, the musicians hope folks will stop by and check them out. After which, individuals can then continue to catch local gigs, or hire the group for special occasions.

When desiring to hire the group for a specific date, time and location, it is often best to do so well in advance. To do so, email the booking manager on the website regarding availability and price. All in all, Soul 51 has a great reputation for playing amazing music at weddings and other events. Still, each individual, couple or music manager must decide which style works best for various events and venues.

51 Soul also appreciates fans who can understand having to make minor revisions due to previously booked schedules. There are often two choices when desired entertainment is not available for an event. One, change the date of the event. The other, find alternative entertainment. While 51 Soul would love to play as many events as possible, the group also understands when and where schedules just cannot or do not align.
