Margaret Keys Artist Profile
| ||||
This act was set up in 2007 by a group of musicians with years of professional experience. The band specialises in classic funk/soul with musicians that can deliver a captivating performance.
Their set has been designed to get audiences dancing right from the first song and includes tunes by James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Tower of Power and The Average White Band as well as some classic 60's soul and disco. They also regularly update their repertoire with modern material by the likes of Amy Winehouse, Mark Ronson, Duffy and Jools Holland.
They can offer various line up options; the most popular being the 6 piece that consists of vocals, keys, guitar, bass, drums, trumpet and sax. This can be increased all the way up to a 12 piece that includes 2 backing vocalists/dancers and a 5 piece horn section.

TESTIMONIALS
"We would like to say a huge thank you for the fantastic music you and the band provided for our wedding, it truly made it a very special occasion. So many people have commented on the music and it was so nice to see so many people dancing all night. We hope you enjoyed the evening too. Please pass on our thanks to rest of the band."
Anna & Craig
"Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU and let you know how much we loved having you as our wedding band. You really were outstanding and absolutely everyone loved you (people have asked for contact details so hopefully will be in contact with you soon!) from our first dance right through your music selection between sets and through to the very end. You even got people who never dance up on the dance floor-very impressive. We have go to say that I think your singer broke a few hearts throughout the evening including Emma's brother (one of the ushers who decided he was completely in love with her by the end of the evening!! The other ushers also fell for her but are unfortunately-or fortunately for her-married!)
Thank you so much for making our celebrations better than we had ever imagined. The whole evening was truly brilliant and we can only thank you for being such a huge part of it. We will definitely contact you with any other parties we may decode to have as loads of people have commented on how much of a good time they had so therefore we feel pressure to keep up the trend of throwing the best parties! You really were truly amazing and we wish we actually got to speak to you guys more as the whole day went far too quickly. We will be in touch in the future. Looking forward to partying again soon-please put us on any mailing lists for any live gigs you do."
Emma & Dan Sykes
"Thank you so much for playing at our wedding 3rd September. We got back from our honeymoon with so many great memories of the day, thank you for be an amazing part of it. The music was incredible, even better than we could possibly have imagined, and kept us dancing into the small hours. Everyone has commented how fantastic the band was and they enjoyed every moment. Thank you for being so easy to work with and making our day such a success."
Andy & Nicole Keightley
"They made the evening, not only for my clients who danced and danced and danced until we practically had to cut the power to get them off the dance floor and into bed, but also for me as I've never worked with such a great group of fabulous, easy-going musicians! Their playlist is superb, the sound they produce is huge, and I can thoroughly recommend them for your next party."
Emma Chesters, Director, EC Events Ltd
"The band recently played at an event that we arranged for 1,400 guests and they went down a storm! They really helped to enhance the perfect party atmosphere and were a wonderfully professional band to work with, both in the run up to the event and on the night. We will definitely be booking them again for future events."
Nicky Allison, Progressive Events
"Just wanted to say Thank you so much for providing such an outstanding show for us at our wedding; the music was fantastic and we’ve had so much positive feedback from our friends and family."
Louise Chadder, Wedding Client, Bournemouth
"A fantastic band, makes us feel like we’re downstairs at Casablancas! (Famous Brighton funk/soul club)"
Mark Sampson, Channel 4
"To anyone thinking of booking the band: Don’t hesitate. The band is great. I have booked them for two parties and on both occasions they were intrinsic in making the events highly enjoyable occasions. They were efficient and professional when dealing with the booking, and exuberant and fun in the performance. Their choice of repertoire was great and they very quickly had everyone dancing. I very much hope to use them again in the future but am aware I will have to book them very far in advance."
