About Soul Searchers, The:

The Soul Searchers are an eight piece, classic Sixties' style Soul and R&B band complete with horns, dark suits, and energy to spare. The Soul Searchers play nothing but the greatest hits of that magical era including those tunes by Wilson Pickett, Sam and Dave, Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, and virtually every other major Rhythm and Blues artist of the day.
What sets The Soul Searchers apart from other bands is the level of musicianship and professional experience. The Soul Searchers band members are some of Nashville's top players, having played with such well known artists as Bonnie Raitt, Van Morrison, Taj Mahal, Wynonna, Dave Mason, Lyle Lovett, and Delbert McClinton. The Soul Searchers have also served as legendary guitarist Steve Cropper's back up band on numerous live performances.
Featuring male and female vocalists, guitar, keyboards, bass, drums, saxophone, and trumpet. The Soul Searchers serve up authentic and high spirited versions of all the best Soul and R&B hits of that golden age: "Mustang Sally", "Sittin' On the Dock of the Bay", "My Girl", etc. Looking sharp in suits and ties, the Soul Searchers are dedicated to inducing audiences to have as much fun listening and dancing to this great music as the Soul Searchers clearly has performing it. The Soul Searchers never fail to enjoy a wildly enthusiastic response, whether they are playing a corporate function, a wedding reception, private party, or appearing at one of Nashville's hottest nightclubs.

Band Reviews:

Soul Searchers were a big hit!
Johnny and his crew did a great job of keeping the music going and keeping the crowd on the dance floor.
I did not hear any negatives concerning the band.
I am glad they were able to have Mart Avant to play trumpet with them.

I would highly recommend this band to others.
Thanks,
Shane
