Verdine White and John Paris giving us the insight on how to make it in this crazy industry!

Overview

The PĂC is a 9 piece professional recording act. They currently have a single out on the radio called, Love's Holiday. On that song, we have had the pleasure of recording with the legendary Verdine White and John Paris of Earth, Wind, and Fire. Not to mention Eddie M. of Sheila E. / Prince. Inbetween the recording of our original music, we are taking a limited amount of private event work.

We offer 3 different packages depending on how much of the live band you would like for the evening. If additional time is required, another affordable option is to have our DJ play music to fill in the time. Music consists of 90% top 40 covers and 10% original material.

True Crowd Pleasers

PSB has been one of the most professional cover bands I have worked with to date. From beginning to end PSB delivered a high energy performance that kept the crowd on their feet. I look forward to booking them again in the near future.

Awesome, entertaining, and professional!

We had Pacific Soul play at our wedding last month and were so impressed with them from the very beginning! Not only were they entertaining and fun, but they kept the party going from the moment they started their first set, all the way to the end of the night. No one wanted the party to stop! All throughout the evening, our guests repeatedly asked us where we found this gem of a band! I appreciated that Marc sent us their playlist ahead of time. We were able to peruse all of our choices and create somewhat of our own playlist based on this information. They tailored the night to us and our guests. We could not have been more impressed with their professionalism. They are all truly wonderful performers and anyone would be lucky to have them play at their venue. Thank you so much!!!

Great Customer Service

I contacted Pacific Soul for my company's year end dinner. They were really helpful and considerate on our budget and music selection. Also, they provided multiple packages when I asked if they could provide me with a quote, which was wonderful and helpful on deciding what we wanted for our event. Additionally, they provided a comprehensive vendors list when I asked them for entertainment recommendations.

I would recommend them if you are interested in having a live band for your event.

Pacific Soul Band Review

I hired Pacific Soul Band for the my 50th birthday party in June 2013. They were very professional and showed up early to setup to make sure everything worked out as we had a bit of a type spot in our backyard for them to perform. It all worked out. They are a very professional band, friendly and fun band. All of the songs they played were totally awesome!! I couldn't have asked for anything better - as they played all the music I love!! The band totally made my party alot of fun! All my guests kept telling me how great they were! They were totally entertaining and glad I hired this band for my party and would recommend them to anyone!!
