The YMCA loves Rock N' Soul!! They have played for the YMCA Gala for the last two years and they are just so much fun. You can't help yourself....you just have to dance.
We received lots of compliments on how awesome the band was, and the dance floor was crowed all night. Everyone really had a good time!
Response from Rock N' Soul:

ROCK 'N SOUL
Michael, Richard, Andy and CJ rocked my daughter's baby shower. They got to our house right on time, set up and were ready to rock out. We have several accomplished musicians in the family that joined in on the instrumental side. Many bands will not allow that. Furthermore we had some terrible family vocalists but the band let us join in on multiple songs. All four band members had great personalities and were high energy. Multiple oncores when the humidity was stifling. I highly recommend Rock N' Soul for any event. They even played unscripted songs. Our family to this day still email and talk about the blast we had. Our family memories would not be complete without the band. Great job gents and any future parties in Slidell will definitely include Rock N' Soul.

Mike is known for singing many genres of music including: Classic Soul, Rock, Alternative, Country, and Ballads. He studied voice and music theory at Southeastern Louisiana University. The name Brother Mike was given to him at a vocal competition by a representative from Cash Money Records. Mike worked with New Orleans recording artist Jimmy Jules in the band Southern Cookin as the lead singer performing Classic R&B on Bourbon Street at Sing-Sing and The Blues Club. He has also played local festivals as the lead singer of the BCSN Band.

Richard Gaspard - has been playing guitar for over 40 years He’s been rockin’ the New Orleans area in local cover bands for over 30 years. Richard is one of the original members of The Buck Town Allstars. His experience really shows, from the moment he touches his guitar, as heads always turn in the crowd during his solos. He’s played Bourbon Street, local festivals, and clubs/bars.
