November 8, 2022I had a surprise party for my wife, with family coming from Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, Tennessee, Idaho and many other places. I needed a band that could play my type of music, old school dance 60s, 70s and 80s. Well, when I found Soul Machine, I heard just a little piece of what they could play and was still kind of nervous because the party was still a few months away. That evening when my wife and I walked in the room we were blown away. I don't think I sat down the whole evening; Soul Machines music was that good. They kept the party rocking the whole night long. We were so impressed with their sound we just couldn't stop talking about how awesome they were. If by chance you need a band, I highly recommend Soul Machine for any party. I'm definitely going to use my newfound friends soon.
Thank you, Soul Machine, for the fun times.

September 16, 2015I had seen Soul Machine perform at a venue in Ventura. They played all my favorite R&B songs and their vibe was awesome. I hired them for my party during the holidays and they kept the party going. Laura's soulful voice is unstoppable and her musicians are top shelf all the way.
