OUR FOCUS:  

Often people will say to us " I watched your video.... but I would love to see more of the band".    I truly understand that you want to see more of the band but there is a possibility that you are missing the most important parts.

1. Our focus is on our Audience                                                            We love to see people dancing and enjoying the music that they hear from us.   Our goal is to ensure that the audience is totally engaged to our music variety and flavor.
2. Our Music variety                                                                                      This video clip is live, unedited and not studio process.  This means that you get a real good indication and a true experience of what we sound like live.  Our music variety and song execution are the strengths behind our sound as well it provides the blue print to total audience inclusion and success.  Audience quote summarized " Wow we really love everything that you play, you have exceeded our music expectations".
3. Spontaneity                                                                                                    All of our shows have a unique and special band / audience experience. Each show creates its own atmosphere in which it is an one of a kind show.  Why?  Often when we are performing in front of an audience, the energy that is transferred between the  Soul 2 The Bone Band and audience inspires creativity and commands audience participation.  A good example is the video on this page that provides you with a glimpse of us sharing the love of the music.

"Hello John,  
 
Wow, that was fantastic!!  We had a blast with the Soul 2 the Bone Band, thanks so much to everyone involved at our event!  Please use this note as a testimonial if you wish on behalf of me and my family.   If there are ever any doubters about the quality of entertainment that you provide, please have them call me directly at 708-826-6973  or email me dmurfman1@att.net and I will be glad to share my very positive experience with them.  You were professional from the moment I met you and that continued up until the day of the performance at my home for my son’s graduation.  I have never done anything like this and it is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.  You and the band made our family’s grad party  event really special and  you created life-long memories in just a single day.
 
Beyond the great music you provided, you are a very upbeat and happy person to speak to.  The words of encouragement that you gave to my son from the stage at the end of the show were just great and I know he appreciated your kind words.  You are just the best! 
 
I wish you continued success.  Please tell the band that they have  a whole bunch of new fans because my phone has been going crazy with attendees telling me how great the party and your awesome band was.  Thanks again for all you and the band did to make that important day so outstanding and FUN!
 
Your friend,
 
Dave Murphy  
Northbrook IL"
