which will be compared by
Funk Soul Brother is the UK’s best funk, soul and party band, guaranteed
to give you a feel-good vibe and leave you wanting more. Nine talented
musicians play a funktastic mixture of classic and contemporary tunes ranging
from James Brown and Stevie Wonder to Michael Jackson and Daft Punk.
Their repertoire takes you back and forth across generations of music and
timeless dance floor classics. If you weren’t able to catch them at ‘Music on the Launde’,
be sure to catch them here!
Sounds of Simon are a pitch perfect Simon and Garfunkel tribute act who
perform the full range of Simon and Garfunkel’s career together as well as drawing
extensively from Paul Simon’s solo career. The sounds of Simon are not only great
musicians; they also really act the part! The duo have got Simon and Garfunkel’s’
mannerisms, foibles and petty hatreds down to a tee. Their brilliant stage presence
is a winning act in their own right!
The Uppingham Jazz and Soul band are a community based band who perform
a range of swing, soul and jazz music who have performed at various charity
events and concerts in the local area. The band consists of amateurs
and -professional musicians who combine to make an exciting sound.
Having recently performed at the Oakham festival, the D’ukes of Rutland
are excited to be playing at Rutland Day. They are a ukulele group who
have performed at various places across the local area and further afield.
are a community group whose members are made up of local musicians
from all across the county and specialise in playing a mixture of popular
and fun music on ukeles and vocals!
The Rutland Youth Dance Academy will also be performing various
routines and Rutland Radio’s Rob Persani will be on hand to cover the
whole event live on the radio. www.rutlandradio.co.uk
