From their commanding stage presence to powerhouse singing and tight musicianship, Soul Expressions knows how to have a good time – and make sure that everyone in the audience does too. With a crowd-pleasing list of songs and styles, the band covers everything from Motown and classic rock-n-roll to your favorite tunes from the 80s, 90s, 2000s and today, along with a few other gems thrown in to keep the celebration on its feet.
