THE MEMPHIS SOUL ORCHESTRA

These are the nights you just need once in a while. Every song is a hit that brings back a flood of memories. The band is a group of fun loving, master musicians that feel this music and execute it with perfection. The mood is great and the night just lets you cut loose and enjoy life, music, community and pure joy!! We haven't seen these cats in over a year and they've got a new bunch of classics to bring to life!

This will be a night to remember for a LOOONG time. A romping, stomping tribute to the Southern Soul Sound that ruled the Earth in the 1960's. During that time the cities of Detroit, Memphis, Macon and Muscle Shoals were home to the sounds that made the whole world dance! These cities were the wellsprings of Sam & Dave, Otis Redding, Al Green, Wilson Pickett, Percy Sledge, Solomon Burke, The Staples Singers, Booker T and The MG's and so, so many more. Featuring the dynamite vocals of Rob Jockel, a relentless rhythm section and a horn section led by some of New England's most accomplished players, the Memphis Soul Spectacular is an 8 piece orchestra that's gonna blow your mind and take you back to the time when this music was king of the airwaves.

The Band:
Rob Jockel - vocals
Mike Roth - vocals, guitar
John 'Bubbs' Brown - bass
Ken Fischer - piano, Hammond organ
Pat Casey - trumpet
John Smayda - saxophone
Tom Smith - drums
