Motown Magic

Motown Magic brings the golden era of Motown, soul, funk and disco to your event, with standout live vocals, tight musicianship and a proper party atmosphere from the first song to the last. We perform iconic classics from artists like Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin, The Jackson 5, Earth, Wind and Fire and more, and we tailor the setlist to your crowd so the dance floor stays full.

We offer flexible line-ups to suit your space, budget and venue restrictions, from an energetic duo or trio (ideal for sound limiters and smaller stages) through to a full band for a big show feel. We can also provide background music between sets and DJ style music to keep the flow going all night, so you do not have awkward gaps.

Clients choose us for our professionalism, clear communication and attention to detail. We arrive on time, set up efficiently, and work closely with venues and planners to make everything run smoothly. All equipment is PAT tested and we can provide public liability insurance documents on request.

Motown Magic was created out of a love for the timeless songs that bring people together. Motown and classic soul have a unique way of filling a dancefloor, because everyone knows the words, the groove is infectious, and the energy feels instantly uplifting.

Over time, the act grew into a flexible collective of musicians, allowing us to offer anything from an energetic duo for smaller spaces to a full band for a big show feel. The goal has always stayed the same: deliver a proper party atmosphere with great musicianship, warm stage presence, and a setlist that feels personal to every event.

Motown Magic is made up of professional musicians who perform regularly at weddings, private events and corporate functions throughout the UK. We have delivered hundreds of live shows in venues ranging from private homes and marquees to hotels, country estates, pubs, clubs and large event spaces.

We are known for keeping the dancefloor busy, reading the room, and making the night feel effortless for the client. We also have extensive experience working alongside venues, planners and DJs, and adapting to sound limiters, access restrictions and tight changeovers without compromising the atmosphere.

We typically perform for couples and families who want a lively, feel good soundtrack that gets every generation on the dancefloor. Most of our bookings are weddings (drinks reception, evening party, full day packages), milestone birthdays and anniversaries, plus corporate events, awards nights and Christmas parties.

We are a great fit for venues with tighter space or sound restrictions, because we can offer smaller line ups (duo or trio) that still sound full and high impact. Clients usually want classic Motown and soul with a few disco and party favourites, delivered with great vocals, strong crowd interaction, and a smooth, professional setup.

We take compliance and professionalism seriously. All equipment is PAT tested and we can provide Public Liability Insurance documentation on request.

We operate with clear contracts, reliable communication, and a structured planning process so venues and clients know exactly what to expect. We are also happy to share technical specs in advance and liaise directly with venue teams to ensure smooth access, setup and sound levels.
