DC Soul features phenomenal vocalist & DC legend Skip Mahoney, who is best known for his chart topping hits with The Casuals.
DC soul is the hottest Classic R&B/Soul band in the Washington DC area. Our players have played this music EXCLUSIVELY for all of their lives. We cover artists from Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight and Etta James to Wilson Pickett, Al Green, Arthur Conley, James Brown and Sinatra ... check out the playlist.
Our players have traveled the world as members of Wilson Pickett's touring band, The Flamingos, Gene Chandler, Sam Moore (of Sam and Dave), Peaches & Herb, and many other Classic R&B legends. Our hip & savvy horn section adds an exciting dimension to the band. We specialize in playing, 60's soul, Classic R&B, Motown, Stax & Swing. The main reason people love that sound is because virtually ALL the groups of those eras had big fat horn sections! You'll love the authentic 60's vibe and raw sound.
