The live show is dynamic, visual, authentic and accurate, capturing all the energy to truly recreate the atmosphere and brilliance of the movie, with music such as Mustang Sally, Hard To Handle, and Take Me To The River, plus many classic Soul hits too.
The Kommitments share the same commitment to their music, with that instantly recognisable horn section and that sweet soul rhythm section, on their ongoing journey’s they undoubtedly continue where the film left off, still spreading the word of Ottis Reading, Wilson Picket, and the other apostles of Soul, and in doing so enables us all to experience the essence of…….Sweet Soul Music.
As in the film, the band come from all walks of life, dedicating themselves to becoming ‘the hardest working band’ of their genre and it’s that dedication and passion for Soul music, that captures the audience from the moment the band explode onto the stage.
