LI band decisions

I am leaning toward using David Clark and the Renegades. However, I wanted to see if anyone has seen Arcadia, the other paramount band. If anyone has experience with both, is there any feedback on which one is better? I am also unsure about the decision because I am not positive how well they do Motown/soul. Is there another band I should consider that doesn't exceed $10,000? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

    Soul Revival!!  They played our wedding and were awesome!!  They sound great playing Motown/Soul/Funk and are well under $10,000.  I know they are having a showcase soon because a co-worker of mine is going :-)  Their website is: www.soulrevivalband.com  I highly recommend them!
    HTH!

    I am booked with David Clark and the Renegades!  I don't think you can do better for the price... my sister used them at her wedding 4 years ago and we had a great time at the wedding.  They have changed lead singers since then, so we went to check them out at a showcase and were beyond thrilled with the new female vocals.  HIGHLY recommend them!!

    Thanks! At Courtney: Does Soul Revival play all other genres well too?

    jtgelfand - Yes!  They played all kinds of different types of music at our wedding.  I remember that they had a pretty extensive song list but we also requested a few songs for our first dance and parent dances that weren't on there.  Justin was super easy to work with which made everything so much easier!

    747 Orchestra.  We used them and so did 4 of our friends.  They made our reception amazing.  Their songs sound EXACTLY like the originals and our guests never stopped dancing. I know we paid less than that and were well worth the money.  They have great reviews on Yelp and other sites.  Everyone in the band also sings.  :)   747orchestra.com
