Britain's What's On Event Guide
MOTOWN & MORE With Natalie Williams Soul Family
After their spectacular sell-out 2024 and 2025 shows, we’re thrilled to welcome back the sensational Motown and More to the festival in 2026.
Hailed as one of the UK’s finest Motown and Soul acts, Soul Family’s Motown and More captures the very heart of soul and R&B. One listen and you’ll know exactly why they’ve earned their reputation…
“Natalie was all dazzling smiles and high-kneed strut as she belted out numbers from the album, swooping high a la Aretha. This was hard-hitting Earth, Wind and Fire stuff, full of funky momentum!” — Evening Standard
Fronted by the powerhouse that is Natalie Williams(ex Incognito and MOBO nominated vocalist), the group delivers a glittering line-up of soul classics from legends like Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes, and The Four Tops. Each performer is a world-class musician, with credits alongside Amy Winehouse, Robbie Williams, Jacob Collier, Basement Jaxx and more. But when it comes to soul, this is where their passion truly shines—and the Motown & More experience proves it every time.
Natalie Williams’ The Soul Family Band, is joined by an incredible group of regular singers (and artists in their own right): Vula (Basement Jaxx), Sharlene Hector (Basement Jaxx), Brendan Reilly (Disclosure), Ladonna Harley Peters (Emeli Sande, Sam Smith, Corinne Bailey Rae), Annabel Williams (Ceelo Green, Alison Moyet, Rumer) and Vanessa Haynes (Incognito).
The Atlantic Horns (Mark Brown on sax & Ben Edwards on trumpet) have played with the likes of Amy Winehouse, Girls Aloud, Basement Jaxx, Mark Ronson and regularly tour with Robbie Williams.
The rhythm section is made up Robin Mullarkey on bass (Zero7, Roisin Murphy, Laura Mvula, ESKA), Martyn Kaine on drums (Kyle Eastwood, Nitin Sawhney, Jocelyn Brown), Phil Peskett on keys (Moloko, Cinematic Orchestra, Nik Kershaw) and Ben Jones on guitar (Pixie Lott, Kelly Rowland, Jazmine Sullivan, Westlife and the VOICE band)…
