Saw Return II Soul at
Glenwood Oaks Restaurant last night...they were really really good. Look for them and go listen.
So very entertaining playing such a great variety of favorites. I could have danced through the morning. Very talented group!!
Had the opportunity to see Return II Soul at Pete Miller's in Wheeling, what an experience. Their sound was great, played really tight, and made the crowd smile, dance, and sing. From Motown to Disco to Lynyrd Skynyrd, they provided a great night of sound, soul, and sophistication.
Response from Return II Soul:
We LOVE playing at Pete Miller's Wheeling. The crowd & staff ( Samantha & Sue) are Great. Thanks Mike for the review, see you again soon.
