Soul Searching Band, is a Seattle based group that focuses its attention on legendary singers like Aretha Franklin and Elvis. By recreating their music and artistry, audiences all over the Pacific Northwest have taken delight in viewing these shows that always end with a standing ovation.
Our singer, Lizzie Sunchine, has spent years honing her talent and stage presence causing her to win hearts and ovations with each encounter. Our Elvis, Steve Sogura, was the winner of the pro category at the 2018 Elvis festival. It is hard to find another Elvis impersonator who is as energetic, entertaining and funny as he is. On the top of that, he is also an excellent singer who has performed in “legend shows” all over the United States, including Las Vegas.
Each showcase of entertainment is supported by an 8-piece band: horn section, bass, guitar, keyboard and drums. This melodious tenured group of musicians have played locally, nationally as well as internationally. The best to support the best.
Depending on your needs, we can do a 90-minute show of Aretha, or Elvis, or both legends together (over 2 hours).
