 Welcome to the home of Soul Medix, a London Ontario based band that focuses on the sounds of Motown and Soul music with a Bluesy feel. Lead singer Shelly MacDermid will carry you on a musical journey critics have claimed comparable to that of a mixture between Aretha Franklin and Etta James. Our energetic group has a passion for live performances and we're expanding the band to include sax, trumpet & keyboards to capture the true essence of the Motown era. We provide entertainment for small functions right up to large arena gatherings. Indoors or out, Soul Medix is a perfect choice for your dance, party, wedding, nightclub or special gathering. Book us now and make your function a complete party success.
