The Funkiest Live Act in Manchester!*
*Manchester’s finest venue the Band on the Wall
Our new single “Mr. No”
Our new single “Mr. No” is OUT NOW! Available on all streaming platforms and Bandcamp!
Made in Manchester, The Plimp Souls are a conga-crammed, horn-heavy, soul-stuffed nine-piece fuelled by boundless energy and a burning mission to put
the fun back into funk.
Blending the best of funk, jazz, soul, afrobeat and everything in-between, their raw, bouncing sound makes for a night to remember. Packing plenty of delicious decibels, they mix the rarest of classic grooves with belting originals to leave crowds hollering for more.
One night with The Plimp Souls will have you craving your next fix of flavoursome funk, so get your dancing shoes on! Just don't forget to tie your laces…
“This nine piece are a very welcome addition to the Manchester scene.”
— Craig Charles (6 Music)
"The Plimp Souls are regulars at Matt and Phred's, bringing their own brand of funk to the club.
They always get the party started!"
- Claire, manager, Matt and Phred’s Club, Manchester
