The Motown experience: This is a classy, high-energy, solo show that spotlights some of Motown’s best-loved material. Featuring all time greats from favourite Motown artists such as Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross and the Supremes, The Temptations and Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, this show is designed to get you on the dance floor and keep you there!



Shola provides all the grace, glitz and glamour required of a true diva. She takes to the stage wearing beautiful custom-designed evening gowns and truly looks the part with her graceful silhouette, lovely smile, beehive hairdo and diamante jewellery.

Shola’s vocals have been described as sounding like “chocolate soul”. She has a powerful, smooth yet expressive voice which attracts positive feedback wherever she sings. With a warm, inviting stage presence and charming persona, it’s hard not to be enthralled by her performance.

A favourite part of the show is when Shola invites two of the audience up on stage to be “The Supremes”. With their own microphones and tambourines, Shola runs through a dance routine with them before the “backing singers” perform a song with her, much to the delight of everyone watching.

The Complete Experience: We can now offer an additional set featuring classic jazz hits. This is ideal for the drinks reception or as a cool introduction to the evening celebrations. A suggested itinerary would be 1 x 45 minute set of cool jazz followed by an hour of Motown classics with a break in between.

Shola spent eight years living in the United States, where she began working with one of the world's top vocal coaches, Seth Riggs (Stevie Wonder, Natalie Cole and the late Luther Vandross are among his many star pupils). She has continued this relationship with Seth and his team of coaches - indeed, she will be returning to Los Angeles this summer 2009 to spend a further ten days working with them.

Shola has performed at gigs supporting stars such as Paul Young and Tony Hadley and has entertained at many weddings and corporate functions in front of audiences as large as 15,000 people.

Shola is now touring the UK with the Motown show - How Sweet It Is and has also just featured in Real Lives Magazine.

A typical performance is for 1 x 60 or 2 x 45 minute sets. Full PA, lighting and a great Motown backdrop is also provided.
