• Stone Foundation

  Brilliant venue for a brilliant band, they started with Beverley which is an old song but a classic then moved onto the last 2 albums, they are a really good band live and this is the 3rd time I have seen them.

  A really tight set of musicians who are very talented the string section really adds some strength and the bass is ever present to provide the backing with a very good guitarist and singer add it all together and its a perfect mix.

  The addition of 2 backing singers adds a lot to the overall sound and I cannot state how good a gig this was, I had a smile on my face throughout.

  I cannot believe this band are not bigger (well I can actually it’s because of s**t like X Factor) if you haven’t listened to them I implore you to do so as you will be hooked, I have encouraged several of my friends and a couple were with me on Friday.

  The venue is great as it’s quite small and intimate and afterwards they open the Ska Bar and the band came up to meet and chat which was a bonus. You couldn’t meet a more down to earth nice set of lads.

  Overall a great night, a few too many beers but what a band, get on it people.

• In a world of divides and conflict, Stone Foundation are the perfect antidote. Tuneful, soulful, musical, lyrical, and very danceable (even runnable, if that's your thing!)

  They're a veritable cocktail of so many sounds and styles its tempting to think they are not their own band. They are. So refreshing to experience a band of real talent, genuine cohesion and who not only look like they are enjoying themselves but actually are.

  When so many acts are faux and/or afraid to reference their influences you've got to love a band who give credit where its due and know just who they are, where they are and what they are trying to do: make you smile, dance and forget your woes.

  Liked them from when I first saw them in Delamere in June. And again in Edinburgh. So now I've paid to see them for themselves, bought the album (on vinyl and CD) and would very happily do so again, as would my friends. They've been one of the musical highlights of my (very difficult) year. Thank you!

• This was one of the most uplifting and pleasurable gigs I've seen in a long time. The band are consummate players, but deliver a show that exudes the joy they feel in their craft. The bass, drums, horn section, keyboards groove, jab, and swirl emphatically. Congas add essential spice and propulsion to the soul/jazz/funk rhythms. Extrovert singer/guitarist Neil Jones is the focal point for a set that draws heavily from the excellent new record 'A Life Unlimited', mixed with choice tunes from the back catalog.

  Jones has no trouble motivating the crowd through some tricky 'audience participation' vocal contributions. His only gaffe was introducing the trumpet player as baritone sax player, which just widened the grin that was permanently on his face. And big grins on faces is how everyone left the venue. Stone Foundation are a 'must see' live experience. Take the earliest opportunity to do so.

• What a night !!!!

  It started with a great set from

  Steve Pilgrim (Paul Weller’s Drummer)

  He played guitar & sang to open the gig.

  Then on came Stone Foundation at the Rescue Rooms Nottingham.

  The boys played an extended set & the atmosphere was electric as was the performance.

  One of the great small room venues which brings together the audience & the band for a SPECIAL night.

  The support for the band is growing but having said that the boys were happy to stay & chat at the end of the gig.

  Happy to sign vinyl or cd’s & have photos take etc, so too did Steve Pilgrim.

  Hope the boys can arrange a gig at The Flower Pot next year in Derby ???

• Good gig at Admiral Bar, Glasgow. Third time I've seen Stone Foundation live but previous gigs were better. Paul Weller's influence is evident, as the band sounded reminiscent of Style Council on more than one song. Pete Williams' supports was disappointing, possibly because he does not have a strong enough sound to lend credibility to a solo acoustic set, and might benefit from a backing band.

• Absolutely brilliant night from start to finish. Stone Foundation are the best live band I've ever seen. I love their music but seeing them perform live is just something else!
