We send out an e-mail newsletter a few times a month called The Soda Fountain. Here you'll find some amusing Soda stories and all the latest news from Soda Land. Just type in your e-mail address below and you'll stay current with all the Soda news that's fit to print!

In SODA you'll find exactly what you need to get the party started. Comprised of members from some of Chicago's most beloved bands including The Only Sons, and The Loose Screws, this all star line up captures the heart and soul of one of the most diverse play lists you'll find anywhere.

What's your flavor? Because you'll get everything all the time with Soda. From Dave Matthews to Cee Lo Green, and from John Mellencamp to Black-Eyed Peas, this band can do it all. Three lead singers, each with distinctive styles, work to bring authenticity to all your favorite songs. The possibilities are endless. Classic Rock, 80's New Wave, Motown, Disco, Hip-Hop, Reggae, Alternative--the list goes on and on.

No matter what the occasion--weddings, corporate events, private parties--Soda has the tunes to get your guests on the dance floor and keep them there the whole night long. In 2008, Soda showcased at the Suburban Parks And Recreation convention and the enthusiastic response from the SPRA members (a standing ovation, supposedly a first) led to more bookings than any other band at the convention (Soda continues to be one of the most heavily booked bands in this market through the summer of 2011).

Soda has appeared at many famous Chicago locations including Arlington Park racetrack, and at U.S. Cellular Field for the White Sox. This past year Soda helped to welcome in the New Year at Chicago’s landmark Signature Room on the 95th floor of the John Hancock Building (where they first performed New Year’s Eve 2009 and have been engaged to return this New Year’s Eve as well). The band has performed at the Renaissance Center in Schaumburg for the Community Bankers Association of Illinois, where they shared the evening with nationally recognized swing band The Cherry-Poppin’ Daddys (of “Zoot Suit Riot” fame). And most recently Soda has performed at Buckingham Fountain for The Annual Bank One Shamrock Shuffle road race, and in the Ballroom at Navy Pier for St. Viator High School’s Night Of The Lion Annual Fundraiser event.

In 2010 Soda was awarded a Bride’s Choice Award from the Wedding Wire website in recognition as one of Chicago’s favorite wedding ensembles. Soda is a full-time professional band and you can see them perform any weekend of the year at some of Chicagoland's favorite clubs.

Rob, We just wanted to thank you again for giving us an awesome show at our wedding on October 15. From what I've heard there were multiple people asking for your cards afterwords. I know we have received a lot of compliments about you guys since we have been back from our honeymoon. Thanks again for being so accommodating with our wedding and the last minute half hour of overtime. Thanks also for allowing the Maid of Honor to play the tambourine (She was really hoping for this). Hopefully you guys enjoyed the night as much as we did. Thanks again.
Scott & Diane - October 15, 2011

Thanks for making our wedding reception so special. You made the night! We look forward to continuing to be groupies and catch your shows. We still have yet to find a better band than Soda. Thanks again.
Elizabeth and Zach

Hi Rob, I can't thank you enough for making our wedding so special. It was perfect. You and the band were absolutely fantastic. Everyone has not stopped talking about how good you were and how much fun it was. Thank you for emceeing the evening. You did it with such class. We loved every minute of the evening and you helped to make that happen. If anyone ever wants to contact someone I would be more than happy to give a recommendation.
Betsy McAvoy - Barrington

Hi Rob! Now that the dust has settled, I just wanted to thank you again for making the long journey to my wedding! We really loved the whole night and all your music. You were a great emcee, I couldn’t tell the ipod music from the played stuff! It all sounded perfect! And loved the extra's like the tambourine etc.... it was just awesome and we've had a lot of compliments! Thanks again!
Tammy D., Milwaukee, WI

Rob-- Thanks for everything. The reception was a huge success, and everyone has complimented you guys over and over.  You really made the night. 
Kate M., Wauconda

We had so much fun with this band that we booked them a year ahead for next year's party! Soda really set the stage for our summer beach bash by creating a fun, lively musical tone. They showed up on time, were organized and professional, then turned us loose to rock and roll all night. In particular, they really took the kids in hand, working them up from singing into a full conga line. The open air, evening stage at the beach was a perfect compliment to this spirited band.....you could tell how much fun it was by the number of boats on the lake that swung by to enjoy the show!
Lynne J. - Crystal Lake

Hi Scott, (Bass-Schuler Entertainment)
Got it in! Literally had the members of the band gathered around the computer looking at Weather.com's radar and speculating on where the rain would go! Made the call to stay outside and a beautiful night it was! So many compliments about the band, I really appreciate how hard Rob and the band work and how well they play!! Soda rocks!

Wow! What can I say? I can't thank you enough for making my husband's birthday celebration the best ever. Since the night of our party, our friends, family and the locals of Crossroads of Ivanhoe are still talking about how great the band was. Everyone enjoyed the music so much that our guests started dancing at the very first song and never stopped! Thank you so much and we'll look forward to seeing you again!
