10 of Soul

Why fight the fair crowds when you can have a “Soulful” Saturday right here? On August 8, we are bringing the heat with one of the Quad Cities’ most beloved musical powerhouses: 10 of Soul.

While other folks are paying for parking and tickets to see some band at the fair across town, you could be right here in the Wood—for free—experiencing a 10-piece wall of sound that defines high-energy music. 10 of Soul is a masterclass in funk, soul, and R&B, featuring a blistering horn section, a tight-as-a-drum rhythm unit, and powerhouse vocals. From the classic grooves of Earth, Wind & Fire and Tower of Power to funky, original arrangements, they deliver a performance that isn’t just a concert—it’s a full-blown dance party.
