Nice N Funky

SOVIREZ

Greenock Funk and soul band Sovirez formed in 2019, quickly honing an infectious sound and establishing themselves as a high energy and impactful live act. Sovirez have had regular radio play (BBC Introducing Scotland, BBC Rapal, Amazing Radio UK/USA plus many more), and their single “Stadium Heights” was chosen as single of the week in April 2022 for BBC Radio Scotland’s “The Afternoon Show”. 

The band have had notable support slots with the likes of Callum Beattie, Wrest, Mickey 9s, Brownbear, Blue Rose Code & Sam Greenfield, as well as sold out headline shows at small venues across Scotland.

2025 sees the band playing at festivals and shows with further single releases planned for throughout the year. 

Sovirez is a love letter to classic funk & soul with all the energy of modern dance and pop. This combination results in songs that will stick in your ear for a long time and a live show unlikely to be forgotten.
