The Toni James Band (aka The Floor Fillers) took the Show by storm
An experienced and highly talented band, with a repertoire in excess of 120 songs, across most genres and for all ages, ranging from the great classic soul, Motown and disco, to current pop, RnB and rock anthems.
The founder and lead singer is Toni James, a very polished, sophisticated and dynamic performer. Her resume includes 5 years as ‘stand-in singer’ on The Voice – to allow the judges to practise before the audience and contestants arrive – plus recent live performances on BBC Radio and support for soul legends Mica Paris, Solomon Burke and Ruby Turner.
The musicians are some of the best session players in the UK today, supporting Kylie, Queen, Mick Hucknall, Craig David, Spandau Ballet and many more. They’ve performed at venues/festivals such as Glastonbury, V Festival, M.E.N, Wembley, O2 Arena and Liverpool Echo Arena.
