Repertoire:
Over the years, we have built a very large repertoire of over 150 classic R&B songs, primarily from the 60’s Motown era through the funk and soul of the great horn bands of the 70’s and 80’s.
Here is a partial summary of our current playlist – most of these are products of our master arranger Steve Hannah, giving each song that special TOP CITY vibe. TOP CITY can even put together custom tunes for your special event!
