Austin variety band, Uptown Drive pays respect to the Queen Of Soul in our high-energy live show. Our professional musicians bring the heat with our upbeat concert rendition of Aretha Franklin’s 1967 smash hit “Respect!” This cover has now become a signature in packing the dance floor at weddings as well as corporate events. You’ll love the uplifted energy this song ignites within a room and how quickly people jump to their feet!
