I have been playing onboard Cruise Ships since the year 2016 and it has been the adventure of my lifetime. With the Soul Band I have a blast every time I get to go on stage and perform the evergreen songs that brings happiness to peoples hearts. Together with Ellen, Cleiton, Ana & Henrique we are more than just a band, we are a family away from home
Ellen Soulé
Bass player
Hey there, I’m Ellen, the bass player of this amazing band since 2021. Music was always present in my life, moving through my body. I always loved dancing and tried different instruments, but when I found the bass we just became instant best friends. The last years with The Soul Band have been a blast and I’m looking forward to all the stages we can light on fire together!
Cleiton Ely

I started playing drums when I was 16 and I was hooked by it. I worked with Brazilian bands and big instrumental formations. Since the year 2021 I play with the Soul Band performing on Cruise Ships for passengers from all over the world.
I’m grateful to have the opportunity to turn my passion into my livelihood and to improve my skills by providing energy and creativity to the team
Ana Luiza Vier

I’m a singer with experience in bands in Brazil and I joined the Soul Band in 2025. For me, music is a very genuine form of expression, through which people sing, dance and connect on a deep level, sharing emotions and experiences that transcend cultural and social barriers. With the Soul Band, I’m excited to create unforgettable moments and inspire my audience with the passion and energy that music provides me.
