"I just wanted to say thank you so much for your help in coordinating the Prophets of Swing to play for our wedding last Saturday. The music was really spectacular and we were bowled over by their incredible talent. The special arrangement they prepared of ‘In The Mood’ was gorgeous and made the day even more special for us. Many of the guests specifically commented on how incredible the music was and they were all thoroughly impressed! I would recommend them to absolutely everyone because they really are so talented and a pleasure to be around. James and I have enquired about attending one of their performances in the Croydon area, as we would love to sit down and properly listen to them, when we’re not busying about with guests! Thank you again to yourself and to the band for making the day so magical."

"We had such a great time. Ned did a great job leading us in the dances. I should really say "exhausting us", but the number of people coming back for more showed how much they loved it. Each band-member is a fine musician in their own right but blended together they were fabulous. I would not hesitate to book them again."

"We came across Swing Gitan at the Nottingham Contemporary and were both taken by their energetic and uplifting sound delivered in a skilled and playful fashion. Since then we have had the pleasure of seeing quite a few of their gigs and never been disappointed and so when we were considering who to book for our wedding last august the choice was easy. We wanted music for music lovers that people could also dance to and were no disappointed. The whole process of booking the band and arranging the specifics as well as asking them to learn the Waltz that we intended to dance to was just really straight forward and pleasurable which was certainly helped by Elliott’s easygoing ways and quiet confidence that this would turn out the way we had hoped. We feel very lucky and blessed to have had the good fortune together such good people for our wedding occasion and the presence of Swing Gitan was a large part of that. Indeed, it was a testament to the success of the band that people of all backgrounds and ages loved their performances and demonstrated this through dancing, shouting and cheering throughout the night. Needless to say, we would highly recommend this band to anyone seeking a great sounding and quirky gypsy jazz band! "

"We just wanted to say big thank you for amazing performance the band has done which made our Big Day even more special. The band was fantastic, playing great gypsy jazz songs that everyone enjoyed and we had even our dance to "Sing sing sing", which was amazing. You fitted so well to the ambient of Pembroke Lodge and I would definitely recommend you to any couple who needs some vintage elegant touch to their Wedding Reception."

"I just wanted to say such a huge thank you for the amazing performance that you gave. You were so friendly and willing to help in any way that any nervousness about getting up to dance was immediately dismissed. I was extremely apprehensive prior to the night about how the dancing would go down, especially with my two left feet! However my worrying was in vain, what a fantastic night of dancing it was, so inclusive that any and all can get up and get involved, aged 5 or 105. You need no experience or talent, just listen to the brilliant calling, it’s all simple moves but when it comes together with all your friends and family on the night, prepare to be amazed. I can not thank the band enough for making our Wedding such a fantastic night, I have never seen so many people thoroughly enjoying themselves all at once. I can sincerely recommend the Black Velvet Band for any social occasion, your expectations will be exceeded."
