"We booked Superfunked as a 6-piece for our summer ball and they were perfectly professional, well prepared and very pleasant to work with. Most importantly they took the event from mellow to upbeat and swinging without any need for prompts or direction. Fantastic execution and lovely singing. "

"We just wanted to say a massive thanks to the Band for playing at our Great Gatsby Party on Friday last week! They were amazing! Everyone really loved them and wished they could have stayed for longer! What a great mix of old vs. new Gatsby and great singer and musicians would definitely recommend them!"

"The Kings of Hot Swing played at our wedding reception, we loved the performance and style. The guys really made the evening special and played our first dance music, which they learned especially for us. All of our guests commented on how good the music was and how it created the perfect relaxed and fun atmosphere to our wedding reception. Thanks so much, it was a perfect end to our wedding day."

"This was their first indoor concert and the first time we've had a Jazz Concert. They were excellent! A lovely bunch of talented young men led by Michael Grant - an excellent clarinet player. From their first number as they walked down the aisle to their final number they had everyone's feet tapping and hands clapping and everyone enjoyed every minute. It was all very light hearted and thoroughly enjoyable night, so much so that we're hoping to have another concert in 2018. Thank you all so much. "

"'Swing Gitan UK joined the Nottingham Jazz Orchestra on the bill of the Christmas Jazz Fest last weekend. Having seen Swing Gitan a number of times, I have always been massively impressed with the musical and technical ability of all members of the band. Their music would sound at home on the streets or riverbank walkways of Paris, but we were lucky enough for them to join us for a unique lineup of bands. Within just a few bars of their first number, (insert what you played first here, I can't remember, sorry lol), it is clear to all that Elliott Lewis and Wayne Jefferies, who take the positions as guitarists within the band, are masters of their instruments and faithfully re-create the music of Django Reinhardt, but adding their own style to numbers such as Minor Swing, Blue Bossa, and Undecided. Joined by bassist Rob Coates and James Tolhurst completing the lineup, their enthusiasm is infectious and the music always driving. If you ever get the chance to catch these guys doing a set, you will not be disappointed!' "
