"We could not be happier with Phil and his AMAZING big band. Right from the very outset things started well as he was very friendly in our conversations and happy to accommodate requests based on our tastes, as well as make his own suggestions (which we of course trusted given his experience!) When it came to the day itself the band were efficient at setting up and getting ready. Finally, the performance... WOW! 80% of the people invited to our wedding were professional musicians and the amount of positive comments was overwhelming. The band played lots of our favourites to keep us happy (including an amazing performance of In the Mood at end the evening), as well as plenty of classics to keep everyone on the dance floor (which, incidentally, was absolutely packed for the whole evening, which is something I've never witnessed before at a wedding, so that in itself is a testament to just how good and entertaining this band is). They even played a few strict tempo numbers which made our ballroom dancing friends very happy indeed. All in all the band and the vocalists were absolutely fantastic and we couldn't recommend them higher. They made our wedding all the more special and unique and we cannot thank them enough. Need a big band? Look no further! Phil's your man!!"

"Amy provided fantastic entertainment for our Hogmanay Party. Wonderful voice and a great personality. Pre-event communication was perfect and she did everything she could to make the event a success. We would be delighted to have her back at the club again."

"My huge thanks to you and all in Chateaux Swing for your excellent music on Tuesday evening at our St George's Banquet on board HQS Wellington - really uplifting stuff that added greatly to the convivial atmosphere of the evening. I'm rather sorry some of them carried on chatting through your brilliant 'concert spot' - a different crowd from January! - but the compliments fed back to me afterwards were universally full of praise. I'm delighted at what you've brought to both events for us, and shall be more than happy to pass on your details to anyone who asks. "

"I booked Swing Gitan to provide a musical accompaniment for a garden party based on a recommendation from my daughter who had heard them previously in Nottingham. They performed their brand of jazz in a serious, professional and skilled manner and they met my requirements for the event exactly."

"We have used the services of The Jonny Kerry band on two occasions and have been impressed on both. Jonny is a very capable and adept musician who goes out of his way to ensure the audience gets a great performance. He certainly set the mood creating a 'Parisian' feel for both our European themed Ball and Valentines Dinner events respectively. Punctual and reliable, and great value for money, you will not be disappointed if you book him. "
