"Couldn't recommend these guys enough! We booked Dave and his band for my mums 70th and they were fantastic ! Everyone loved them and they read the room really well (nice background music when people arrived then stuff for people to dance to). They brought all their own gear and only needed a plug socket, so setup was really smooth. And communication in the lead up was great - Dave was so friendly and helpful. Seeing my mum and dad dancing along to the music and having a great time was a real highlight - huge thanks to Dave and the band for an amazing night. Note, we had Dave on guitar and vocals, and someone on keys and bass - all top quality musicians."

"The Vintage Rollers were absolutely incredible for our office Christmas Party. Dani & Alex were so helpful beforehand with my many (many!) questions about set up requirements, and all of the guys on the night were absolutely lovely. Their performance was a real highlight of the night and we had so much great feedback afterwards - would definitely recommend and will book again if we put on any similarly themed events in the future."

"Thanks so much for a fabulous evening of your music - my only wish is that I can do it all again and just listen to the music. I had a brilliant time. Many people were paying you compliments and will keep you in mind they say."

"I have listened to Jonathan Vinten with real pleasure over a number of years, playing solo, with his trio and recently with the full six piece band. Whatever the venue, ranging from the humble surroundings of the Tunbridge Wells Jazz Club to Leeds Castle, the Savoy Hotel London or the Grand at Brighton, his sheer quality as a musician stands out, as does the range of his repertoire. You need no telling that he has played with the very best in the business, yet, unlike some jazz musicians who seem to play for their own pleasure, Jonathan always sets out to entertain his audience. The standard of the trio is impressive. I have heard the “big” band only once so far but it was a joy, with a fine balance and extended solos you just had to listen to. I don’t get to hear him and the band often enough and, with my partner and friends, make a New Year resolution to put that right. "

"The band were really helpful when we contacted them before the wedding. On the day they set up with no fuss, and let us borrow their mics for our speeches. Their 3 sets were all really good-everyone was dancing from the beginning until the end, and everyone has been commenting on what a great band they are. They were so full of energy, and even ended up wearing props from our photo booth which added to the fun- the drummer looked great in a fez!"

"Just wanted to say how happy I was with MIB’s performance at Newham Under the Stars! The weather wasn’t exactly on our side and this showed in slightly lower audience figures than I would have liked, but those determined concert go-ers who came out despite the showers, chilly winds and muddy part thoroughly enjoyed themselves. I’m sure you could tell from the audience response just how much your performance was appreciated and I hope you enjoyed performing as much as the audience enjoyed watching you. Great music, great vocals and great energy! Considering that this is a free community event, the production was impressively slick and professional and this was in no small part due to MIB’s appearance. Watching video clips back you could quite easily be watching a televised event on the Beeb and I am so proud of it and so pleased that MIB was part of it."

"I booked the quartet to play at my nan's 80th birthday party and they were perfect! They were incredibly communicative and accommodating in the planning of the event, arrived promptly and waited patiently whilst we herded the guests. The repertoire was exactly what we were looking for - jazz and swing classics that my nan and our family enjoyed dancing to. A most excellent time was had by all! The standard of musicianship was of excellent quality - the demo clips on the site are truly representative of the performance you can expect. Five stars all round. "

"Thanks so much for the Jazz trio that played at Adam's party at Hallsannery on Saturday - you were great. Many of the guests have commented that you set just the right tone and created a great ambience. Thanks for helping to make the party a success. "
