"The Flamingos had our wedding guests on their feet all night! As a smaller wedding of only about 40 guests, we were a bit nervous if we would be able to fill the dance floor. But with The Flamingos we need not have worried! They combine incredible musical talent with real creativity and energy and the ability to get--and keep!--a party going. They also went above and beyond--learning our first dance song from scratch and giving us a beautiful rendition of it. We are so grateful to have been able to book them for our wedding! "

"These guys are the epitome of real, authentic jazz. They really know what they're doing: they look the part, they sound the part and they have been a pleasure to work with. I can't wait to hear what else is in store for them, The Brighton Jazz Duo are bound for great things."

"I just wanted to drop you a line to say a MASSIVE THANKS to Swing Effect. We managed to put on a really fun event and that was due to you joining our gang for the night. You were great and we got lots of great comments about you guys especially the Radiohead cover. On a personal note you were so lovely, I think you turned up when a few things were going awry for us but you were a safe pair of hands and made our lives easier. I thank you so much for that and I’m just sorry I didn’t get more time to chat. I really appreciate the efforts you made for us."

"Fleur sang at our wedding this month and she was awesome. She sang me down the aisle - Etta James' 'At Last' and it was absolutely perfect. It was a beautiful way to kick off our wedding and all of the guests commented about how amazing Fleur's voice is. After the ceremony Fleur played at our afternoon reception, accompanied by her brilliant pianist. It was a lovely atmosphere and lots of the guests were joining in with the songs. I loved every minute of it. Fleur's voice sends shivers down your spine and she sang some of my favourite tunes. She puts her own spin on the songs and this is why I wanted her to play at our wedding. I would highly recommend Fleur; she adds that little something different, perfect and unique."

"I have heard Catherine perform at so many different venues, including outdoor concerts, and her voice can penetrate any environment because it is so very movingly soulful yet in a jazz style. "

"The Band played at the reception for our daughter's wedding in the unusual setting of Boggle Hole Youth Hostel - well done for making it down the hill! They were perfect for the occasion, with a great choice of lively and well-known tunes, and never dominated the proceedings by being too loud. They are all extremely talented musicians. The vast majority of the wedding party are singers and performers, so are hard to impress, but everyone enjoyed the music and commented on the lovely atmosphere the band created. Very highly recommended to help your event go with a swing! Thank you."

"The Bedfordshire Golf Club was buzzing again on New Years Eve due to the welcomed return of Christian Gibson. We all celebrated the end of the year accompanied by Christain's amazing voice. He sang a variety of songs from Westend musicals to up to date hits. Fabulous evening, too many lovely comments from members and friends to mention. We can't wait until he performs again."

"Francesca and the trio were simply fantastic. The most perfect band in every way. Looked incredible, effortlessly cool and stylish, and sounded incredible. Francesca has the most beautiful singing voice, and every single guest was blown away by their sound. They hit the brief completely, and adjusted based on the ambience of the guests and the day. Super friendly to interact with, a true pleasure to have at our event. If you’re trying to find a band/singer that oozes absolute quality, are reliable, elegant and classy, then this HAS to be it. The venue now has floods of requests for Francesca, and I am not surprised in the slightest. Thanks again trio, we love you! "

"Luke sang at our wedding last weekend and I just wanted to say thank you for the amazing job. His vocals were fantastic and he was more than happy to learn and sing our first dance song. He and his band Le Beat were spot on and we highly recommend them to anyone looking to hire a singer or band. Thanks again Luke, top job!"

"Hi Chris, The dust has settled in the wedding day but we will never forget what an amazing day we had. Made so special in no small way by The MB Band We think you guys are amazing. Quite a few of our guests said they were left astounded by your performance. So full of energy, passion and talent. A massive sound. Basically not what you normally get at a wedding. So yes, we did get engaged at one of your gigs. You were headline at our wedding. I’m now thinking we have our 40th birthdays coming up so we may well be making further enquiries with you. Thank you again Chris. You were great to deal with and The MB Band left us and 130 guests floored. Never seen such a full dance floor from the get go! Until next time. James"
