"We just wanted to say an enormous THANK YOU to you and Alex for the fantastic set you did on Saturday at Ben’s 40’s Themed 40th Birthday Party! You were so friendly and helpful that many of the guests assumed you were friends of Ben’s. Well you are now! Your voices and Alex’s guitar playing were really lovely and the choice of songs was spot on. I really appreciated the way you took charge of any announcements and navigated the events during the evening without ever taking over, so that it took away any stress from us. Thanks also for enabling Izzy to use the backing tracks so that she could sing some special songs for Ben .You both really helped to make the evening such an enjoyable event for all involved. Lots of people commented on the music and wanted to know who you were, and the staff at the venue said how much they had enjoyed the music and the atmosphere it created. I know Ben will be in touch with you soon, but once again thank you both so much again for helping to make the event ‘go with a swing’ so that we all had a really lovely evening. Best wishes for all the busy times to come,"

"The Swing Outs were professional, courteous and easy to deal with. Their live jazz music provided the perfect backdrop for a convivial evening. Would recommend highly."

I'm glad we went down so well. It was good to have a little crowd of dancers towards the end too! Graham

"Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend, Round About Swing did an incredible job both in our service (solo violin) and bringing a really lively party atmosphere to our winter drinks reception! They were also incredibly nice and easy to deal with. We feel so lucky to have had them there on our special day and our guests loved them too! "

"From my very first enquiry for my 30th birthday party, Deep Down Brass were so responsive and helpful, to the day of the event when they were there in plenty of time, set up without a fuss, looked amazing, we’re super flexible to my needs and played three fantastic sets which had the dance floor full all night. Particular highlights for me where when the band entered from all different corners of the room, my guests were wowed! And when Freed From Desire was playing during one of their between set breaks and they came out playing along, the room went mad and we had carnage for a few minutes! It was epic. Something so different to hear your favourite songs on brass. My guests are still talking about it now and I’m trying to think of an excuse for another party so I can book them again!"

"Thank you so much for such wonderful entertainment for our 10th Wedding Anniversary. You were truly fabulous & are still the talk of the party. I've received so many emails, calls & text messages about you since Friday, you really did make our evening for us, we simply can't thank you enough."

"From first contact, all the way through to the day, Jess was professional, helpful and friendly. They were always responsive to any questions, learnt some extra songs for us perfectly, got to a difficult venue on time, set up discreetly and gave a great performance that they pitched just right for the changing mood throughout the evening. It really stood out how committed to, and passionate about, their music they are and we really felt they cared a lot about making the atmosphere on the day really special. They were even happy dealing with our indecision around playlists (offering great advice) and when first dance etc would be, something I'm personally very grateful to them for handling wonderfully! Furthermore, both Jess and her band members were also lovely wedding guests - they were great at chatting to fellow guests about the music during breaks and at playing music through the system between sets. If we have any events in the future we would definitely have them along to provide the music again. Event details - Wedding reception of approximately 100 people in a 9m x 18m marquee. The music and volume was just right to get people dancing on the dance floor, and also to allow those who wanted to chat to do so comfortably towards the back of the marquee. I believe the equipment Jess brought along was the less powerful available to them, so no worries with larger venues too."

"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."
