"Just returned from the show at Stamford this evening 22 Nov. Outstanding musical ability, total enthusiasm and hard work, which produced a sound which defied any attempt to keep your hands or feet from moving! They love their music and it showed. It was an superb evening and I will be back. "

"We wanted to say a huge thank you for being part of our wedding. From the classical music during the ceremony to the full 9-piece jazz band in the evening, the music was just perfect. We have been fans of Count Down To Swing for a long time and have always said you would be amazing to have at a wedding so we are so pleased you could play for us on our special day. We have had so many comments from our guests about how fantastic the band was and you were definitely one of the highlights of the day. You never fail to get everyone dancing! We are also very grateful for the music you provided for our wedding video. The live recordings have made the videos so personal and bring back the best memories of the day."

"Excellent singer & performer who was so easy to deal with from start to finish. The weather was fine on our day so we moved everything outside and Sarah-Jane was able to perform outside for our event. It was fantastic. Thank you."

"The band was fantastic - a great centrepiece for the evening reception! Excellent style and lots of fun for all generations. Four months on and we still hear a lot of praise for the band from all our guests. The logistics also worked perfectly, which is ever so important on the day. We would highly recommend them!"

"We recently had Ophelia perform at our ‘Day of the Dead’ party, and she was absolutely fantastic. Her combination of live vocals and trumpet created a brilliant atmosphere that everyone enjoyed. She brought great energy, engaged naturally with the guests, and delivered a performance that felt both professional and personal. We received so many compliments from our guests and would be delighted to book her again for a future event—especially a summer party if she’s available!"

"Wanted to say thank you so much to you and the rest of the band for Saturday. We are so pleased we chose you to play at our wedding - you were absolutely brilliant. I love the fact we managed to sneak in a dance together before the rest of the guests made it to the dancefloor. That was a lovely a really memorable moment for us. Thank you so much for dealing so admirably with our wedding overrunning. We are sad not to have had 2 full hours of CDTS, but we were delighted with we did have. "

"Chris and I can't recommend Sean highly enough. We had so many positive guest comments, including from other professional entertainers. He was fantastic at both the DJ-ing and the singing (the number of people who still thought he was DJ-ing at the first song was staggering!), I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone, and in fact, one guest wanted contact details to immediately book him. Great communication too, and a genuinely nice guy who was a pleasure to have involved in our wedding day."

"The Starcasters smashed it at our party and made it a very special night. They’re highly accomplished and versatile musicians, so were able to fully accommodate our requests, playing two sets that featured differing styles and eras. They had the room up dancing and greatly impressed a friend who is a top level musician himself - best two compliments you could have! Greg was also very friendly and professional to deal with, providing great communication in advance and on the night."

"Now that we're back from honeymoon and getting into the swing of things again, we thought it was time to sart thanking the many people who helped to make our day - and evening - so special. You and the band were amazing! Such a fantastic sound and a wonderful set - including the horn section on "All You Need Is Love" - made for a night we'll all remember for the rest of our lives. Our guests and Jamie at Micklefield Hall have all commented on what a fantastic band Count Down To Swing are. Thank you so much for being so flexible, so lovely to deal with - but most of all thank you so much for the wonderful music!!"
