"Daniel and Sababa played at our wedding last August. We spent absolutely ages looking for the right band, and we were losing heart, until we saw this band in action. Simply awesome. The most amazing repertoire, which was great for us because our guests ranged from 4 to 84, and there was something for everyone, even traditional Jewish wedding dances (which we wanted even though our wedding was not religious in any way). Daniel supplied a jazz trio for the daytime (which was excellent), he played keyboard during the actual ceremony (and it was beautiful), then we opted for an 8 piece band for the reception, which was fabulous. So many of our guests commented afterwards about how much they loved our band. Three of our guests are professional musicians themselves, one teaches at the Royal Academy of Music, and one is musical director for the Ritz hotel in London, and they both said the band was fantastic. PLUS ours was a same-sex wedding, and it was important for us to feel comfortable with everyone involved. Daniel is really lovely, and it was a pleasure to have him be such a big part of our perfect day. Thanks Daniel and Sababa - absolutely, unreservedly recommended, we could not possibly fault you in any way, Sarah & Sabina xx (10 / 10) "

"Motown Memories and Ione performed at our wedding in June 2022 and they were absolutely fantastic. Ione is a great singer and the band are superb musicians - there were great guitar solos. At the end of the evening and following the wedding, so many of our guests told us that they thought they were a great wedding band, and the dancefloor was full for the whole evening. They responded and reacted to the crowd expertly. The set list was a great selection of genres and decades, enjoyed by 3 generations. Rhona, the band manager, was great to deal with before the wedding - she asked us questions, she shared an example set list, and she arranged for the first dance to be played."

"Absolutely fantastic. The energy, quality of sound, musicianship, choice of songs, performance and togetherness as a group. They had us dancing the entire time. Personal highlight was when the saxophonist led us in a conga line out of the building and back in again. One guest said it was the best live music they had seen. They were so easy and responsive to organise logistics with. They even helped us rent an accordion that one of our guests played during the ceremony. Worth every penny and would love to see them live again!"

"I would like to say a big thank you to for your beautiful voice and to Clare (Sax) and Bruno (Piano) for the wonderful instrumental accompaniment at Ann’s (Annie) birthday celebration on Sunday. Everyone loved the music and “song list” and we will be talking about it for a long time to come."

"" Swing Gitan are a band that as soon as they start playing you can't help smiling and dancing along. Not only are they accomplished and exceptional musicians but they bring a warmth and sincerity that is needed within an event. From a bookers point of view they were accommodating right up until the event and were always ready to change their set around or put in some songs they didn't know to make it really special for us. My event wouldn't have been as successful if Swing Gitan hadn't have been there and I couldn't recommend them highly enough" "

"Excellent jazz band, very classy, perfect for the event in question. It's nice to see a band which does things so simply and professionally, providing a full sound with the minimum of equipment. They were happy to play to the room when people were eating and talking, at a volume which still allowed conversation, but were friendly and engaging as and when people wanted to interact with them. The singer they provide has a great voice, well matched to their style, no over-acting or dramatic self indulgence, just confident strong and pitch perfect. Great day, thank you."

"Coco 'n' The Fellas were exceptional, great to work with, a delight to listen to, and professional in their approach. We booked Coco 'n' The Fellas to be our live music at a special lunch time meal. They tailored their delivery to match our event perfectly, providing a delightful musical accompaniment to our meal that was very well received. Musically they were excellent, with an uplifting approach that set the tone for the event. We will definitely be using them again, but hopefully as our main feature. Highly recommended."

"I booked Emily to sing at my 50th birthday bash recently - she was simply superb! I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and in fact a couple of my guests have already asked for her contact details. She turned up exactly when she said she would, set up without any fuss at all and then performed a really cracking couple of sets. My friends loved it! She even learnt a specific song that I knew my mates would all sing along to... which worked like a dream! She is so versatile too. We had some 'rat-pack' style songs whilst we were eating and much more up-beat choices whilst we partied! If you are looking for a great singer and performer who also happens to be a really lovely lady too then look no further!"
