"Ruby sang at our anniversary party in 2016, and she made it an absolutely unforgettable evening. She has a fantastic song list ready, and she is happy to learn new songs for you, - even if I must say that her repertoire matches my own favourite songs, so I would be hard pushed to find any additional to request. Ruby covers all sorts of swing and Jazz from the Andrew Sisters to Amy Winehouse, dance music from cha cha cha to rock ‘n roll plus also Beatles and Bowie and other styles of music. All delivered with Ruby's own touch. Some of them much better than the originals. On top of it all, she made me aware of another brilliant singer, the Dutch Caro Emerald, as Ruby sings a couple of Caro’s songs. To have Ruby singing was, to quote a Caro Emerald song: “I have never dreamed, dreamed a night like this” I would definitely recommend Ruby for any party, birthday, wedding, anniversary or the like."

"I had such fun listening to Cherry and the Sirens at the Little Gate farm Big Festival. Their music is very swing-danceable, and the performance was professional, energetic and beautiful. I will definitely go to many more of their gigs..."

"Robert, we wanted to thank you so much for performing at our Wedding. We had a lot of trouble finding someone so late on in the day, and your availability is so impressive. We both loved your voice, you are so talented and you made our day that bit more special, we are so grateful you could make it at such short notice! We will be recommending you to our friends and family, because you are a step above the rest! Mark & June Allen. (10 / 10)"

"I booked Bella Swing Band for an Italian themed cocktail party for a pop up shop launch in London. They were flexible with numbers and budget for me (I only needed a 3 piece, not the traditional 5 piece group). They also had to play outside and we're very accommodating of that and brought their own speakers / soft music btw sets. So I didn't need to worry about anything music related on the evening which was a real relief. And they were great. They really lifted and helped make the party a huge success and were truly perfect for our event. I had them sing only Italian themed songs, but they would be wonderful at any style of jazz performance. Easy to work to work with and incredibly professional - I highly recommend."

"A huge thanks to you and the band in contributing to a very successful Battle of Britain Ball. The music was varied, fun and had the dance floor full from start to finish. This is the 3rd time I have seen the swing band and each time there has been a different arrangement or new tune to add to each occasion. Looking forward to next year."

"Mr Swing’s Dance Orchestra made our wedding! We thought our special day couldn’t get any better after we exchanged our vows and heard the kind words from our family but, as soon as we heard the music, I knew that the band would leave an impact on our guests. I did not stop dancing all night! We truly enjoyed every moment of the band’s set and all our guests have commented on how wonderful they were. Really wish we could have had them longer. I want to say a heartfelt thank you to Matthew and the rest of the band for making our wedding magical. All our love, Mr & Mrs Colbeck."

"Absolutely the best!! All the guests at the reception commented on the band. I asked them to add a horn section, so we had an eight piece band and their soundman. The soundman went the extra mile and provided sound for the outdoor wedding ceremony also, and during the cocktail hour, some of the band members provided an acoustical set before the reception officially began. My daughter wanted a lot of the Sinatra sound and they delivered. She and her father danced to Sinatra's "Fly Me To The Moon" (George is a corporate pilot) and I will never forget the sight they made as they danced. A memory to hold forever in my heart and the memory definitely has the sound!! You can not go wrong with this band, whatever sound you want. And I think that they actually gave me more than I paid for. Truly marvelous and professional musicians!! My daughter's "do not play" list was basically "nothing cheesy". They were perfect and worth every penny."

"Choosing the band Hot Wings for our wedding was the best choice we made. At the beginning of our wedding planning we weren't sure if we needed a band, but now I know that we needed it at the maximum and it was Hot Wings :) Investing in a good band is really worth it. Hot Wings turned our day into an amazing experience. Even while getting dressed and getting ready before the ceremony, when I heard the sound check, I was excited to see how everyone on the dance floor would rock it out thanks to the music. I was looking forward to the concert, which was the highlight of the whole day. And it was unforgettable! Dear Hot Wings, you were amazing ❤ you are all very likeable and talented young people and we are very happy that you came to spend our day with us in the High Tatras. You created an indescribable atmosphere and gave us a party that we will remember for a very long time?."
