Review Centre: Swing Bands

"The broad repertoire his groups encompass and the care with which he deals with musical details are a welcome exception in this age of super specialization and an obsession with quick results at the expense of real quality. Bill Dobbins, Eastman School of Music"

"Swing Shift played at our wedding, a modest affair with 200 of our closest friends and family. After our wedding dance, a foxtrot, the band started into that great swing tune, "In the Mood". Everyone, and we do mean everyone, ran onto the dance floor and danced the night away. What a magical evening!!! Bob and Karen PS: I have attached one of our favourite photos from the evening. "

"The Simon Burke jazz band was absolutely perfect for our professional women’s retreat in New Orleans on March 18, 2026! I could not have been more pleased with this trio, and would definitely recommend them to anyone whether the function is for a private event, celebratory lunch, dinner, brunch, a professional networking event, etc. They were stellar and you would love them! Highly professional, the music was beautiful, and everybody really enjoyed listening to them. I would hire this group again in a heartbeat!"

"During a medical conference in Greece this summer, we had the pleasure of hearing the band Marmitas perform live at the reception. Their performance was truly amazing, mixing international songs with a professional touch that left us impressed. We especially loved their jazz tunes, which were performed with such precision, and singer Mania added the perfect touch with her incredible voice. It was a musical experience to remember!"
