Review Centre: Swing Bands

"Laura and I just want to say a huge thank you to you and the band for singing/playing at our wedding party in London. All our guests were raving about you guys and thought it was a perfect musical accompaniment... You sounded great! We certainly had a fantastic time and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves that evening! So, thank you again for making it a perfect day and we will certainly recommend you to everyone we can for any future bookings."

"We had the pleasure of hiring the Hot Club du Nax for our event, and they completely exceeded our expectations! From the first note, they brought so much energy and joy — people couldn’t stop dancing and smiling. Their sound is authentic, their timing impeccable, and they really know how to engage with the crowd. If you're looking to add a unique and vibrant touch to your party, look no further. Highly recommended!"

"Kathmandu Post: "Pusch says his passion for jazz is not about money. Instead it is a philosophy …" Time Out New Delhi: "There have been many jazz musicians – saxophonists John Coltrane and George Brooks to name a couple – who have been intrigued by the melodic and rhythmic complexities of Hindustani classical music. Saxophonist Rainer Pusch, how!ever, belongs to the rare breed of Western musicians who have been influenced by Carnatic music …" The Hindu: "Rainer Pusch´s solo attempts managed to capture the feel of jazz without digressing the feel from the raga pattern …" Jazzpodium: "Überzeugend hingegen geriet die Premiere von KARUNA Kshetra. Puschs warmer Tenorton versteht sich bestens mit demkarnatischen Sänger Manickam Yogeswaram …" Mannheimer Morgen: "Früher war die Musik mein Leben. Heute muss die Musik mein Leben widerspiegeln, sagt Rainer Pusch, ein Mann, der zwischen Madras, Paris und Boston viel erlebt hat …"

"Kevin, il violinista, è un professionista straordinario e una persona splendida. Abbiamo scelto Kevin per la cerimonia nel matrimonio di mia sorella. Fin dal primo momento che l'abbiamo conosciuto, ci ha colpito la sua gentilezza, la sua disponibilità. Il giorno del matrimonio, ha reso la cerimonia indimenticabile e magica. Grazie infinite per tutto."

"We hired Kevin and Sergio to play at our wedding and it was the absolute best decision we made! A few days prior, we booked tickets to ride the Arno Boat in Florence where we first saw Kevin play in person and we were BLOWN AWAY! He is a seasoned musician and incredibly talented. He even played a special song from Dune for my finance and he was so surprised! As for the wedding, Kevin and Sergio were booked for aperitivo and dinner, but came early to play for our ceremony which we decided on just the day before the wedding. They are incredibly professional, yet personable at the same time. We came out of the experience feeling like we gained new friends :) if you are looking for musicians to play for any special event, you’ve come to the right place!!"

"What a voice! What a selection of songs including their own writing! We should have ordered more dinner courses for longer listening … ;-) All the best - you are fantastic and you create a unique atmosphere!!!"

"10/10 , very cool band, full of energy. I personally dealt with Francesco who made a contract for me, he was super understanding of the type of the event, the organisation and untill know I can highly recommend him for his communication skills. I feel I can drop him a message at any time and he will answer within hours the same day. Highly professional can't wait to see Francesco and the rest of the band, performing at my wedding. "

"Hitchen Jazz Group travelled all the way to Holland to play for my family at a party. There were going to be many jazz lovers in attendance, so I checked out the Hitchen Jazz Website, and loved what I viewed. Hitchen Jazz Trio played an excellent selection of Jazz Standards, and we all loved it. The guys in the group were super friendly, and David even gave an impromptu trumpet lesson to one of the guests. Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou! "

"...was such a delightful addition at our daughter's wedding. ... worked closely with the bride and groom to plan the music for the ceremony and the cocktail reception, and participated in the rehearsal so that he was well-prepared for the event. We were thoroughly pleased with Josiah's musical expertise and affable demeanor." "...is a true professional!"

"The Swing Empire have performed at several key events for us recently including the Cornwall Tourism Awards, our wedding open day and our New Years Eve celebration and they were amazing on each occasion! We had so many positive guest comments and feedback that we just had to book them again for this New Years. With a great variety of songs, interaction with the crowd and very smartly dressed what more could you want! Excellent musicians and certainly a band that we will be recommending for future events that The Headland organise and also for our clients weddings and corporate events."

"His solos tell a story. Their lines unfold with a natural flow, especially on the ballads 'For Heaven's Sake' and 'Portrait of Jenny'. "
