Reviews of 1950s Era Musicians & Bands available in Perth

5/5 from 825 reviews
Photo of La Dolce Vita Swing Collective La Dolce Vita Swing Collective "Not knowing what to expect I was ready for anything on a warm September night in Edinburgh. This was a Sunday night too and the setting was complete in the nightclub atmosphere that is the Dirty Martini lounge. This band can swing, bass and drums groove sweetly while sax and piano trade solos making this a full sound like there are more on stage. Tony Delicata on vocals blends his Italian roots with Volare, On An Evening In Roma and O Solo Mio as we were escorted to warm Italy with cool sounds and cocktails to suit. The second half opened with I Wish I Knew, an instrumental from the days when Cinema was a TV series before Tony returned with more signature arrangements. By now the audience were itching to dance and with peaks like Mack The Knife and (Theme From) New York New York they were at one with the band. The closing title song was a creative masterstroke and a deserved ovation followed."

Miss Pearl sang songs through the decades so something for everyone. We will definitely be booking her again for future events. Excellent, Thank You" Based in Carlisle, England (105 miles from Perth) Karen Rumney Photo of Leon Marshall Leon Marshall "Really talented guy. Early and organised. No problems and good with our customers. Thanks!" Based in Harrogate, England (182 miles from Perth) Aimee S - Restaurant Photo of True Vintage True Vintage "Very good show, great meeting you and having your show here in Norfolk hopefully we will have you again sometime!! Norman & Helen." Based in York, England (192 miles from Perth) Norman & Helen Illsley - Sheringham Theatre Photo of Mr Swing's Dance Orchestra Mr Swing's Dance Orchestra "We just wanted to drop you a quick message to say thank you so much for being such a fantastic part of our wedding last week! We have lost count of the number of guests who commented on how fantastic you all were, both on the night itself and in messages afterwards. The atmosphere was exactly as we had hoped it would be. We can’t think of a better way that we could have gotten all of the different people from all walks of our lives up and dancing all night! Dexter particularly isn’t much of a dancer so I hope you do take it as the high praise that it is that he was on the dance floor for so much of the evening. We also just wanted to say a massive thank you for being so flexible with the timings and playing later than planned without any issue. Hope the rest of the wedding season continues to be such a success. Thanks so much again." Based in Tadcaster, England (194 miles from Perth) Helen & Dexter - Wedding - Tyne & Wear Photo of Micki Consiglio Micki Consiglio "Saw her last year at the Kings Arms. She has a great voice and good range of material. Well worth booking...." Based in St Helens, England (205 miles from Perth) Gino (Kings Arms Congleton)
