Reviews of Swing Bands available in Westport

5/5 from 820 reviews
Photo of Swingy duo Swingy duo "We were very lucky to have Alice and Fernando travel up the country and perform at our wedding. We had them perform at both our drinks reception and the after-dinner entertainment. We had given a few suggestions like to play some ‘summery rock music but in their own style’ as well as performing their own style of music, and they absolutely delivered! They are both extremely talented and it was such a unique musical act to hear at a wedding which was exactly what we wanted! We were so happy with everything they did and highly recommend them. The only downside was that myself and the groom were not able to just sit and listen to them playing as we were so busy throughout the day 😂" Based in Limerick, Munster (87 miles from Westport) Ciara C - Wedding Photo of Bobby Mc and The Dukes Bobby Mc and The Dukes "Bobby Mc and The Jukes were absolutely fantastic" Based in Dunboyne, Leinster (127 miles from Westport) Margaret Finlay - Suretank Ltd Photo of Lewis & Her Swing Band Lewis & Her Swing Band "The Lewis Barfoot Jazz Quintet delivers amazing performances. The ensemble demonstrated a deep understanding of both the jazz and swing tradition and the soul of live interpretation, balancing technical precision with an inviting sense of spontaneity. Lewis's leadership was evident throughout, with singing that was confident yet understated, allowing space for all the musician voices to shine.There was an unmistakable sense of enjoyment and mutual respect on stage, which translated directly to the audience. Dynamic contrasts were handled with care, and solos were expressive without ever feeling self-indulgent. Particularly impressive was their attention to providing music that truly worked for dancers. Tempos, dynamics, and phrasing were handled with care, ensuring the music was not only enjoyable to listen to but also perfectly suited to the dance floor. Beyond the performance itself, the professional approach stood out throughout the entire process. Communication was clear and reliable from the initial booking through to the end of the event, making the experience smooth and stress-free. Overall, the Lewis Barfoot Jazz Quintet combined high-quality musicianship with professionalism and thoughtful consideration for their audience, resulting in a thoroughly successful event." Based in Cork, Munster (138 miles from Westport) 12th January 2026 Frederico Gallo - Swing Dance event Photo of Andy King of Swing Andy King of Swing "Andy came and performed for us and we all absolutely loved it. During the daytime he delivers a lovely, relaxed jazzy set and in the evening had everyone up dancing to the classic hits of Sinatra etc. All of my guests commented on how brilliant he was and I’d recommend him 100% He was such a nice guy too and went out of his way to accommodate all of our requirements." Based in Heswall, England, United Kingdom (265 miles from Westport) Joanne Starkey - St Pauls Photo of Perfectly Frank a salute to Sinatra Perfectly Frank a salute to Sinatra "I saw David perform his salute to Sinatra on Sunday 15/03/26 at Lee Park Golf Club Merseyside … at first I thought it was a cd he was that good" Based in Liverpool, England, United Kingdom (269 miles from Westport) 19th March 2026 Ian Silverburg - Privet party 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." Based in Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom (292 miles from Westport) K107fm - concert

Frequently asked questions

The average price for swing bands on Gig Heaven is €700, with rates from €210 to €2,350+. Cost varies based on the number of musicians, set length and the style of swing. Swing bands range from intimate jazz combos to large orchestras, and the size of the ensemble is the primary factor in pricing.

The swing bands for hire perform swing, big band jazz, jive, boogie-woogie and related styles from the 1930s through to the modern swing revival. Many bands offer a mix of vintage classics and contemporary songs performed in a swing style.

Typical bookings for swing bands include vintage-themed weddings, black-tie dinners, corporate events, cocktail parties, swing dance nights and gala celebrations. Swing music creates a sophisticated, energetic atmosphere that is perfect for dancing.

The swing bands on Gig Heaven range from small combos of three to five musicians up to full big band line-ups with horn sections and vocalists. A smaller group suits intimate settings, while a larger ensemble delivers the classic big band swing sound.

Most swing bands are self-contained and bring their own instruments, PA system and amplification. Larger ensembles may have specific staging requirements. It is worth confirming technical and space needs with the band before booking.

Swing is written for dancing and most bands build the set around it, varying the tempo so the floor stays busy rather than holding one pace all night. Several will run a short demonstration early on at events where guests do not know the steps. A floor area clear of tables makes far more difference to this than the size of the line-up.

Most perform in vintage-styled suits or dresses in keeping with the era, and many will match a black-tie or 1940s theme if asked. Some carry more than one look and will confirm which suits the occasion. Mentioning the theme when enquiring is usually enough, as it rarely affects the fee.

Most line-ups include one, and in smaller groups the singer often doubles on an instrument. Some acts are instrumental only, which works well for background playing but changes the feel once people want to dance. Profiles say which format each act offers and several can supply either.
