"This is an amazing band, totally professional, totally reliable and a joy to have at any event. Every guest loved them and would return to see them play, they get the audience involved and are a total asset to any event. Would definitely employ them again, they understand what you need them to do and are flexible and incredibly easy to work with, a great price and worth it if you want your event to go off with a huge bang.

"The ultra-stylish Kit Packham’s One Jump Ahead band is now 30 years old. For this Sunday afternoon gig at the award-winning Hideaway, they performed a rollicking set of songs ranging from 1940s and 1950s jump/jive, R&B and classic rock ‘n’ roll, to jazz standards and originals, featuring the band’s core seven-piece line-up: Bandleader and composer, Kit Packham on saxophones and lead vocal, Steve Knight on guitar, Perry White on piano, Alex Keen on double bass, Kenrick Rowe on drums, Tracey Mendham on saxophones and vocals, and Simon Da Silva on trumpet and flugelhorn. Striking in a blue pinstripe suit and fedora, Packham resembled Frank Sinatra, and he introduced numbers in a clear and informative way. They opened with one of the band’s original tunes, ‘Swing It’, which immediately propelled people to the dance floor. The band’s perky theme tune, ‘One Jump Ahead’, contained one of Packham’s signature, impactful abrupt endings and deadpan Knight added even more colour to the act by performing a nose flute solo on The Blues Brothers classic, ‘Minnie the Moocher’. White nailed a stunning boogie-woogie piano solo punctuated by thrillingly deep bass notes from Mendham on baritone saxophone on ‘Choo Choo Ch’Boogie’, and they even managed to squeeze in a world premiere featuring Vera Lynn’s World War II song, ‘We’ll Meet Again’: Loosely named ‘The Last Song Of The Set’, it cleverly welded an old song onto a new one. Eventually the two tunes overlapped, bringing the gig to an impressive end. The time flew; a sure sign that Kit Packham’s One Jump Ahead with its thoroughly well-written arrangements and heartfelt blend of comedy and music, had done a fine job of bringing this classy joint to life."

"We booked the guys to play their part in our party themed on New York in the late 50s ( like West Side Story). The perfect choice as it turned out. They even worked a couple of new songs into their set. Would see them again when playing one of their more regular gigs in town. Highly recommended!"

"The Swing Things played my daughters wedding in July and it was brilliant. Marcus was brilliant to work with and all the players were just marvellous. The music was just what we wanted and got everyone on their feet and dancing. I would strongly recommend to anyone."

"We were thrilled to have Unwritten Duo perform at our steampunk-themed wedding. Total professionals! They learnt songs from our favourite bands, arrived and set up early for us. We loved Jo's voice the first time we heard her and they gave a stunning performance for us and our guests. I recommend Lady Rose to everyone. Absolutely brilliant! "

"“ Professionalism , talent , attention to detail and a complete willingness to be flexible with the venue made the Vibettes a wonderful addition to our Coronation Celebrations. Not only do they sing beautifully but they totally immerse themselves in their role and literally transport you to another era. Our audience which included tots , teens and adults of all ages were enthralled from start to finish and the Vibettes created an afternoon fit for a King ” "

"Guys, can’t even begin to say just how absolutely bloody awesome your set was on Saturday night, takes a bit to get me dancing and I hardily left the floor. We've had so many thanks, but they're all mentioning you as the show stoppers."

"Just a note to say a HUGE thank you for the most wonderful set you played at my 50th. The band and the song choices were simply brilliant and totally aligned to the Gatsby theme, but I wanted to particularly call out your AMAZING voice and performance. So many people told me how impressed they were… "
