Alison H booked Prestige Swing for their event • June 2024
“I would like to thank you and the band so much for the entertainment last night. The choice of songs was just absolutely perfect for the occasion and we couldn't have had any better. I have had so many positive compliments about the band both last night and in messages this morning - it was just amazing. One thing is for certain, if Hilda and Richard were there, they would have absolutely loved it and I'd like to think they were with us in spirit. The band made the evening completely joyous and that is the lasting memory I will have of my wonderful parents in law. Please pass my thanks and gratitude to the rest of the band - well done. If we ever need a band for a similar occasion in the future, we'll be sure to contact you.”
Natalie H booked Prestige Swing for their Wedding in Devon
“Chris and the band were excellent. Our guests absolutely loved them and they were a perfect end to our special day. Thank you so much, we had a blast.”
All band members were polite, professional and extremely friendly!
Jackie F booked Prestige Swing for their event at Wisbech St Mary Sports & Community Centre in Cambridgeshire
“Arrived on time, set up without any problems and appeared to have everything under control. Definitely took the stress out of it for me! Chris and all band members were extremely polite, professional and extremely friendly!”
A complete dance floor filler.
Jo booked Prestige Swing for their event
“We just wanted to say thank you so much for your help in making our wedding on Good Friday such a great day. I'm sorry to have only spoken to you fleetingly but can safely say your sets were one of (if not the) highlights of the wedding. A complete dance floor filler and we had so many comments about how much people enjoyed your music. If you ever need any recommendations from 'real life couples' just give me a shout and I'd be happy to help. Many thanks and best wishes to you and the rest of the team.”

Alan H booked Prestige Swing for their event
“A good sized and appreciative audience at Fleetwood's Marine Hall were well entertained by a band that certainly lived up to its name of Prestige Swing. Led by Pianist/Trumpet and Vocalist Chris the band played a excellent selection of favourites made famous by such as Glen Miller, Count Basie, Woody Herman, Frank Sinatra etc. Although only 11 musicians they were all masters of their craft featuring many fine soloists, particularly bass player Steve. Simone was not only a good vocalist but a very talented saxophonist who at one time had been lead alto wit the Ivy Benson Orchestra. Featuring numbers like In The Mood, Woodchoppers Ball, Chicago, Georgia etc the band had the audience foot tapping along then cheering for more at the end of a very entertaining evening.”
