As one of the best Swing singers the UK has to offer, Cambridge Swing Singer Mickey sings all the Rat Pack favourites in his own inimitable style as well as fresh takes on modern classics.
Mickey is a highly experienced, professional vocalist. A weddings specialist, he also performs at a wide range of events and has had the pleasure of singing for HM The Queen and Heads of State.
Mickey sang at our wedding and he was fantastic! The weather was very warm yet Mickey delivered a sterling performance. All our guests loved his set. Thank you, it was fabulous, Rachel and Scott McComb.
The perfect performance complimented the tone and feeling of our wedding day and so we are truly grateful for the fantastic performance. The numerous compliments and comments we have recurved simply support what a great performance we received. Thanks
Everything was perfect. All of Mickey's pre party arrangements were spot on. He performed beautifully and made the party a success. Would highly recommend.
Very good singer and good playlist. Guests all complimented how good he was. Would definitely recommend booking him to anyone who likes Rat Pack style music. Very reasonably priced for two 45 minute sets.
Mickey was excellent from start to finish. I barely had 5 minutes to speak to him as was busy with my event but he sorted himself out and sang wonderfully throughout our fundraiser. Cannot wait to use him again at any event and would thoroughly recommend his beautiful vocals. So many great comments too from our guests. Thank you Mickey.
"Mickey was fantastic. Professional, timely, courteous, flexible, and of course very talented. A great night was had by all. Would highly recommend Mickey and poptop for future events.
Best wishes

"I have booked Mickey Fordola on several occasions to entertain at Charity Balls I have helped organise in Cambridge. Mickey can provide a fantastic Buble/Sinatra type set as a welcoming background for pre-dinner drinks but equally can up the tempo with a repertoire to make the party ‘go with a swing’ and ensure everyone hits the dance floor. He is also able to provide a great disco.
I highly recommend Mickey; a true professional providing a wonderful range of entertainment."
"If your thinking of having a party and looking for a singer ,Mickey Fordola is your man.
His voice is out of this world, first class.
Don't hesitate just book him you won't be disappointed believe me xx"
I’ve seen Mickey perform at several corporate and charity events over the past few years and he’s been a joy to listen to every time. He’s a consummate professional with the ability to seamlessly tailor his performance to the audience and venue. In addition to the highly polished performances of classic swing and Rat Pack songs that you’d expect from Mickey, he’s able to put his own twist on more contemporary songs. I would highly recommend booking Mickey for your event – you won’t be disappointed!
I've been to many parties, company events, charity evenings, and other celebrations which were made all the more memorable thanks to the wonderful Mickey Fordola. He's sung 'background music' during cocktails and canapés, headlined with his rat-pack set, and DJayed - all have been excellent. He's a man of many talents, and has a great voice too. Book him now!
"I have had the pleasure of seeing Mickey Fordola at several large scale corporate events as well as at a small wedding blessing and have thoroughly enjoyed all of them.
He has an incredibly natural performing style and has a knack of getting the audience involved with ease.
His performance would definitely fit in with any kind of event and appeals to all ages.
Swing music wasn't really my cup of tea initially but I now want Mickey to perform at my wedding when the time comes which shows how entertaining he is.
I can't recommend him enough - well worth booking."
What a great voice! Mickey Fordola sang at a party we had to open our newly refurbished building & restaurant at work and he was fab. Perfect entertainment!
Mickey Fordola is a unique performer - an old fashioned crooner with a twist.
I'm so lucky to meet many people celebrating very special days in their lives, and I've performed in some stunning venues, so it's hard to pin down a single highlight! But performing for Her Majesty the Queen at her Diamond Jubilee celebrations which was a real honour, and a very memorable day.

Feeling good
Fly me to the moon
For once in my life
From Russia with love
