One Jump Ahead were just phenomenal at our wedding. We are quite an introverted bunch and they had everybody dancing - even grandparents! As musicians they were incredibly tight, playing universally appealing music and reading the dancefloor extremely well. They were pros to the end, playing fantastically even when our venue, extremely embarrassingly, did not provide them with the hot meal we'd arranged for them. We'd 100% recommend them for any event.

"Thank you to you and the band for doing such a great job at our wedding in July. You guys had such great energy, our guests loved dancing to you. Thanks for playing a good variety of songs too so that our non-swing dancing guests could show off their moves too! We loved the first dance and really appreciate the band learning the song for us, we hope you will continue to play it in your future gigs. Tom's grandparents also had a lovely dance to your rendition of Moonlight Serenade, thank you. We'll be recommending you to our family and friends for future events!"

A big “thank you” to you and the band for making my birthday party a really special evening. I think without exception, everyone commented on how much they had enjoyed the band and how professional you all were. It was great to hear some of my favourite songs included in the set, thanks for letting me choose from your big repertoire of swinging tunes.

It was an absolute pleasure to have you perform for us and also to meet such a lovely bunch of people :) A huge number of people sought me out, specifically to let me know ‘how fantastic the band were’ and how much they were enjoying your work. I think this speaks for itself! It goes without saying that the music was superb, your energy was fantastic and you created a great atmosphere with your energy and style! I also thank you for your knowledge and advice at various points. You really went beyond what was stated on our contract and I am very grateful for that. I would book you again in a blink!

You were absolutely fantastic and caught the mood of the guests wonderfully. We all had such a great time and loved dancing the night away. The dance floor was virtually consistently full and age of dancers varied from 8-80. It was the best time I personally have had at a wedding for years. We would certainly book you again.
