Playing a variety of vintage and swing songs very suitable for parties, weddings, events and celebrations. Our love of playing music and our large repertoire & experience means we are popular across ages and musical tastes! From Roaring 20's and 30's to the Vintage swing and jive styles, plus French chansons to latin styles too! We also have other repertoires (including upbeat dancey salsa, tex mex and ska styles & some steel band repertoire) - please enquire!
We can tailor our sets to suit your event, and like to think of ourselves as friendly and approachable, plus highly professional.
It's very hard to put into words how much we loved Frankie and Pete! All of our guests made sure to tell us how much they loved the band! Would definitely book again, they guarantee a great time no matter the weather! 5 stars experience all around!
Great experience. Excellent music. Very professional.
Swing Jamboree made my mother’s 80th birthday party very special indeed.
It was a complete surprise for her and the guests all commented on how much they enjoyed the music.
They were’t loud, people could chat amongst themselves and listen.
Would definitely recommend, we even danced!
Thankyou Pete and Frankie.
