It’s always nice when we get re-hired by a previous client, it not only means that they had enjoyed our previous show but it also demonstrates their confidence that we can provide another dose of high-quality swingy jive entertainment for them again.

‘Ode To The Smartphone - running a professional party band from a touchscreen
One of the interesting aspects of performing in a professional band is the variety of different gigs that we encounter. Every wedding, party or corporate event presents itself with new people to entertain at a variety of different venues - it could be playing in someones front room in their house, in a marquee, teepee or yurt in a field, a rural 16th Century Elizabethan Manor House or on the 29th floor of a contemporary office building in central London - we never quite know where we will be hired to play next and swing ourselves silly. With this in mind, you might imagine the exuberance that we felt when we were invited to play at a private party on Mahé Island, Seychelles. Instantly, the mind starts to envisage the quintessential snapshot of warm waves softly lapping onto white sands that stretch far off into the horizon. The generally colder climates of the UK almost make it seem like such tropical paradises are another world away. And at just over 5000 miles from Heathrow to The Seychelles, it almost felt like it was.
