Swing Bands For Hire in Manchester

Whether you want to “Sing, Sing, Sing” along to some Benny Goodman, get down to “I Wanna Be Like You” from Disney's Jungle Book or pretend you're in a wretched Mos Eisley hive of scum and villainy to the Cantina Band song, our Manchester swing bands will get each and every one of your guests shuffling to the beat. Fans of modern swing, 1940s swing and gypsy swing will have plenty of standards to enjoy, and your more casual music fans will be treated to a few Postmodern Jukebox-inspired swing versions of popular songs. Amy Winehouse's 'Valerie', Dolly Parton's '9 to 5' and Pharrell's 'Happy' are just a few of these ingenious re-imaginings. And speaking of ingenious re-imaginings, come the season of yule, you'll get to hear our Manchester swing band work their magic on 'Jingle Bells', 'Rocking Around the Christmas Tree' and 'Frosty the Snowman' as well as 'White Christmas' and 'Winter Wonderland'.

We went through Bands For Hire to book Soul That Swings. It was such an amazing experience from start to finish. The band was superb and the whole night was fantastic, we had so many compliments from our guests and a few are booking the band for different events. We will definitely use you again in the future.
