We had the pleasure of listening to Mary Jane sing at our wedding drinks reception recently! Her voice was a dream, perfect for our Christmas wedding. All of our guests were captivated by her performance, particularly my dad who just adores 1940’s jazz music. Mary Jane is a lovely talented lady, who definitely managed to sprinkle some festive magic on our special day. I would highly recommend ☺️.

Mary Jane Swingtet played at a corporate event on a rooftop terrace for my team. They were absolutely brilliant and really elevated the whole evening for everyone. They also judged and pitched the right songs and volume level extremely well, from soft background music as people were arriving and talking to ramping it up a little later in the evening. I won't hesitate to book them again and recommend them to colleagues and friends. People at the event were very impressed.

A great performance, superb voice, lovely tone from the Sax and glorious jazz guitar! Just what we needed for our 40s retro themed day. A mix of old and newer songs. Everyone loved it!

Mary Jane, the guitarist and double bass player were perfect for my 50th birthday. Her voice is true and beautifully suited to 50s jazz. All our friends were amazed. We will book again.

Mary’s trio played at our jubilee picnic lunch, attended by around 300 people. They looked lovely and sounded gorgeous. So many people told us how much they enjoyed the music. Highly recommend, and lovely people as well!

Customer questions

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

I always make sure the line-up you book is the one you’ll see on the night. On the rare occasion someone is unwell or unavailable, I work with a small pool of trusted, pre-auditioned musicians who step in seamlessly. As a professional band, our reputation means everything to us, so you can be confident every player is of the highest standard.

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes I can offer different line ups: Duo: Vocals and Guitar/Piano Trio: Vocals and Guitar/Piano/Double Bass 4 - 8 Piece: Vocals and Guitar/Piano/Double Bass/Drums/Sax/Trumpet

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let us know. If you wish to extend the timings then this will effect the quote.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, we can provide music through our amp using a phone or tablet. We’re happy to play background music during our breaks at no extra cost. If you’d like us to provide this service before our performance starts or after we finish, we can absolutely do that for an additional fee.

How much time do you need to set up?

We require half an hour to set up.

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Our set lists have been shaped by countless performances and are designed to create the perfect atmosphere for your event. That said, I’m always happy to discuss options, whether that’s highlighting favourites from our repertoire or adding in a special request that isn’t already on the list.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Yes

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £50 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.
