Whether in a lively party with dancing or a more intimate event, you will find Ultraswing's infectious sound totally suitable. Their repertoire can be tailored to suit your style of function and its guests. Ultraswing are available to play live jazz music as a duo, trio or quartet with the addition of violin, accordian or a wind instrument.

Arrived on time to set up. Great background music. Able to adapt to taking the location of event inside. Very accommodating and happy to set up where asked. Kids loved the music and had a little dance. Really great band and friendly guys. Highly recommend!

Ultraswing were fantastic. Everything about the booking was perfect. Communication and organisation before the gig was great; they were fine about being made to wait a little before taking the stage, and played a beautiful set that really added to the whole event in exactly the way we wanted. Great guys, lovely music. Highly recommended. Thanks to Encore.

These lovely boys played at my birthday party. They even let me sing a tune! They were truly delightful, and I'll use them again :)

Thank you for creating such a wonderful ambience with the music. We absolutely loved it, and lots of our guests commented on how great the music was!
