Swing Thing offers dedicated tributes to the Rat Pack, Michael Buble or Neil Diamond, alongside a set of 60s-00s dance/party music, perfect for weddings and other events. Choose from any of his five repertoire lists below and tailor-make your own sets.

Swing and dance with Hertfordshire-based wedding singer & Rat Pack tribute artist, who brings Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Bobby Darin and many others strolling back on to the stage with a verve and casual grace that takes his performance far beyond a simple reproduction of the original songs. He also supplies a DJ service between sets, and can add an extra dimension to his act with a female backing singer.

Swing Thing recently performed to special guest Jean Christophe Novelli at the relaunch of celebrity chef Mark Beaumann’s restaurant, and is booked to perform at yacht club Cala d’Or in Majorca this summer. He regularly performs at weddings, parties, and corporate functions for clients such as ABinBev (formerly Whitbread), Bupa and Tesco.

  • What a fantastic night out we both had last Thursday. We go to all the tribute nights there but have to say you took our breath away. We want to book you for our wedding.

    Simon, Tribute night, Hertfordshire, July 2009
  • I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your show last Wednesday. I had booked with my husband to take my parents for a meal and made it Wednesday as we are all huge Rat Pack Fans. I would love to know when you are going back to Amersham so that I can make sure I book our table in advance!! Thanks again for a fab evening.

    Helen G., Tribute Night, Buckinghamshire, May 2009

    General Manager, Caffe Uno, Hertfordshire, April 2009
  • I am writing to thank you very much for your fantastic performance last Saturday night at my dad's 80th birthday celebration. Almost all of the guests have contacted us since to thank us for a fantastic night and to say how marvellous the both of you were. My mum and dad also had a wonderful time and were over the moon with your performance, even my old Uncle George's feet were tapping!

    Once again, thank you for making my dad's birthday such a memorable occasion, and hopefully we may get the chance to hire you again sometime in the future.

    Linda, Birthday Party, Hertfordshire, 2009
  • Simply a fantastic night, We've never been so busy on a Wednesday!
