We had an AWESOME event, thanks in large part to Swingtown! Our guests loved his style and music selection. They were singing along and dancing the entire time. At one point Bryan started a runway style fashion show with some of our members and it was HILARIOUS! He also played a couple of Sinatra songs on trombone early on, it was classy and unique.
Everyone can't stop talking about how much fun it was, and Swingtown was our only entertainment.
Bryan is 100% Professional, accommodating and responded fast to all of my requests and questions.
We'll DEFINITELY bring him back to our next event!
Response from The Mad Men Swing Band:
Thank you so much for having me! It was a pleasure to be part of your event! I'm so glad your guests had a good time (...for the record, I did too!) I look forward to the next one!
