"The Swinging Retros were brilliant to work with from the start, they invited me to come and watch their rehearsal and I could tell from the first song that they would be perfect for the ‘Counter-Culture’ themed event that I was organising at the Jewish Museum.
They were always prompt in communications over logistics and were very professional to liaise with.
The whole band were genuinely enthusiastic – they got everyone up and dancing! It was great to work with people who are so passionate about what they do and I would not hesitate in recommending them."
Rhiannon, Jewish Museum
"The Swinging Retros performed a highly enjoyable 2 hour set of popular and memorable 60s hits at our 2016 Summer Ball for adults with learning disabilities and got everyone dancing."
Russell, Norwood
"The Swinging Retros performed at our annual gala dinner for St Luke’s Hospice on 25th November 2016 at Allianz Park. From the minute we booked them, they were highly professional and wanted to ensure the process was as smooth as possible in order to get the right vibe for the evening! Nothing seemed too much. On the evening itself, they were fantastic! They had the whole room on their feet dancing until the very end, and our guests still rave about them even today. I would highly recommend!"
Nicole, St Luke's Hospice
"We booked The Swinging Retros for a Valentine's Gig we arranged for adults with learning disabilities and/or autism, and their families, friends and carers held at The Clissold Arms in Fortis Green. The band was absolutely amazing! They kept everyone on their feet all night and every song kept everyone entertained. The whole band was fantastic at keeping us all singing and dancing along. We will definitely be looking to book the band again and the feedback we have received from everyone who attended has been brilliant. Thank you The Swinging Retros for making our evening so great! Highly recommended."
Sarah, Barnet Mencap
"The Swinging Retros played at The Rennie Grove Midsummer Ball this month and their vitality and great 60s music had all the guests dancing until 1am.
The band created a wonderful party atmosphere; their choice of songs and friendliness helped to make the Charity Ball a great success.
I would highly recommend the Band for any party event as they will give a hundred percent to the booking and ensure everyone has a good time singing and dancing to their music."

"We all thought your band's performance was very good; it went well with all the attendees, young and old. We will book you again for another event."

“We were delighted with the Swinging Retros; they really livened up our AGM and got everyone on the dance floor. A great night from a very generous band."
Watford Mencap 60s Dance Party & AGM
"The Swinging Retros recently supported our Garden House Hospice Care 60s night at The Stevenage Golf and Conference Centre. The event was a sell-out, and over 100 people danced the night away to the rocking sounds of the 60s, courtesy of The Swinging Retros.
Ruth and the other band members were amazing and sung, hit after hit, filling the dance floor the whole evening. Feedback from the evening has been extremely positive and we look forward to working with them again soon."
