CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Swiftkick Band was the best I could have hoped for in terms of entertainment value and professionalism. They all dressed extremely well for the event, arrived plenty early to get their gear tuned properly, whipped out an early song for the first dance, and kept the party going all night. I've been to many weddings and usually the band acts as background noise, but Swiftkick Band was the main attraction. Nearly everyone with legs was on the dance floor until closing time. Overall, I can't imagine another band doing as well.

AWESOME Band! Swiftkick was the perfect entertainment for this 50th birthday party for twins! We had a fun crowd and heard nothing but positive feedback...everyone from the 16 year-old kids of the twins to the 80-something parents, and all of the rest of our fun-loving middle-aged guests were dancing! We'd hire them again anytime. GREAT JOB!

They were wonderful - played all the great dance songs appropriate for the age group 27-65. Tom was so easy to work with and was so helpful and accomodating. We could not have been more pleased. Our guests danced continually. On one of the hottest and and most humid nights of the year the band was HOT!!!

We danced all night! As the mother of the bride I was very tired after all the festivities but each song they played was better than the last and I couldn't stop dancing. Everyone complimented us on our choice of bands.

Swiftkick played at our wedding on October 8, 2005 and we couldn't be happier with their performance. Our dance floor was packed and friends and family continue to tell us how much they loved the band. We especially appreciate Thom's professionalism and dedication. They learned our first dance song for us and did an amazing job! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fun, enthusiastic band.
