    About this Act

    With a fine collection of musicians and vocalists, the Manytones Swing Collective are a Vintage Swing and Jazz band available from 5 to 12 Piece Band with Horn Section, Double (Upright) Bass, Piano, Drums and vocals.

    Featuring winner of BBC’s “My Way to Sinatra”, George Gallagher, and the smooth seamless vocals of James C – the band are a real tribute to the greats of Rat Pack, Swing and Jazz and cover the vintage greats of Sinatra, Bobby Darrin, Dean Martin, Sammy Davies Jnr, and the modern takes by the likes of Michael Bublé.

    Despite undertaking over 100 performances annually, each and every client is important to the band. Whether it’s your Corporate Event, Wedding, or Birthday party –everyone is given the the same great level of customer service – with a dedicated event planner who will ensure everything runs according to plan, in advance of and on your big day.

    The band can add that personal touch to your Wedding too – by going one step further than any other band by learning 2 songs specifically for you. Whether that is your First Dance and a Father/Daughter Dance – or just a song that is special to you both – The MSC take the time to learn and prepare in advance of your big day.

    The band can also tailor an entire day’s entertainment to your liking with a rich pool of resources that enables them to offer a one stop shop for DJ Service, Wedding Breakfast entertainment (Acoustic/Background/Vocal), Sax DJ, and PA hire for your Speeches and or daytime background music. This can take all the headache away from dealing with several suppliers – and you can rest in the knowledge that everything will be provided at the highest possible quality.
