"Music means so many different things to so many different people but it is always apparent to either a casual listener or a concert goer when they are hearing something exceptional. The Vintage Swing Band brought a large crowd of people eager and excited to enjoy to music of a golden age. A rich sound filled with passion, fun and eagerness. The professionalism of the VINTAGE SWING BAND shines from every member and made for a powerful collaboration at OLD REPUBLIC. We cannot wait for them to return and fill our place with their notes of yesteryear - as I know everybody in attendance anticipates the next show." -Nick Smith, Owner | Old Republic |
"Sun City Huntley loved having the Vintage Swing Band for our Outdoor Concert. Despite the extreme heat, the band played their hearts out, with no complaints. After the concert, many people were requesting us to invite VSB to return for another concert in the future. We were impressed by the professionalism of the band and its leadership. Looking forward to seeing them at Sun City again sometime!" -Shannon Smith, (Sun City, Huntley, IL) |
"If you're planning an event and looking for live music, look no further than the Vintage Swing Band!! The band is wonderful and very easy to work with. They performed a site visit and discussed how they could help us envision and promote our event. They were partners and not just simply the "entertainment." The band sounded incredible and we continue to receive complements about the event. Thank you Vintage Swing Band for all your hard work and talent! You are awesome!" -Hoard Historical Museum |
"We were fortunate enough to have the Vintage Swing Band in St. Charles play at my brother's wedding at our home. Bruce and Pam, the band's leaders were friendly, kind, and passionate about making sure that they would be able to give the best performance possible for the event. The band was a huge hit, getting all of our guests from oldest to youngest dancing and excited! The song selection was fantastic, adding a classy and invigorating touch to the event, reminiscent of a Gatsby party. All of the band members were polite and played beautifully. We definitely look forward to bringing the Vintage Swing Band for any parties or events we have in the future!" -Brigitte (St. Charles, IL) |
“WOW! I saw this band in Milwaukee a few weeks ago & was so impressed! They play all the greats & kept the very active dance floor moving for hours. Sometimes, multi piece bands can sound a bit off but this was not the case with Vintage Swing. They are tight & you can tell they know their stuff. They have 2 singers. Both were incredible. Their voices were beautiful, with wide range and the ability to project over the instruments. If you want a fun night of Swing songs & dancing, I highly recommend going to see Vintage Swing Band!”

“‘It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing!’ And VSB has it. The enthusiasm and professionalism brought to each performance by these musicians takes you back to days gone by reminiscent of Ella Fitzgerald and her cohorts. You’ll be tapping your toes and singing right along. Ah…….”

"I wanted to express my heartfelt appreciation for the incredible performance! From the first note to the last, you had us tapping our toes, swaying to the beat, and singing along to all our favorite Christmas classics. The jazzy twist you added to each song was truly delightful, and your talent and passion for music were undeniable. Bruce, you deserve special recognition for not only founding this fantastic band but also for sharing your musical gift with your fellow residents. It's truly inspiring to see someone so dedicated to bringing joy to others through music. We are so grateful for the time and effort you put into making this show such a memorable event. You created a truly magical Christmas atmosphere in our clubhouse, and we will cherish the memories for years to come." -Cherian, (Elgin, IL) |
