Our Client Reviews 
For the past FIVE years, New York City Swing has been volunteering their musical talents. Several times a year, they've energized and brightened the day for the young patients of Schneider Children’s Hospital. 

Dear Mr. DeQuattro and New York City Swing:

Once again, thank you for making our summer barbecue such a pleasure. Your presence there helped to make the afternoon one of fun and enjoyment. Having some of the children play your drums was wonderful.  

The expressions on their faces and their enjoyment of the music I’m sure created lasting memories for the patients and their families.  

We are looking forward to hearing you play again at one of our upcoming parties. Thank you again for a wonderful afternoon.

Sincerely, Steffi Schopick

Dear Dore:
YOU GUYS WERE AWESOME!
A little late, but sincere thank you for all that you did to make our 68th Annual Heisman Memorial Trophy Awards Weekend such a success.

Thanks to New York City Swing we are still receiving rave reviews from our guests.

It is a joy to work with such professional and dedicated people as you, and your multi-talented band. Please extend our thanks and appreciation to all of the members that were involved with our event.

I will call you soon with our dates for next year. We definitely want New York Swing for our 69th Annual Heisman.

Best wishes for the New Year!

The absolute greatest wedding band! Our one true request was to have our entire wedding on their feet the whole night, and that is exactly what happened! Words cannot describe the energy, talent and absolute fun that this band brought to our wedding night. It was a nonstop dance party from the minute the guests walked in until the lights went on. All of our guests came up to us remarking how wonderful the band was, and friends of ours at our wedding even booked this band for their upcoming wedding. We cannot recommend New Your City Swing enough! Book this band!

On behalf and me and my wife Lindsay, we wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU for performing at our band! The NYC swing crew ABSOLUTELY crushed it!!! When I first saw you guys at the Keegan wedding around years ago- I knew then and there you guys were very legit and that I wanted you one day to perform at my future wedding! This was one of the best decisions I have ever made- going with you! Several people asked us for referrals which we are happy to give and I bet more will be asking, so we will keep referring. 
Again, thanks again for performing during the happiest and best night of your lives! We look forward to staying in touch!
Best,
Matt and Lindsay Doyle

Dore:
We are still floating. What a wonderful wedding. Everything was great INCLUDING THE MUSIC. You and your band are fantastic. Music selection, mc’ing and the sound volume were perfect. Although we have to take follow-up comments with a grain of salt, many people said Sat night (except for their own kids’) was the best wedding they have attended. Comments include: we could hear ourselves talk, we recognized the music, we’ve never danced so much in our lives, vocals were the best, energy never flagged, etc. They are still coming in. 
We gave out your name to a bunch of people.
Again, thanks for a wonderful and happy evening. Hopefully our paths will cross again

New York City Swing played at my wedding on 8/18/18. Dore DeQuattro was so pleasant and easy to work with, as was Barb Coen! As always with live music, the fear is they will play too loudly and it won't be enjoyable. Dore assured us this wouldn't be the case and he really delivered! The volume was perfect and we had so much fun. These people are seriously so talented. I would recommend NYC Swing to anyone looking for live music for any event!!

Dore and his team were wonderful! I am a wedding planner and my clients booked NYC Swing before I started working with them, and it was a pleasure to coordinate with the band. They were fun, high-energy, and followed the timeline to a T. They were flexible as needed, and could easily accomodate a 45 minute hora at the client's request! Highly recommend.

NYC Swing led by the incredible Dore added a tremendous amount of zest, enthusiasm, flexibility, and joy to our wedding celebration! They offered great guidance during the preparation process, cared deeply about what we wanted to hear ( and what we didn’t), were extremely responsive to the crowd, and overall were outstanding partner and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend them to everyone!

This band is the absolute BEST band, hands down, no questions asked!! After the wedding, I had so many people come up to me and ask me for the band information. They were truly spectacular! It felt like our own private concert!! We had music from so many different genres and they were executed brilliantly! Book this band, book this band, book this band!!

If I could give New York City Swing 10 stars I would! They are absolutely incredible!! They just played at my wedding and were beyond amazing - they truly made the entire night and had the crowd dancing from the moment they entered the room until the very last song. My friends and family can't stop talking about how great they were and how much energy they infused into the reception. THANK YOU THANK YOU New York City Swing!!

Dore,
 ...the band was absolutely INCREDIBLE!! You guys had the crowd on the dance floor from the minute the reception started until the very last song and it was exactly what we had envisioned. The energy and pure excitement really made the entire night. I expected nothing less after the same experience at my sisters wedding, but just had to let you know. Please pass along our gratitude to the rest of your crew.
Thank you again!!

NYC Swing is incredible! We found them online and watched a ton of their videos early in our wedding planning process and knew we had to book them. The band was phenomenal every person at the wedding said they enjoyed the music from friends to grandparents, they made the night a fun event for everyone! The band played beautiful music for our ceremony and was able to easily accommodate our custom song choices for first dances etc. We fully trusted Dore's lead and we could not have been happier. The band kept everyone on the dance floor the entire night and our guests kept commenting on how amazing the band was. I highly recommend NYC Swing, their sound and overall vibe made our wedding into a memorable night for everyone.
