"What a wonderful evening of entertainment put on by the Mendip Swing Big Band at the charity event at Camerton Hall. The band and the singers were amazing, they had everyone clapping and dancing from the beginning to the end."

Bryn Hawkins – Camerton Village Hall
"Thank you to all the band on an evening when over £900 was raised for the Radiotherapy Unit at the RUH Bath."

Bryn Hawkins – Camerton Village Hall
"thanks Mendip Swing for such a wonderful night; you are clearly a band which enjoys playing together and your warmth, generosity and sense of fun comes through in the music that you play. It was a great programme, with plenty of variety and lots to enjoy. You make a great sound and left us all with a ‘buzz’ and a smile on our faces…"

SS Great Britain, Summer 2025
“...we really enjoyed the evening .. the whole evening was very well organised. We were very impressed with the great deal of work and thought that had gone into the ‘1940s theme’. It was fantastic…”
“... I saw every kind of dancing to your music – Jive, Twist, Ballroom – people just wanted to dance which is a sign of a good band; folk really enjoyed it – many, many thanks…”
“... it was certainly one of the most memorable nights I’ve ever had … to have been able to stage such a great evening which was so enjoyed by everyone was a real privilege…”
“ What a WONDERFUL event you put on for us last night – thank you so much for such a vibrant, joy-filled evening: there was such a good buzz around the place, and I hope a good amount was raised for a very worthy cause.”
“A little note to say a HUGE thank you for performing at Clifton Fest; Mendip Swing were brilliant! "
