The Swing Commanders are loved by fans of jazz, country, swing and blues.

On Saturday, June 24, it is the turn of the WonderWhys. Ooozing professionalism, charm, experience and musicianship, they are equally at home entertaining the most intimate of audiences – such as birthdays and weddings – with as little as 30 people, right through to large-scale arenas like the Alexandra Palace (twice) where 6,000 partied at Europe’s largest beer festival and a similar number supported the UK’s premier firework display the second time.

The WonderWhys said: “We’ve Rocked the Boat at Sea (cruise), had a Fun Day with The (Happy) Mondays, serenaded the squaddies (causing havoc) at the Barracks, threw one hell of a bash for Bosch, been the talk of the Walkabout, strutted our stuff at Butlins, boogied with the foodies at The Great British Food Festival, and been in favour with the ladies at Proseccofest…”
