SW5 Profile

The Susan Williams Five are a lively London based five piece jazz band. made up of female vocals, saxophone, drums, bass and guitar. With sharp arrangements and even sharper suits the band will transport you back to a bygone era of swinging music for swing Cats.

The bands style ranges from classic standards sung by the likes of Ella and Sinatra to the Jump and Jive hits of Louis Prima and they are guaranteed to get your guests dancing, whatever the occasion!

The Susan Williams Five are young, energetic and highly professional band that are at home in any musical setting, whether as the focal point of the evening or providing background ambience.
 

Quote mark A bit late, I know, but I just wanted to say thank you once again for performing at my party. We have had so many thank you notes and emails and all of them mention how wonderful the band was and how much people enjoyed your music. Good luck for the future and thanks for helping me to enjoy a fab party. It is one I will never forget
