January 16, 2024We hired Steffen to play during our wedding ceremony, and he was nothing short of amazing! His music added the exact atmosphere that I was looking for; chill + happy and upbeat. Better than expected, really. Would highly recommend for any event! Thank you Steffen!

September 20, 2023If you are considering booking them for your wedding or event... do it! They are absolute show stoppers. The 5 String Swing performed for both our ceremony and cocktail hour, and were truly the highlight of our wedding. Steffen was great to work with as we planned our wedding, and helped our vision come true. They are so talented, kind, accommodating and easy to work with. We will definitely work with them again on future events!

January 31, 2023Steffen and the members of 5 String Swing were one of the highlights of our wedding! From the beginning, Steffen was extremely responsive and easy to connect with for planning and preparations. His musical repertoire is vast and his expertise in klezmer music was a major appeal. They created a beautiful ambiance for the ceremony, jazzed it up during the cocktail hour, and performed a raucous and energetic 30 minute horah! Our guests were singing and dancing to not just the classic hora tune, but so many klezmer classics. Toddlers to seniors were dancing and had nothing but praise to share about 5String Swing. Finding 5String Swing for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! Thank you for making our day so special!

December 20, 2022Loved these guys so much. They preformed alongside a jazzy, soulful vocalist playing classic swinging Christmas tunes for my holiday party in my backyard and it was a hit. The children loved dancing to the music and the adults enjoyed it greatly as well. Gifted violinist and guitarist. Will definitely book them against. A swinging Christmas!
