January 23, 2023AMAZING
We hired Justin and The SwingBeats for my dads 70th birthday and they definitely do not disappoint. From the moment I hired Justin he was over accommodating and extremely easy to work with. He has a great personality and truly made our birthday party a memorable event! Many of us didn’t stop dancing the entire night! He engaged with the crowd and was very personable. If I could give 10 stars I would! Can’t wait to to hire them again!!

Hi Cathy,
Thanks so much for you're amazing review and for having us play during your corporate event at Caesars Palace earlier this week! We had so much fun with your group...who knew that a cocktail reception would turn into a dance party with a conga line! haha. What a great night...it was an absolute pleasure working with you and we can't wait to see you all again on the next one. Enjoy the rest of your time here in Las Vegas and safe travels on your way home! 🎶🥂

September 13, 2019Highly Professional - Justin & His Band Are Amazing!!!
Justin and his amazing band were hired by our company for a 2 hour cocktail networking mixer during our annual conference in Las Vegas and they were sensational! The band played upbeat jazz and pop background music (which we requested) with Justin singing and was the perfect compliment to enhance our event. We were initially concerned about having a band and the volume being too loud for our employees to converse comfortably but the band was very mindful of our needs and at no time was the music too loud...it was perfect throughout the entire event.
Justin was incredibly professional and detailed through the booking process. On event day, the band was dressed sharp, was flexible and happily accommodated our last minute room change, and provided our CEO with a wireless microphone to give a speech during their break. They were very easy to work with and sounded amazing...you can tell that Justin and his band are incredibly passionate about and take much pride in what they do. We highly recommend them for corporate and conference work would love to work with them again! They know their stuff...if they are available, hire this band!!!

July 3, 2023Justin sang it out of the park!!!
I collaborated with Justin for months to create the perfect memorable musical event for my father's 90th birthday. Justin was a dream. An exemplar professional. Not only was every detail considered, and completed with perfection, but he is a talented and engaging entertainer. The event guests all commented on the entertainment and the talent. It was a live concert at home...nothing better than that. I would highly recommend Justin and his band...I will use them again when the opportunity arises...

September 17, 2019Outstanding Band - They Can Play Anything!
Our firm hired Justin and his 7 piece band for our client's annual corporate awards banquet at a hotel on the Las Vegas Strip. They were absolutely incredible and helped our client honor their key employees by playing recognizable pop songs that were requested to walk each of their awards recipients on and off the stage. Justin and the band ended the night with a bang by playing a 1 hour after party dance set which everyone enjoyed! This was a specialized event which required three months of planning and production... Justin stayed in constant communication with our producer and worked with him every step of the way through all of the changes and the result was a beautiful and flawless awards dinner. We can't thank Justin enough for all of the hard work he and his band put in to customize their playlist for this event and we are looking forward to using them again for our other
client functions nationwide.

About
A native of Michigan, Justin Dean is a Las Vegas based singer of Jazz, Big Band, Dance Floor Anthems, and the Greatest Pop Hits from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s to today. Justin has been a lifelong fan of Frank Sinatra and Big Band era music since he first heard Bing Crosby sing “White Christmas” at 8 years old while sitting in front of the stereo during the holidays. This "Golden Era" of big bands, and the legendary personalities who popularized them, shaped his musical interests and always reminded him of the best times spent with family.
While having roots in the music and spirit made popular by Sinatra and The Rat Pack, Justin is also influenced by many other artists including Michael Buble, Tony Bennett, Maroon 5, Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, & The Killers...to name a few. Justin's specialty is taking his audiences on a musical journey...one that travels through Old Hollywood with well known standards from the iconic crooners of the 40's, 50's, & 60's and continues on to a high energy party with the biggest dance hits from the 70s, 80s, 90s, & 2000s to today. From cocktail hour and dinner to the dance floor, the one thing everyone will remember is how much fun they had with Justin and his one-of-a kind band!
Since 2007, Justin has appeared on PBS television and been featured in some of the top 5 star hotels in Las Vegas, Scottsdale, Phoenix, San Diego, Houston, Santa Barbara, and Miami Beach while performing for many of the world’s largest corporations and their most important events. In 2015, after hearing Justin at the Italian American Club in Las Vegas, Steve Lawrence (of the renowned 50's singing duo Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme) said, “Hey, this kid’s good!”
Justin’s SwingBeats band members are some of the top, world class musicians in the U.S. His team is an A-list comprised of celebrity backing professionals...some of whom also play with Lady Gaga, Andrea Bocelli, Michael Buble, Jessica Simpson, Pitbull, and Celine Dion. The group specializes in providing high quality live music exclusively for corporate events, luxury functions, and weddings in major cities nationwide. Justin is passionate about using his love for music to make events an unforgettable party that keeps you and your guests saying, "Hey! I love this song!"
