November 17, 2019Rick and his bandmate were amazing. We also had a swing dance troupe at our event and Rick coordinated with them to provide a spectacular experience for our guests. We could not be happier with Rick and intend to book him for future events.

Create It is a wonderful venue. The patrons were engaging and swing danced to our music. The owner were super nice and we can’t wait to come back.

July 3, 2019Cynthia, Rick and (sorry I don't have the names of the other two!) provided great music and were very accommodating to us and our event. We needed something classic and refined, but also fun and relaxed, and they delivered! Would definitely recommend!
