“One of my favorite new bands, Double Down performs with an infectious energy — you can’t help but tap your feet along. We’ve booked them for several gigs, and they never fail to make our events a smashing success. It’s hard to imagine that such a young group of gentlemen can have so much talent, but they made a believer out of me. I can't wait to see where they go in the future, as I'll be sure to follow.” ~ Tommy White Tie, founder of TommyWhiteTie.com, New York City's premiere lounge and swing website “This band has a tight sound and keeps the audience on its feet. I booked them for an annual dance event, and not only did our guests talk about them for weeks afterwards – they requested that we hire them for nearly every upcoming event we have. They’re the band of choice whenever you’re looking to throw a successful gig.” ~ Stacee Mandeville, event manager and featured dancer in Paramount Classics’s Mad Hot Ballroom “Double Down has an infectious energy that will delight your guests while seamlessly blending into the background, so that the spotlight stays on your event. They’re professional, remarkably talented and utterly charming — perfect for your most important events.” ~ Judith Ackerman, corporate event planner, New York City WEDDINGS Double Down will play cocktail music, the wedding march and the entire reception if you so desire. They will have your guests on their feet and keep them dancing all night long. “Double Down made our wedding so much fun. Their repertoire is extensive, and they played something for everyone — slow songs, fast songs, standards, funny songs, even songs for kids. They kept the whole party dancing for hours. Our guests still tell us how much they loved the music. Double Down was professional and courteous, and a joy to work with while planning our celebration.” ~ Kerry and Kevin “Double Down put on an incredible show at our wedding. They entertained us all night, opening with jazz and moving into many great swing tunes. They are each very talented musicians and John has a wonderful voice. Together they have a terrific energy. You can tell that the band is having fun - and it's contagious. All the guests, from the youngest to the oldest, got up to dance, and the band kept us on our feet all night long! My father, a long-time jazz fan, absolutely loved Double Down. We have received many compliments on this fabulous band. They were very professional and all nice guys. We are so happy that we had them play at our wedding. Thanks for making our wedding reception such a great party!” ~ Christa |
