Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 20, 2021•From Bethlehem, PA

The band was amazing. They were so good, in fact, that we asked them to play an extra 30 minutes. Without a doubt they were a highlight of the party - I highly recommend them.

Wedding•Reviewed on April 12, 2021•From Allentown, NJ

Despite us having to postpone a few times, Craig was able to accommodate all of our dates and we are so happy! 100% set the mood during the guest welcome and cocktail hour with their upbeat / classy jazz music! We received so many compliments about how great they sounded. We can’t wait to host another party to have Craig Satchell Jazz & Swing Ensemble to play!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 24, 2019•From Elverson, PA

Craig Satchell Jazz Band made our wedding reception really special. They accommodated many special requests - added a couple songs that weren't already in their repitoire, did a married couples anniversary dance, and let us select the entire set list. They did a great job emceeing the event. Craig responds to emails almost immediately. The whole band played and dressed professionally. They even allowed my wife to sing along for one of the songs. Price was totally reasonable for a 6 person band, no additional charge to drive almost an hour for us. Sound/volume was appropriate. Loads more fun than a DJ, Craig Satchell will take your wedding to the next level!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 23, 2019•From Harrisburg, PA

The members were all very kind and easy to work with but they lacked energy. I was looking for Dixieland band new Orleans style and the trombone was never played, banjo was softly played, trumpet and clarinet player was very good, tuba often dominated sound would of preferred him to play trombone instead. Acoustics in room could of added to issue with tall ceilings.

Celebration•Reviewed on October 23, 2017•From Philadelphia, PA

I was very impressed with Craig's professionalism during the process. He was able to make adjustments to the musicians he was booking for our party to fit our exact needs. Our 1920's Gatsby-theme party was thoroughly enhanced by the live music. Our friends loved the ambiance created by Pat and Kenny! We are looking forward to booking again soon.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on September 21, 2017•From Wilmington, DE

The band was awesome! Everyone loved the music and the singing. They were the perfect group for our 1920's event. They were warm, friendly and extremely professional. They were on time and ready to perform in Roaring 20's style. They were an integral part of making our event a huge success. - C. Bailey, Raskob Foundation

Celebration•Reviewed on August 1, 2017•From Bloomingdale, NJ

Craig Satchell Jazz & Swing Ensemble was a wonderful find for our special community event celebrating 100 years of establishment. Craig was very accommodating when I asked for variety of eras of music to celebrate 100 years. Craig surpassed our expectations for that evening everyone enjoyed listening and dancing to variety of music. The band professionalism was outstanding they made the celebration special and I would recommend his band to anyone.

Thank you Lissette! It was a pleasure performing for your event. The crowd was very nice and the venue was wonderful! Please keep us in mind for future events. Best, Craig Satchell

Craig Satchell and his group were absolutely wonderful. Even their warm-ups were impressive! Our guests were completely responsive to them and truly enjoyed their song list, stage presence and performance. I highly recommend them for any event and will definitely be booking them when we return to Philly!

Craig was very very very professional. I needed him as a fill in and he came riding on his horse like the calvary and saved the day.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 13, 2016•From Medford, NJ

There are no words to describe how pleased I am with Craig and the musicians he collaborated with at my wedding. Craig is the reason you hire a band instead of a DJ. If you have any reservations on hiring Craig for your next event, I would suggest picking up the phone and calling him. You will quickly find out that behind the musical talent, there is a highly focused business man who favors customer service over everything else. Kudos to Craig and the band. I'm actually looking for reasons to have a party just to hire him again. 5 STARS!!

Thank you Sophie! We all had a wonderful time performing for your wedding! Everything was very nice! All the best to you and Shane!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on July 22, 2015•From West Chester, PA

The purpose of our corporate function was to recognize associates and encourage them to continue to nominate their peers for great work inside and outside the workplace. The guys really got everyone into it and set the tone for the event. They are extremely easy to work with and very reliable!
