PROVIDING THE UK'S MOST POPULAR ACTS

The Honey B's

Need a swing band for your wedding reception, private party or special corporate business event? Then The Honey B's are the swing band for you.

With their vast repertoire, these boys will keep you entertained.

They can keep the mood mellow with the smooth sound of Dominics unique voice, or pump up the sound for the party people.

Whatever you require, this band will deliver... with style... imagine, if you will, "two shots of Dean Martin croon, a slice of Frank Sinatra swing, blend that together with a healthy dash of good old Elvis ... Bang! you have it".

Highly Recommended!

This is Swing but not as you know it!

The Honey B's swingin' show-band have quickly established themselves as one of the most in-demand acts in the UK. Since bursting onto the scene in 2005, they have racked up an impressive list of show dates from Blenheim Palace to a headline show at the Abu Dhabi International Jazz Festival. Dominic and wing-man Nigel McGill have also firmly established themselves as the 'must have' act on the celebrity circuit with a client list including Simon Cowell and friends, West End stars Ruthie Henshall and Tim Howar, and the cast of Coronation Street amongst others. Throughout the UK their energetic floor show and swingin' rhythms have been featured at many corporate events for clients including Zurich Insurance, the Halifax (HBOS) and the World Refining Association.

Not just content to build an audience in the UK, Dominic and the Honey Bs jumpin' rhythms reached the USA and beyond in 2007 with their music featured on the soundtrack for Hollywood film Dorm Daze II and several American television series including Brothers and Sisters and MTV's hit show Runs House. Dominic’s version of ‘SWAY’ was recently used in a new Russian movie “Hitler Kaput” and is also available on the soundtrack. Dominic has a long-standing reputation as one of the leading lights on the Australia Swing circuit. His weekly energetic shows at Sydney's Harbourside Casino from it's opening became part of Australia's musical landscape. Dominic's albums received extensive airplay on Australia's national radio network ABC Radio, and he was awarded the accolade of Best New Swing Club Act in 2002.

Dominic's reputation reached as far as the USA where he was invited to appear alongside Las Vegas stars for the New York launch of the largest cruise ship in the world - the Grand Princess. After seventeen years in Australia, Dominic bid farewell and returned to his native England but not before playing a farewell show at the Rugby World Cup Final in Sydney.

Dominic's new Musical Director and fellow Australian Nigel McGill gained recognition in the UK as conductor for the 2003 national tour of the Nelson Riddle Orchestra. He has worked as Musical Director in the UK and USA for artists such as Lorna Luft, Al Martino and Las Vegas star Bob Anderson and currently his big band performs nightly for the hit West End show 'Ratpack - Live from Las Vegas' at venues all over the UK and Europe. Nigel's distinctive saxophone playing has been featured in jazz ensembles, big bands and orchestras at festivals across the UK, Australia and Japan and has even been featured on the successful American hit show 24.

Pip & Anthony, Wedding Event, West Yorkshire
We are just returned from our honeymoon and wanted to say an absolutely massive thank you for your fantastic set at our wedding on 3rd December. Beyond brilliant - was one of the best features of our day - we loved it - everybody loved it and we can't imagine our wedding without you. We will always remember it, and know that it kicked off a brilliant party in the best way possible - a massive surprise I think for most people, got them very much warmed up and into the party spirit, which is exactly what we were hoping for, but it totally exceeded our expectations. Really hope logistics worked out okay for you and that you weren't freezing in the barn! Lovely to meet you all, thanks for being so nice to us on the day despite potential high-maintenance involvement! Thank you very, very, very much!! And thank you Marie for your help and patience with my pre-wedding nerves! Happy Christmas to you all!

Simon Cowell - X Factor creator and music industry expert
Spot on! - you we're absolutely perfect

Elle Macpherson - Super Model
Thanks guys, you made the night.

Lord & Lady Devon
The Honey B’s were our only choice for our Uk wedding reception. They are fun, sassy and hot and guaranteed to get you groovin’! They also happen to be a wonderful group of people as well as phenomenal musicians and it shows through in their performance. We look forward to spoiling ourselves and our guests with The Honey B’s again as soon as we can!

Coronation Street Star Beverley Callard
I'd like to say a BIG BIG thankyou, you certainly made our party swing! I am looking forward to working with you all again soon.

West End Stars Ruthie Henshall and Tim Howar
Dominic was absolutely brilliant at our wedding reception! Fantastic music, fantastic voice and so classy. We had so many people wanting to know who they were, and letting our friends come up and sing was such a treat. We will certainly use him again.

Tom MacMahon - Sydney Sheraton Hotel
Great interaction with the audience and they make everybody feel special - these are only samples of the positive feedback I have received during your season with us.

Anne-Marie Marczan - Director of Public Relations, The Ritz-Carlton
It was a very successful evening and we were delighted with Dominic. Many of our guests commented on the great entertainment and some have asked for your contact details.

Donna McBurney - Royal Flying Doctor Service
I would highly recommend Dominic and his swing band to any organisation wanting a thoroughly entertaining, original and exciting band. I found them all to be highly professional, extremely reliable and highly co-operative throughout my dealings with them and this was ultimately demonstrated by their excellent performance.

Peter Davis - Director of Entertainment, Sydney Harbour Casino
There is no greater compliment I can pay Dominic than to say he was the most important pioneer we had at Sydney Harbour Casino and the confidence I had in him has been 100% justifiable.....

Keith Cox - Cruise Director P&O Grand Princess
.....non-stop entertainment is what Dominic and these guys from down under provided. From Barcelona to Istanbul I had the privilege of working with him on the inaugural voyage aboard the largest cruise ship in the world. I hope to work with him again soon.

Once again a fantastic performance and a great start to our conference. Can't wait to get you back next year!
