About


The Boogie Woogie Gals - as seen on national TV!

The gals have been singing together for years and they love all things vintage; from the hair and makeup through to the wondeful music of the era. Their songs include war-time classics, swing, traditional sing-alongs, 1950s rock n roll and modern chart songs done in the 1940s close-harmony style. Their passion for the music is infectious; you'll be joining in singing along and dancing in no time!

The Boogie Woogie Gals have received global press coverage due their involvement in the D-Day 70th Anniversary commemorations, singing for veterans aboard Brittany Ferries on the crossings to Normandy, a moving and memorable experience. They were featured in all the main UK papers, as well as BBC, Channel 4 and Sky News, in fact, their story went global and they even appeared on ABC News in America and Australia, as well as in newspapers across Germany, France and Canada!

The Boogie Woogie Gals perform to high quality backing tracks, or with a full backing band, and also offer an a cappella set. This is great when you have a passing crowd (i.e. at a festival or exhibition) or when you need background entertainment. If you want a more intimate feel, the gals can roam the room and sing to smaller groups of people or at tables - a more personal experience.

The icing on the cake was the Boogie Woogie Girls - they were incredible. Not just singers but entertainers - they engaged with everyone at the dinner - dancing and encouraging us to join in with the singing. They were fab - extremely professional and lovely to deal with. If you ever need vintage entertainers for any other client I would highly recommend them.

The girls are so friendly, very professional and engaging. They were a real treat to listen to with excellent vocal talents. The encore for more just shows how well they went down with the 200 strong audience ranging from age 4 to 86!! The audience participation made them stand out from other harmony groups. We will definitely recommend them and will for sure employ the gals again for my parents 40th anniversary next year!!

The Boogie Woogie Gals were incredible! The girls played to over 350 people at our annual staff conference and we received some glowing feedback - some of it via Twitter! They entertained and brightened up our day no end. I'd certainly book them again, or recommend them to others, as I'm sure would a number of my colleagues.
