Lovely couple who provided rollicking German tunes and were lots of fun when we requested a few drinking game-specific songs!

The Swedish Meatballs were an absolute delight at my Oktoberfest-themed birthday party! From the start, they were communicative and professional, arriving on time and setting the tone for a lively and festive celebration. Their music was fantastic, and they had a wonderful way of engaging the crowd, from the youngest children to the adults. They created a playful, fun atmosphere that had everyone tapping their feet and dancing along. If you're looking for a band to bring energy and joy to your event, The Swedish Meatballs are a perfect choice!

The Swedish Meatball were exactly what we were looking for!!! They interacted with the crowd, danced with the kids, cracked jokes, and were overall very engaging and entertaining! Our guests LOVED the performance and we hope to have them again for next year's Oktoberfest! Ellen was so sweet and really added a lot of value to our event. I would highly suggest booking them!!!

Oktoberfest Party•Reviewed on October 9, 2018•From Summit, NJ

Love Love Loved them. So polite, accommodating, professional, and most of all.... FUN. I want to have another party just so I can have them play. I was a nervous hostess and Ellen put me at ease and did everything she promised and more. I can't thank them enough for entertaining my guests and ensuring everyone had a fun fun time. Highly recommend!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 14, 2020•From Royersford, PA

The Swedish Meatballs are talented, professional, fun and extremely accommodating to the needs of both the host and guests. They kept the party fun requiring minimal-to-nil guidance. I will hire them for all future events in which I'm looking for German entertainment. AWESOME!

Ellen was extremely communicative throughout the entire process and made me feel confident in booking her and Walter for my event. They showed up on time, and were self sufficient as I ran around the event setting up, etc. I would absolutely not hesitate to hire them again for our Oktoberfest golf outing next year. They are talented, professional and our golfers loved their performance! Thank you again!!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 19, 2019•From Hatboro, PA

Absolutely wonderful! Ellen (THE Swedish Meatball) couldn't have been more accommodating, professional or on point with her performance. She played for a 100th birthday party and was the hit of the event. She talked things over with me before I booked her and brought a guitar playing meatball with her. They were perfect. They arrived well before they were scheduled to play got set up and dressed for the show. They played the entire party...sometimes as a focal point and other times as background music. They even brought age-appropriate party games (Not easy when the guest range from 20 - 100!) The Swedish Meatballs are talented and entertaining. I highly recommend!

:

Thank you Jean! You ROCK! Thank you so much for having The Swedish Meatballs on your musical menu! Ellen

We had an Octoberfest themed party for my 90 year old mom’s birthday. We had a bunch of young great grandchildren. The band was great for the adults to enjoy and they played games with the little ones. They were just perfect for our party! ??

Oktoberfest Party•Reviewed on October 29, 2018•From Staten Island, NY

Fantastic, they came early to set up and decorate. I had nothing but very positive feedback. The biggest complents where that they werent overpowering so you could sit at table for good coversation and still listen to the great music. The games were a big hit with everyone either playing or watching. I cant thank them enough

:

Thanks very much! The Great Kills Yacht Club really rocks Staten Island! Loved performing at your fantastic event!

Private Party•Reviewed on November 1, 2018•From East Moriches, NY

We had a wonderful time with Ellen! Her accordion playing was amazing and she catered to our audience amazingly. She was engaging, fun, and friendly. She created an experience with her performance by including games that we all got a kick out of. Not to be forgotten, Ellen was extremely accommodating to our schedule and was responsive to our last-minute booking. Ellen even took pictures for us! She deserves 5/5 stars and more! Thank you, Ellen!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 26, 2020•From Paramus, NJ

So glad we hired the Swedish Meatballs! Ellen was easy to work with, very low-maintenance, and clear about their needs (2 chairs and electricity!) They added great atmosphere to my mother's 80th birthday/Oktoberfest celebration and even posed for pics with our family. Most of their songs were music only (rather than singing,) and that was just right for our event (but if you're looking for German sing-a-long, I'd ask them in advance if they do that. I didn't ask, so I'm not sure.)

:

Thanks Liz for having "The Swedish Meatballs" on your musical menu for your 80th Birthday Oktoberfest Pumpkin Carving Party! During Covid19, most folks fo not want singing, but if you had let me know, I have printed Oktoberfest sing-a-long sheets and we could have safely had a Chorus Line with your wonderful family. Next time! In the meantime, be swell and enjoy the holidays! ;) Sqweezing and Pleasing, Ellen
