Anniversaries & Birthdays

I have very little doubt in my mind that Brody Swain was actually born with a microphone in his hand. He has a rare and natural talent to know the right thing to say, and the right time to say it – whether he’s on air or on stage. As a host and MC he not only commands the attention of the room, he also uncannily understands how to read the room and ensure everyone within it feels like they’re part of something special. A gifted individual that will never disappoint.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Brody for around 15 years as a business contact and, subsequently, friend. He has always been supportive, loyal and enthusiastic to a fault. Never frightened to “get his hands dirty” and supremely conscientious, Brody is a tip-top communicator and great guy to have in your corner. His passion for the city of Coventry and the people in it hits you immediately, as does his ability to keep calm under pressure. Brody’s willingness to go the extra mile for charitable causes is to be looked upon with utmost admiration

We have worked with Brody in a number of different locations and in different contexts. Initially through radio, where he would always make us and fellow guests feel comfortable, relaxed, and welcomed. He was always supportive and gave a clear sense of being able to deal with any difficult situation with a joke, a sensitive nod or a comment that redirected conversations. This was also true when working with him at large events, such as ‘Christmas lights celebrations’ or the sporting events for which he hosted. Brody is clearly someone who knows his job inside-out and someone with the skills to adapt to any situation; a true professional.

Brody Swain is a master technician in bringing alive an event. He captivates and holds an audience in the palm of his hand from the beginning to the end of a showpiece event big or small. I have seen him in action from hosting marathons and presenting music concerts to assuring young performers at annual school events . A master in his craft .

I booked Brody to host a regional newspaper awards last year. He was a pleasure to work with in the lead up and on the day itself. He arrived fully prepared and did a fantastic job telling the finalists stories and being the glue that held the evening together. I have gone on to book him for several more events this year and am confident he will do a great job. Brody has no ego and is adaptable and amenable. Everyone likes him. He is a ball of controlled energy on the stage that helps a long award evening fly by. I would highly recommend him.

Emma Samways
Event Manager, inEvents.

I would strongly recommend Brody to anybody, who is looking for a host for an event/function. He’s hosted a number of events for my company and it’s safe to say that we have been delighted with his work. He has the unique ability to hold an audience with a combination of charm and humour whilst at the same time, commanding an air of authority, that means he’s able to control the room – something that it is not always easy to do when large numbers of people or alcohol are involved. Not just that, but Brody is also a top bloke, a nice human being who is interested about others and cares passionately about relationships and takes pride in doing a really good job. Simply put, book him, you won’t be disappointed!

Brody Swain has hosted the annual awards ceremonies for the Heart of England in Bloom for several consecutive years. We continue to book him as he is very popular with our audience. He always acts in a highly professional manner and is extremely reliable. We supply him with a script and running order for the awards and he delivers them very accurately and with professionalism. He has a strong and warm personality and his delivery is always laced with humour and enthusiasm.I would recommend him to host any event.

Paul Steed
Chairman, Heart of England In Bloom.

When I was Lord Mayor of Coventry, I came to know Brody, who was working with a local commercial radio station. Since then, I have attended many events in our city, either as an invited local Councillor or just as a spectator, where Brody was an anchor/presenter during those events, such as the Lord Mayor’s fund raising events, local Marathon, Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, and others. Brody did those jobs in a confident and professional manner, always very polite and entertaining.

Cllr Ram P. Lakha OBE
Former Mayor of Coventry

I hired Brody to host all of our Christmas parties at Dunchurch Park Hotel. Over this period we served thousands of guests. Brody was integral to the planning and implementation of each night. His enthusiasm and professionalism helped us turn the venue into the premier venue for Christmas nights! The success he brought us carried on for several years, and I cannot thank him enough for his dedication and commitment.

Stuart McNeil
Manager, The Durham Ox, Shrewley

I have known Brody for a number of years and have always admired his friendly, easy listening, style of BBC Radio broadcasting. I have also observed the very warm persona he projects in the hosting and compering of events. Although, on the face of it he appears very relaxed, Brody is as professional as they come and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this outstanding professional whether it be as a Toastmaster, Host or Compere.

Hamilton Bland
CEO, Rare Memorabilia

From the moment Brody Swain takes the stage, his energy and enthusiasm fills the room. His charismatic presence and magnetic personality engages the audience and sets the perfect tone for a night of excitement and entertainment. He has the ability to weave humour, charm and professionalism, creating an atmosphere that is both captivating and enjoyable. What sets Brody apart is his ability to connect with the audience and read the room, adapting his approach to suit the mood and ensuring everyone felt included.
