Overview

First Class is an Edinburgh based wedding band with a great reputation for filling dance floors across Scotland and the North of England.

FirstClassWeddingBand

The band is made up of five superb musicians including female lead vocalist and male backing vocalist. Each member of the band is vastly experienced in the wedding and event fields. The band was built specifically to perform at weddings but they also play at private and corporate parties due to the fact that they're able to keep any audience, regardless of age or taste up on the dance floor.

As wedding specialists, First Class offer to learn your first dance, even if it's not one they already do.  All we ask is 8 weeks notice and you can relax knowing that no matter your chosen song, First Class will do it justice.

If you fancy giving the dance floor a pounding with some ceilidh tunes, then First Class will take care of that too. They'll also expertly "call" the dances for anyone not too sure or a bit rusty.

So for a band that knows what they're doing, with a reputation for always delivering a busy dance floor and delighted guests, First Class is the recognised way to go.

The band pride themselves in being able to take requests on the night, even for songs not already in their playlist. They'll usually make a pretty polished job of any song - so just ask!

One last thing to consider; your wedding will have guests from 8 to 80. To keep everyone happy you need a band who know how to read a crowd. We're not aware of any other band as able to do this as well as First Class. You can't be in better hands.

A Scottish band as good as this gets booked up fast though, so make sure you don't hang around. Enquire now and get a free and instant direct price quote from one of the most in demand bands in the country.

First Class

Absolutely superb band! From start to finish First Class did not disappoint! We chose a combination of Ceilidh and cover music, both of which were unbelievable. They were able to play our first dance on request with ease. Our guests raved about the quality of the music and this made our wedding unreal. Cannot thank you enough for making our wedding exceptional. Would highly recommend First Class and would love to love to see these guys again.

Thank you all for such an incredible night. We had an absolute blast. Everyone was so up for dancing and you just read the room so well. We could've gone on for another hour! You guys really made the night, you sounded unreal. Truly talented and we genuinely couldn't have imagined such a fun, joyful night. Cheers!

A huge thank you to Gareth and the guys n gals in First Class. If Carlsberg did wedding bands!

The music they provided was ridiculously fabulous and every tune was a floor filler. They were the icing on the cake of a magical day.

Thank you Gareth and First Class. I can state quite categorically that if anyone is looking for a band for a wedding or indeed any function, look no further than these guys. Excellent!!

First Class

The band were amazing - I cannot recommend them enough!! The dance floor was packed all night! Thank you so much x

First Class

First Class played at our wedding reception and they were absolutely top notch – they really made the party. All our guests loved them and everybody got up to dance. They are a very accomplished and versatile band – great musicians and great to have both a female and a male vocalist; they have a great repertoire to suit all ages and play with brilliant energy and enthusiasm – great stage presence too. We asked them to play a new song at short notice and they accommodated our request – not an easy song to play and sing, and their version was just brilliant! They were very professional and very accommodating, and gauged the mood of the crowd well in choosing the tracks. The wedding was just a lot of fun, and the music was a big part of it. Thank you guys – you did a superb job, and we will spread the word.

First Class

The band were absolutely amazing! The dance floor was full all night and the band played requested songs that weren't on original set list l will definitely be recommending the band to our friends who get married in the next few years xx

First Class

There were over a hundred people at our birthday party ranging in ages from six to eighty. First Class are such a talented and versatile band that they managed to engage with everyone there and provided a truly excellent performance of first class entertainment,some of the songs they sang were so good you would have thought it was the original band and soundtrack you were hearing,perfectionists at the top of their game.
I have never heard a live band as good as this,so many guests commented on how good the band was ,I'm so glad we managed to book them.
If I or members of my family ever have a big celebration again we will without doubt try and book this band.
Many thanks to Hireaband too, their organisation and service was perfect.

First Class

First Class were absolutely fantastic and we could not recommend the band enough. So many people commented on how great the band were (a few people even said they preferred First Class over the band they had at their own wedding). Hireaband were also very helpful and kept us informed at all times of what was happening. We would also strongly recommend to our friends and family to use this service.

First Class

Thank you so much for playing at our wedding- you guys were absolutely fantastic! The guests are still talking about you now! You helped make our day amazing, I had a ball! Look forward to seeing you at another wedding, my friend will definitely be booking you once she's set a date! Great job, thanks again!

First Class were absolutely amazing!! So many commented on them and were buzzing about them for days afterwards.. I have even recommended this site to a friend who is getting married next year. Guests thought they had repeated a song but then realized it was the CD playing while the buffet was being served... tells you how good they are!! A+++++ Service!!! Thank you for a memorable experience.

Heather I would like to thank you and Del on behalf of myself and all the mess members at 6 SCOTS for providing us with First Class for our summer ball, they were fantastic and played a massive part in making the summer ball a great night. Regards

First Class

Thank you all so much for the fantastic performance at our wedding last week. You had a great mix of songs and really got the party going. Also really appreciate your learning our first song which wasn't on your play list. One of the best bits was when you invited our little flower girls up to the stage with you for their version of Twinkle Twinkle - they loved it! Lots of our guests have said you were excellent and one of the best wedding bands they had seen. Thanks again for a great night.

First Class

Everyone I emailed at Hireaband was really helpful, no hassle to deal with. The band was one of the most important things for us because it can make or break your evening reception and we were not disappointed with First Class. They were fantastic and the dance-floor was full all night. So many guests have commented that the band were fantastic and that it was the best wedding they have ever been to.
That is a lovely compliment for us and for the band! I thought that the Hireaband website and the wedding band showcase were great. Thanks very much.
