Hi Jamie, Just to say thank you so much for playing at our wedding on the 9th - you were incredible! Everyone has been saying how great you were, you really made the night perfect for me. I didn't get to speak to you really on the night, so thought I'd drop you a line. So thanks a million. You're brilliant! Love Jo. Wedding in Norfolk
There can’t be many better ways to end a showcase session than with a band like Jamie & the First Class. Complete in school blazers festooned with buttons, these are indeed a class of mayhem-making musical ragamuffins but with the undoubted ability to turn their hand to covers as wide ranging as Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Proclaimers through to Buggles and The Clash. They’re just a great sounding young band who could probably gig every night of the year if they wanted - and they probably do. THE STAGE
“Jamie and the band got the dance floor crowded on their first number and it stayed that way throughout the evening. Dancers of all ages thought the band was fantastic. You made it effortless!” Kerry Brooker -The British Pain Society Corporate Event, Old Trafford 2005
