    The PERFECT wedding band for people who enjoy live, energetic music!

    Music has always been an important part of our relationship. Some of our favorite memories are of live music. We knew this was a HUGE decision to make, but not a HARD one. The Instant Classics were the clear perfect choice.

    They brought SO much energy and emotion to all of our guests, from the ceremony, cocktail hour, and first dances, all the way through to the final songs of the reception. We got so many comments from all of our guests about how INCREDIBLE they were. Some people mentioned they walked in for the first dances and saw us thinking "oh how beautiful" before realizing OMG it's LIVE music! We appreciated the quality of sound they brought to such a special dance.

    Many, many people literally can't stop talking about how perfect they were and how they gave everyone the energy to stay on the dance floor the whole night. We (bride & groom) didn't leave the dance floor the whole night - and it remains my favorite part of the whole day. Every song kept getting better and better. The last two songs were SO special. The whole night was SO magical thanks to the band. When we remember our wedding day, they will stand out in our memories.

    Amazing wedding band

    Great band that plays a wide variety of songs. Guests were dancing the whole night! Brandon was really easy to work with. They even learned our first dance songs which made it extra special to have them played live

    Hire the instant classics!

    We highly recommend you hire the instant classics for your wedding or corporate event. For our wedding ceremony we had their acoustic trio, playlist for cocktail hour and the full band for our reception. The ceremony was beautiful and amazing, and they had our every last one of our guests on the dance floor ALL evening (all ages included!) All of our guests talked about them the next day too. They provide an unforgettable and unique experience; worth every penny. Definitely hire them. The lighting is also incredible!

    You won't regret hiring The Instant Classics for your big day!

    Hiring The Instant Classics was one of the best decisions we made for our Wedding Day! Our dance floor was packed all night and every guest commented on how much they loved the band. The Instant Classics were easy to work with, some of the nicest people and are an EXTREMELY talented group. They have an extensive list of songs to play and they even learned a few special songs for our big day. I would highly recommend The Instant Classics for any special event. We will definitely be contacting The Instant Classics again 😊

    Outstanding entertainment

    The Instant Classics were the best addition to our wedding! They made the day even more special! Everyone had a great time and very much enjoyed listening to them play! We couldn’t have ask for more! They even provided the music for both bridal parties walk, the bride and father of the bride walk and the mother of the bride escorting to her seat. It was the easiest process and very professional. Huge talent in this band, a great time and have forever fans in us! Thank you!

    Amazing wedding band!

    We first hired The Instant Classics Band for my eldest daughter's wedding in November of 2018 at El Chorro. They were so amazing that we most recently hired them again for my younger daughter's wedding in April of 2021 at Paradise Valley Country Club. I don't have adequate words to fully explain how talented this group is! I mean this from the bottom of my heart! The dance floor was packed the entire time during both receptions and no one wanted the night to end! Brandon was outstanding to work with, very responsive to our needs and requests and made certain all of our expectations were not only met but exceeded! I know that sounds "cliché" but it's the truth! This group is so engaging, fun, and you can tell they honestly enjoy watching their guests have a great time. Don't hesitate if you are looking for a live band and a night to remember ~ Instant Classics will not disappoint! :) ( We hired a 10 piece including brass)

    If you hire one vendor for your wedding..The Instant Classics should be it!!

    The Instant Classics made our wedding the party of the year! Every single guest commented on how much they loved the music and the band. We had seen them perform many times before..but they sounded better and looked better then ever...at our wedding. Every single member of the band is as talented as they come and they couldn't be nicer people to work with. We wish we could relive our wedding every single weekend, just so we could have The Instant Classics front and center. Best part of our wedding without a doubt. Period!!

    Best addition to our wedding!

    Loved having the instant classics perform for our wedding! They were able to play so many different genres with a mixture of both male and female vocalists. They were great at entertaining and getting the crowd up and moving! I asked if they could play two specific songs that they did not have on their song list provided and they had no problem doing that at all. All in all, a live band is the way to go and the Instant Classics should be your top choice!

    The best party guaranteed!

    When I got married I knew I wanted to hire this band. Having seen them play for hours on end at a nightclub and keep people in the moment was exactly what any good party needed. So naturally, I spoke with the incredibly accomidating Brandon Lane to coordinate the reception and felt like I could have had him do my whole wedding! Very kind and professional. The band was the real treat though as they played the whole night and NEVER TOOK A BREAK! It was one of the best nights of my our lives in large part because of this band. Book them only if you want to have the best wedding you can!

    This is THE wedding band!

    Our experience with the Instant Classics was absolutely perfect. We saw them at a friend's wedding and knew instantly (no pun intended) that we wanted them to play our wedding. They're flexible with options of instrumentation. We loved the addition of the horns. It allowed them to play some of our favorite funk tunes. Their catalog is quite extensive with a wide range of genres perfect for any type of event. Finally, their execution is extremely tight. I was in a band myself for 8 years and could really appreciate every aspect of their performance. On top of it all, they allowed three of my friends to join them on stage and sing a song. Those three moments were some of my favorite minutes of my entire wedding day. I highly recommend the Instant Classics for any occasion. Thanks, y'all!

    The Instant Classics are the absolute best!! Never took a break and rocked the stage all night long! Guests were raving about them all night!

    I can't say enough good things about The Instant Classics! Brandon was great to work with, very responsive and had some great ideas about the setup for our dinner and reception. They play a great mix of music and keep the party going all night. They never took a break...rocked the stage for three hours straight after dinner!!! Our guests were raving about The Instant Classics that night and the next day. We could not have been happier with our band choice, The Instant Classics are the best!

    THIS BAND IS A MUST AT YOUR WEDDING!!!! When I booked The Instant Classics as my band I knew I would not be disappointed. I put all my trust in them and the did not disappoint. I had some special requests for songs that were not on their song list, instead of saying no, they did everything they could to make sure the songs were a part of our wedding. They exceeded our expectations. I will never forget the live music they provided at the ceremony, during dinner and at our after party. Our guest are still raving about them. I Highly recommend this band!

    These guys played my sisters wedding at the four seasons at Troon. They were absolutely amazing. They are the best wedding band I’ve ever seen.They had the whole wedding party dancing until one in the morning. I couldn’t recommend them more.

    Our guests still rave about the Instant Classics. Live music makes everything better! Large song list with something for everyone. Brandon and the band were super accommodating and learned the cheesy, but special to us classic “Islands in the Stream” for our first dance and they were the star of my brother-in-law’s social stories as this is not a band that’s afraid to interact with a crowd and get the party going!

    We absolutely loved working with the Instant Classics for our wedding!! They rocked the house for 3+ hours without taking a break and made our celebration a party to remember!! Our guests have not stopped talking about how great the band was since the wedding. From the beginning of the process through the end of the night of our wedding, Brandon and the band were amazing to work with and incredibly accommodating of all of our special requests. Everything throughout the night was perfect - from emceeing, to the memorable grand entrance, to the outdoor band for our first dance songs and dinner music, and of course to the variety of awesome dance songs that kept the party going until the lights came on. Can't recommend the Instant Classics enough! Get the horns - you won't regret it!

    Gone are the days of the "wedding singer"! While that was an awesome movie, the comparison stops there. This band blew me away! From the beginning planning, through the big night, the quality, professionalism, and all-around awesomeness of the Instant Classics was not to be beat! The bride and groom had enough to deal with, so having the peace of mind knowing that the band would be there on time (early!) and ready to go to welcome the guests was immeasurable. Such a large collection of songs in their repertoire, and they fit everyone's tastes (from the Bride and Groom to Grandpa and Grandma). The Instant Classics are your wedding band. You will be so happy you chose them, and your memories will last a lifetime! (Matron of Honor)

    The Instant Classics were one of the best parts of my wedding! We are a week and a day out from my wedding and we are STILL getting compliments about how great the band was. We had them play an acoustic set during dinner, which had everyone rocking gently in their seats and quietly singing along. Then we moved inside for dancing--where the real party started. They played all of our favorite songs so well and seemed like they were just having the best time doing it. Everyone kept coming up to me in amazement at how great they were. Another thing: for the first dance, father/ daughter and mother/ son dances, they only played about 2 minutes of each--which was the perfect time since everyone else had started dancing and was itching to get back out on the dance floor. They were SO professional, so much fun and if I could give them more stars, I absolutely would. If you're looking for an amazing, fun band to play fabulous classic songs with a mix of modern hits, I seriously could not recommend The Instant Classics more.

    Instant Classics played my daughters wedding last weekend and were truly amazing. Also played acoustic during the ceremony. From the minute the band started playing, the guests were remarking how incredible they sounded. The band was extremely accessible and cooperative in customizing the song play list and some very unique moments, including learning specific songs for the night. They kept the crowd involved all night long. Best wedding band ever!!!!!!
