About

Why 1st Generation Band? Well, we are the WINNERS of TWO of Gig-MASTERS'S 2011 & 2012 Awards ( GOLDEN BEST BAND AWARD and The RISING 5 STAR AWARD for being the TOP Booked Motown Band). WOW! What an accomplishment 2 years in a row!!! 1st Generation knows how to keep em on the dance floor all night long!! We are also known as "Da ROCK-IT-SHIP" because the dance floor is always shaking and moving like it's about to take off!!! Our band includes the awesome vocalist Dennis L. Taylor, the Nephew of the "Legendary Singer Johnnie Taylor". His style is like Lionel Richie of The Commodores and Marvin Gaye.

Merging all of this with the Electrifying strong voice of our female vocalist Reci Reign, her diverse vocal style is in the likes of Tina Turner and Diana Ross. She sang the National Anthem for the Boxing Assoc/ESPN and for The Atlanta Hawks @ Atlanta's Phillips Arena. Reci also performs with the all-girl recording group Klymaxx.

1st Generation provides a wide variety of musical entertainment. Our diverse repertoire is a mixture of 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, and 'TODAY's TOP 40 HITS'; you, will experience all of this within the same night… which is a breath of fresh air. We don't put limits on what we can do.

Our service also include our very own "DJ - BAD MR. WILSON" who will keep your event exciting the entire night at NO ADDITIONAL COST. It will never be a dull moment from start to finish. 1st Generation services gives our clients total flexibility of their special day especially when it comes to their special request songs for the occasion. 1st Generation Band consultants works with our customers from the planning stages to the completion of their event.
