Description

TOP TIER is live music at the highest level! We provide the best of both worlds—a fun, high-energy party band and a smooth, light jazz band all in one! So whether you just want a great dance band, or you also want some relaxing dinner/cocktail music before the party really heats up, look no further. Top Tier consists of top notch, experienced musicians with a passion for performing. Our band members have shared the stage with a diverse group of artists, such as Rick Springfield, Craig Morgan, The Cars, Tiffany, Ambrosia, and John Ford Coley.

Top Tier has a repertoire that spans 6 decades and encompasses many styles of music. Although we’re skilled at reading the crowd and gearing our song selection accordingly, this is your event. So if you prefer the music selections to be heavy on the 70’s, an overdose of 80’s, or a heap of more modern material, just let us know when you book us and we’ll gladly oblige. Of course we also take requests while we’re performing. When we do give you a quote, it includes learning two songs of your choice free of charge (first dance, father/daughter, favorite song, etc), PA/lighting system, and covering the Gigmasters booking fee. We will also gladly serve as Master of Ceremonies if you’d like.

Top Tier is a 5-piece band with 3 lead vocalists. The instrumentation consists of female lead vocals/percussion, piano/keyboards/male lead vocals, drums/male lead vocals, guitar/backing vocals, and bass/backing vocals. We do give you the option of hiring us as a 6-piece band with the addition of a versatile sax player whom we work with regularly.

Please contact us with any questions you may have.

***Here are referrals from wedding clients***

"Top Tier was amazing and exactly what we were looking for in a band for our wedding. My wife and I had met at an 80's cover band concert (popular band on the west coast) and it was important for us to have a band that could play that genre well. Top Tier did that and a whole lot more, playing jazz for the first hour and then playing everything from songs from the 70's to current country. We had asked them to learn a song, which they performed flawlessly, and were also great MC's for the evening. We were somewhat apprehensive hiring a band sight unseen (we live on the west coast and were having our wedding in Little Rock), but Top Tier blew away our expectations and we are so glad they were part of our big day. It was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding." --Tom P. (San Francisco, CA)

"I just wanted to tell you and the rest how awesome you were Saturday. Sunday morning much of the discussion centered on how great the band was. When I got back to work Monday, discussion from those who attended centered on how great the band was, my parents commented on multiple occasions that the band was worth the money, and on and on. You guys rocked it. The caterer said so. The mansion workers said so. The photographer said so. It was just good stuff. Do me a favor and forward this to the fellas, just let them know that everyone had a blast." --Matt H. (Charlottesville, VA)

Feedback

  • I can't say enough good things about this band. We had to make several changes from our end and the band was most gracious and went out of their way to accomodate our event. They are very high energy and have a great sound and set up. I highly recommend Top Tier and would hire them again in an instant!They are a great group for a very reasonable fee. -- Karen S, Pulaski, TN, 10/10/2009
