Can we request a specific first dance?

If it's in the Ezra catalogue, yes - always. Outside the catalogue, we'll tell you upfront what's possible given the notice.

Will it be too loud for older guests?

Solo and duo sets are designed to let people talk. Evening sets are crowd-dance volume, same as any pro wedding band.

What if we want some non-Ezra songs too?

Totally fine. Tom's a working wedding singer - his full repertoire is available if you want to extend beyond the tribute set.

What if something goes wrong?

Full public liability insurance, PAT-tested gear, backup equipment in the van. Tom has never missed a booking.

Can you learn a specific song for our first dance?

Often, yes - if you give enough notice we'll learn a non-Ezra first dance properly rather than fake it. We'll tell you upfront if it isn't realistic.

Do you cover the ceremony as well as the evening?

Yes - solo acoustic works beautifully for ceremonies and drinks receptions, then duo or full band for the evening party. Book one act for the whole day.

How far do you travel for weddings?

UK-wide. There's a no-travel-fee core region across the North of England; elsewhere, travel is built transparently into the quote. See our coverage page for details.

George Ezra Tribute Act for Weddings

A George Ezra tribute act for your wedding - live singalongs that keep a mixed-age guest list on the floor from the ceremony through the last song.

If you've been to a wedding in the last five years, you've sung Shotgun. Probably twice. George Ezra's catalogue is on every wedding playlist going - the difference here is hearing it live, played properly, with a crowd that's already primed to sing back.

Wedding songs

Which George Ezra song works as a wedding song?

More of the catalogue lends itself to a wedding than people expect. Budapest and Hold My Girl are the obvious romantic picks - both work beautifully as a first dance or as you walk down the aisle, with the option to perform them in a stripped-back acoustic arrangement that suits a ceremony rather than a dancefloor. Paradise and Listen to the Man sit in the same lane for couples who want something a little less obvious.

For the evening, Shotgun, Green Green Grass and Blame It on Me are the guaranteed crowd-fillers. We'll talk through your shortlist before the day and confirm keys, arrangements and which version (solo, duo or full band) fits each moment.

Solo, duo or full band for your wedding

Solo acoustic for the ceremony and drinks; duo for a slightly fuller sound while guests mingle; full band for the evening party. Pick one format throughout or mix them across the day - most couples book solo-through-the-day plus full-band evening.

What couples tend to book

Three ways to do this

The Full Day

Ceremony → reception → evening. Solo acoustic through the ceremony and drinks, full band for the evening.

The Evening Focus

Duo or full band for the evening only - 2 × 60 minutes, bookending the DJ slot.

The First Dance Package

Tom joins for the first dance and the first 45 minutes of the evening. Good if you've got a DJ booked for the rest.

Why it works

It's a catalogue that lands with every generation in the room. Your uni mates know every word. Your grandma's heard Budapest on Radio 2. Your cousin's 9-year-old has Shotgun on a playlist. You get one live act booked and one crowd singing along to it.

“The dancefloor was packed before the second song. Best money we spent on the wedding by miles.”
