The band was formed in Spring 2006 by a group of friends at Hills Road Sixth Form College, Cambridge. Since our first gig in September 2006 we have played a number of prestigious events including support for Wishbone Ash at The Junction in Cambridge, Strawberry Fair and Cambridge Rock Festival.
A few of the comments that have been made about us:
“These guys I think are gonna go far. They were incredible. Fantastic lead guitar solos and a singer who could hold a tune. I really enjoyed that ... and I don't often say that." - Alex James Painter, CUR1350 Radio
"First Copy did us proud - the Wishbone Ash fans appreciated the Flying V and of course the band's commitment to performing their own numbers, with considerable gusto. I am sure we will see more of First Copy!†- Dave Roberts, promoter of Wishbone Ash and Cambridge Rock Festival
“It's rare to find such a young band playing classic rock with such ballsy, mature, tight musicianship and with a great stage presence. They clearly enjoy themselves and evoke rapturous applause. First Copy are definitely a band to watch - catch em when you can!†- George Davidson, Stage Manager, Strawberry Fair
“They are definitely stars of the future. I enjoyed their music very much and what’s more they look like rock starsâ€. - Dominic Forbes, UK City Radio
