3rd Class
Band
A band of day jobs and one shared habit. Guitars, bass, keys, drums and a front line of voices — playing the songs a room already knows the words to.
About
A surgeon, a lawyer, a chemistry teacher, and the rest of us.
3rd Class Band started the way most good bands do — a few people who couldn't stop playing after everyone else had gone home. It has kept growing ever since, and none of us do this for a living. There's a surgeon on drums, a lawyer on bass, a chemistry teacher singing the low harmonies, a jeweller on electric guitar.
What you get is a full stage: layered vocals instead of one lead singer, real guitars instead of backing tracks, and a band that has spent enough Sundays in a rehearsal room to read a room on a Saturday night.
We play weddings, corporate evenings, festivals and private parties across Mumbai.
