What people have said...

We booked a 5-piece version of Bass12 as a surprise for our guests following our wedding ceremony and they didn't disappoint! They held back and set up in secret and played across our reception drinks. They were the perfect party-starter for a joyful day and had everyone clapping and dancing along (several hours before I think most people expected to be!) - we've had so many guests mention Bass12 as a highlight of the day. The communication was really clear and Mark listened and advised us along the way, and ended up creating exactly what we imagined. Thanks so much!

James & Lizzie - Wedding, June 2024

Bass12 played for my wedding, I've heard them a few times and they're always loads of fun.

They were so good, brought people up to the dance floor even during their soundcheck, and every time I speak to people about the wedding they are one of the first things that people mention as a highlight.

Great bunch of musicians, even arranging the floral dance for me which is a personal favourite, cant recommend them enough!

Will - Wedding, June 2022

Thank you so much for bringing the energy to our wedding day! The booking process was very smooth and Mark was quick to respond to any questions we had. We had an unusual song as our first dance but you guys played it perfectly and were able to bring the grooves and good vibes! Everyone was up dancing! This is the third Wedding we have seen Bass12 play and I hope there is a next time!

Sam and Dan - Wedding, May 2024

Thank you guys so much for everything, you were our favorite part of the day!

We hired Bass12 to perform and do a traditional New Orleans second line at our wedding this year. They were absolutely fantastic. Our guests were so surprised by the band as we hadn’t told anyone they would be coming. The band made the whole day festive and wonderful. Even from the start we felt confident with them as planning the set list and arrival of the band to the venue was so easy. The band was easy to get a hold of and reliable. We would absolutely use Bass12 to perform at any other party we have!

Cassie - Wedding, August 2022

Bass12 played at our wedding last weekend. We were never worried about our family and friends’ enthusiasm when it came to dancing, but Bass12 took it to another level. They had amazing energy, a great range of stuff for everyone and an overwhelming feeling of FUN from start to finish. We should have ordered a bigger dance floor.

Lots of our guests have been asking us since then for their details so if you’re thinking of booking, best get your skates on.

Lorna and Doug - Wedding, May 2024

We hired Bass12 to perform at our wedding and they were amazing!

The booking process was very easy and Mark was super helpful in the lead up to the event and very accommodating with our various plans for the day. They were also very flexible on the day regarding set timings etc and were happy to work with us. We had the Trio perform a set after the Wedding Breakfast which was a great way to kick off the afternoon. One of the highlights of the day was a musical procession from one part of the venue to another. The Trio followed by 120 guests - really special!

The two evening sets, performed in a giant tipi were brilliant, including our first dance which they did a special arrangement for. The band have an infectious energy which they maintain the whole evening and it is infectious. They got everyone dancing, young and old and nobody wanted it to end! We have been to lots of weddings and I know we are biased as this was our wedding but they were the best band we have seen at a wedding! All our guests could not stop raving about them!

Thank you Bass12 for making our wedding truly unforgettable!
