Unforgettable Live Music: The Best Band for Priston Mill Weddings
If you’re searching for a band for Priston Mill that’s, well, more than just music—you’re in the right place.
There’s something about this venue. Maybe it’s the way the stone barn catches the sunset, or the sound of laughter bouncing off those ancient walls. We’ve played weddings and celebrations at Priston Mill many times, and honestly, we still get excited every single time. The energy, the setting—it just works beautifully for live music. And, okay, we like to think we bring a little extra magic to it too. We have been a wedding band for hire in Bath for a very long time. Trust us…Youre in very safe hands.
Why Choose Us as Your Band for Priston Mill?
Here’s the thing: your wedding day isn’t just another event to us. It’s a celebration of two people, surrounded by family, friends, and an open dance floor. We get that. And we build every set around creating moments you’ll actually remember the next day (and the ones after that).
Whether you’re planning a relaxed rustic wedding or an all-out party, our flexibility means we can match your style. Our 3-piece, 4-piece, or full 7-piece band setups allow you to scale the vibe to fit your guest list and budget. We will make you look cool!
Our Approach at Priston Mill
We’ve performed here enough to know the best spots for sound setup, how to work with the acoustics in the Watermill, and where to keep the dance floor packed without blowing out eardrums during the meal.
We’ll typically start with a smooth acoustic set during your drinks reception, maybe even a cheeky request or two (yes, we absolutely take them!). Then, as the evening rolls in, the full band kicks off and—well, let’s just say shoes usually come off, and dance moves get…creative.
Set Suggestions: Built to Keep the Party Alive
We never use the same set twice. In fact, we’d ask you to create a playlist of songs you love and we’ll pretty much just play those. But to give you a feel, a wedding at Priston Mill might include:
- First dance: *“You’ve Got the Love”* – Florence + The Machine
- Upbeat crowd-pleasers: *“Shut Up and Dance”*, *“Valerie”*, *“I Wanna Dance With Somebody”*
- Anthems to end on: *“Don’t Stop Me Now”*, *“Mr. Brightside”*, *“Proud Mary”*
See our full set list for more ideas or let us build something bespoke. And of course make any requests you want. And…we’ll happily learn your first dance too if needed.
