Live indie & rock for the Grade II-listed country house and spa, seven miles north-east of Bath. From £1,900.
Lucknam Park sits at Colerne, about seven miles north-east of Bath in Wiltshire. The original house dates to the late 17th or early 18th century and was substantially remodelled in 1919 to 1920. It’s Grade II listed, designated in 1960. The estate runs as a country house hotel and spa today under the Laskaridis family.
We’re a Hampshire-based live wedding band that covers Wiltshire and Somerset regularly, so Bath sits comfortably inside our home patch. No travel surcharges, no overnight accommodation, no anxious 4am drives back from the wrong end of the country.
Lucknam’s reception spaces have the kind of country- house finish that doesn’t need help. Our stage setup is built to dress around the room rather than fight it. Black-finished kit, restrained on-stage lighting rather than a stadium rig, and a PA sized for the room rather than the road. We dress in stage-blacks unless you ask otherwise.
A Lucknam wedding tends to pull a guest list that’s travelled in from London and Bristol for the weekend, with a strong Bath and home-counties core. The setlist flexes accordingly: Arctic Monkeys, The Killers and Kings of Leon for the late floor, Oasis and Stereophonics for the mid-evening, modern-pop crossover (Harry Styles, Dua Lipa, Sam Fender) layered through for the chart-aware younger guests. Wedding non-negotiables (Mr Brightside, Don’t Stop Me Now, Sweet Caroline) take the back-half peaks. Between sets a DJ playlist (collaborated with you) keeps the floor moving. We learn one custom first dance per booking.
Curfews, sound rules and any in-house production arrangements at Lucknam are managed by the venue’s own wedding team, and they vary by booking. We don’t make assumptions. We confirm the specific cut-off, limiter setup and any house rules with the wedding coordinator the week before, and pace the closing set so it lands at the actual end of the night.
If you’re booking Lucknam Park and want a band that turns up briefed, properly dressed and with the dance floor firmly in mind, send us your date. We’d love to be on your shortlist.
