reviews
Thank you so much for making our annual company Christmas Party epic and one to remember!!! We have heard NOTHING but rave reviews from all 600 attendees on how fabulous the band was. We can't wait to dance the night away with you again next year!
The band looks great, sounds great, moves great, and keeps everyone entertained and engaged. It doesn't get any better. As an event professional by trade I am telling you, booking this band guarantees a great party for your guests! - Event Planner
12 South far exceeded my expectations! Everyone including the venue staff remarked about how professional and polite every member was and how easy it was to work with them. They were punctual in setting up. Their actual performance was over-the-top!!! They sang every genre and were extremely talented. The showmanship was fantastic with lighting changes and costumes and great choreographed dance. The dance floor was not big enough to accommodate everyone who was dancing to the sounds of 12 South. The attendees would have stayed forever if the band had kept playing. I have had two people in the first 24 hours ask for the contact information on the band. Yes, they were that good. Absolutely outstanding and a total pleasure. - Committee Chair
When I first started wedding planning, I saw the review for 12 South that said if they aren’t available on your wedding day, change your date! Well, it’s true! They were literally the best band I’ve ever seen at a wedding. Everyone danced from the younger people to the oldest people there. They are like a real life concert. I’ve never seen anything like it before. No other wedding band compares! They were so amazing and they made the entire night such a blast. I love them and would not even consider looking at another band. Trust me, they won’t compare! - Wedding Planner
I have seen a ton of wedding bands perform, and very few even compare to the show 8 South put on. They played our wedding and were extremely easy to work with, very professional, and put on the best show I have ever seen at a wedding. 3 straight hours of non-stop performance. The dance floor was packed the entire time and everybody at the wedding was asking "How did you find this band?!" Do yourself a favor and book them ASAP. They are incredible. - Groom
My husband and I were married in mid-November at the Ritz Carlton, Atlanta. We are still getting compliments on how amazing the 12-South Band was. Even our wedding photographer said it was the best live band she had ever seen at a wedding. The band was professional, prompt, kind, and gave our guests a night to remember. The set list was perfect for guests of any age, and there was rarely a moment when the dance floor was not completely packed. If you are looking for a live band that’s fun, this is definitely the band for you! They were one of the absolute best parts of our wedding. - Bride
Northcrest Gala!!! Amazing!!! No one left the dance floor!!! - Gala Attendee
This band MADE. MY. WEDDING. I knew we'd booked a good band, based on the reviews and their incredible promo video, but I didn't even comprehend just how good they actually are!! They were better than any CONCERT I've ever been to in my life, and word on the street is that our wedding will go down in history b/c of 12 South. I probably should have talked to my wedding guests more, but I spent the majority of my wedding reception on the dance floor, having literally the most fun I've ever had in my entire life. My knee was swollen the next day from dancing, and I lost my voice from singing, but it was totally worth it. Don't even think about it, book this band!! - Bride
Hands down the absolute best decision my committee and I made for our fundraising event! This band had a good part of our 300 guests on the dance floor by the end of their first song and kept them there all night! They are as professional as they are talented. We booked them for the following year before they had their gear packed up! - P.S. Nashville is not an easy place to perform and they totally rocked it (even the country artists in attendance agreed). - Committee Chair
Choosing a band was probably one of the hardest decisions we made through our whole wedding planning process because all I wanted for my wedding reception was an awesome band that would create an unforgettable party. Well....I should probably rephrase; it wasn't the hardest decision but it was definitely the most time consuming! We found 12 South after a long search online of local and travel bands and I am SO THANKFUL we found them!!! We fell in love immediately with their energy and their music playlist of classic and current songs that everyone knows. They were so accommodating, they communicated everything quickly and really took control of the reception on the wedding day. Not to mention, everyone in the band took time to speak to me and thank me for having them, they were all seriously such nice and fun people. I kid you not when I say that EVERYONE at my reception was on their feet, dancing, and belting out every song. In all my pictures from the reception, people either have their arms thrown up in the air dancing for their life or their mouths wide open singing as loud as they can. People are still talking about how amazing 12 South Band was and about how my wedding was the best party they've been to. BOOK THIS BAND!!! I already have a savings account so I can book them again, for what? Who knows, but something! - Bride
No other band can make a wedding as fun as 12 South Band can! They are INCREDIBLE! Our guests never stopped dancing and were blown away that the band didn't take a single break. They kept playing hit after hit with amazing choreography. They came out and interacted with guests and had us on stage to dance too. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how awesome they were. If you want a really, really fun wedding band, get 12 South! - Bride
Here's the thing: This band MADE our wedding. At least 90% of our 200+ wedding guests were on the dance floor almost the entire time. All anyone could talk about how was incredible the band was -- and our entire wedding was objectively awesome. Their version of the horah was the best I've ever seen. They were fun, energetic, talented, responsive, and more than happy to learn the songs we requested. They even learned the Game of Thrones theme song for our cake cutting! Just...hire them, okay? You won't regret it! - Bride
We had 12SouthBand (actually, the smaller ensemble, 8SouthBand) play our wedding in Louisville, KY back in August & it had to be the best decision we made in our wedding planning! They absolutely ROCKED! The band was easy to communicate with in the planning stages and was on top of every detail. They catered to our requests for music during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception! They bring such high energy to their performance and got everyone, I mean, EVERYONE ON THE DANCE FLOOR! Having them play our wedding made the night unforgettable for us and our guests! - Groom
YOU GUYS!!! I know the 12 South Band has so many bomb reviews, but they deserve EVERY SINGLE ONE! We hired them (8 South Band actually) to play at our intimate 70 person destination wedding in Nashville, and it was seriously worth every penny and more! They are absolutely amazing! With such a small wedding I was really worried about the dance floor being full, but it honestly looked like we had 300 people there instead of 70 - every single person was on the dance floor...many of which HATE dancing! They bring such high energy and move at a great pace, you couldn't help but get up and dance. We received compliment after compliment on how amazing they were and that our wedding was the "best they've ever been too!" It was all because of 12/8 South and their amazing energy! Thanks for making our day incredible...and crushing our first dance song!! Love you guys!! - Bride
12 South Band played at our wedding, and they made it an unforgettable party! During the wedding reception, I couldn't even count how many guests came up to us to tell us "This band is amazing!!" We got married months ago and our guests are still raving about them. Everyone loved their energy, and they had everyone out of the dance floor the entire night. They were very professional, flexible, and fun to work with. And we loved that they learned 3 songs of our choosing. Picking 12 South Band was definitely one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process. - Bride
The 12 South Band was beyond words!!!!!!!I I can't even begin to express our gratitude to Jason and the rest of the 12 South Band for making our daughter's wedding the ultimate success!!!!!!!!! Jason, you and your band were amazing musicians, incredible performers and the ultimate professionals in every way! You had everyone dancing the entire night to the point that some were saying they never left the dance floor after the music began!!! There is nothing better than seeing your child happy!! Thanks for making this weekend magical for the bride and groom and for everyone who attended!! You are all so talented and we were so happy that we added that fiddle for that country set!!!! Soon many of our guests came us to us and said you were the best band they have ever heard. Thanks again to all.!!!!!!!! Can’t thank you enough! - Mother of the Bride
