OVERVIEW

If you're after a wedding band that will pack your dance floor, learn your favourite songs and perform heavenly music at your ceremony, The Knots are a terrific choice! Based in Bendigo, The Knots have a combined 20 years of experience, and have played their unique song covers at more than 150 weddings. They sound incredible, can play a range of genres, and will happily take requests.

Talented, experienced, and entertaining are the words we’d use to describe Melbourne-based wedding band, The Knots. This excellent band have been setting the scene for romantic ceremonies and joyful receptions for years, and have performed at more than 150 weddings to date. The Knots provide incredible music for all aspects of a wedding - from the emotional entrances to the first dance and upbeat reception. Versatile and flexible, The Knots can perform everything from dancefloor-fillers to acoustic song covers for your ceremony - whatever you need, they can make it happen.

So, who are The Knots? This talented band is made up of three excellent vocalists, two guitarists, and three drummer/percussionists. They take it in turns, so you’ll have the choice of an acoustic duo or three-piece wedding band for your ceremony and reception. Whatever you choose, you’ll be privy to some seriously heavenly covers when you book The Knots to perform at your wedding. From modern tunes to 70s classics, The Knots have an extensive repertoire of songs and artists to choose from - why not opt for some party-starters like The Killers or Outkast?

You can certainly pick your songs later, but now it’s time for the details: The Knots provide full set-up, a high-quality PA system, a wireless microphone for speeches, and plenty of open communication. Booking with this talented bunch is super easy, too. So all you really need to know is whether you want to book them in for just your ceremony, reception, or your entire wedding.

“Thank you guys so much for a wonderful performance on our wedding. We had the time of our lives and the way you performed was exceptional and enjoyed by every one of our guests which was easy to see given the dance floor was packed on the last set and there wasn't a single person sitting down! We would happily recommend The Knots to anyone!!"  James

What you can expect when working with The Knots Live Entertainment for your wedding:

 

  • A packed dance floor - The Knots are experts in playing the perfect songs at the right time to keep you and your guests dancing long into the night! Any time they're not playing live, they will have the perfect playlists pumping to keep your guests up and about as well.
  • Impressive repertoire. Whether Pop, Rock, RnB, Funk or Soul is your jam, The Knots have some tunes in their extensive song list that’ll delight you. There’s a bit of Ed Sheeran, some Madonna, Queen… The Knots’ eclectic taste in music means there are songs from the 60s through to current chart hits and wedding classics. 
  • Ceremony and reception. The Knots can learn any song you like in order to play it at your ceremony or reception. This could be while you walk down the aisle, as you sign the registrar, make your reception entrance, for your first dance...whenever you like, really! 
  • Incredible vocals. There are three talented female singers in The Knots: Lauren, Jessie & Kat. All of these wonderful singers have angelic voices that are sure to impress your wedding guests.

Here’s what else you need to know about The Knots Live Entertainment.

 

  • Duo or trio. The Knots have 8 band members, but two or three will perform on your wedding day. This includes a singer - either Lauren, Jessie or Kat, then either Kieran or Tim on guitar, and either Mitch, Danny or Jeremy on drums and percussion. It’s entirely up to you whether you’d like an acoustic duo or a three-person band.
  • Full set-up. Full set-up is included in your package when you book The Knots as your wedding band, they also provide a PA system and a wireless microphone for speeches.
  • Location. The Knots are situated in the Bendigo and Ballarat areas, but this team happily travels all over Victoria to perform at weddings.

 

“You guys were unbelievable. From the first interaction, to the night itself everything was made so easy by Kieran and the band. Their set list is fantastic, they played all the right music, despite us not providing them with any music or much guidelines, it was just perfect. They were all so friendly, professional and we cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you guys for making our Wedding Day so amazing!" Lauren

Thanks so much Lauren for your lovely review, we were very happy to play for your special day!

January 2021

The Knots performed at our wedding in 2018 and we can not recommend them highly enough. Kieran is an absolute delight to communicate with and replied promptly to all questions we had. The band were happy to fulfil all our requests including traveling to our venue near Geelong, performing requested songs during our ceremony and also performing our first dance live. They sounded incredible and we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to anyone! We had so many of our guests comment on how amazing they were! We can’t wait to have them at our next event! Thanks so much guys!

Thanks so much Rhylee - your wedding was absolutely spectacular and we loved being a part of it!

January 2021

The Knots performed at my wedding and were absolutely fantastic! During our ceremony, Georgie and Kieran performed as a two piece and we couldn't have wished for more! Thankfully we booked the 3 piece for the reception because Georgie, Kieran and Danny helped create the perfect atmosphere on our special day. Georgie's gorgeous vocals supported by the acoustic talents of Kieran on guitar and the percussion of Danny on drums was a dream come true! Thank you so much to The Knots for helping us celebrate our wedding day!

Is it OK to have a do-not-play list at our wedding?

Hi there. There are some songs I really don't want played at our wedding but I know some of my family will request it. Can I give our DJ a list of these songs - but how do they handle it with the guests? I don't want to offend anyone.

The Knots Live Entertainment

Absolutely, we all certainly have songs that aren't our favourite, and we want to make the music the easiest and most fun part of your day, so a 'do not play list' is absolutely welcome for us :)

Gina

Can you assist me in choosing the music for my wedding?

The Knots Live Entertainment

Absolutely, as a wedding band we know how to create the most memorable moments, from heart-stopping acoustic ballads as she walks down the aisle, to the best party starters later in the evening, we can recommend the best music for all the moments of your day.

Songs to walk down the aisle to?

The Knots Live Entertainment

A very special moment of the day of course, and it's great to pick a song that means a lot to you both, however if you have the 1 special song you've likely chosen this for your first dance, so here are some recommendations that we love to play for an aisle song:

James Arthur - Say You Won't Let Go

Elvis - Can't Help Falling In Love

Ed Sheeran - Perfect, Tenerife Sea

Florence & The Machine - You’ve Got The Love 

Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are

Christina Perri - A Thousand Years

Bill Withers - Lean On Me

Calum Scott - You Are The Reason
