Choose Marleys Basement for your next event

Set the right tone from the moment your guests arrive. Marleys Basement provides polished, acoustic entertainment that enhances your event without overpowering it – perfect for networking, awards nights, conferences, product launches and end-of-year celebrations.

We focus on professionalism, reliability and seamless coordination with your event team, so the music is one less thing you need to worry about.

Step 1 - INITIAL ENQUIRY

When you get in touch about a corporate event, we’ll ask a few key questions so we can recommend the right setup and schedule:

  • Event date & venue

  • Type of event (e.g. networking drinks, gala dinner, awards night, conference reception, product launch, Christmas party)

  • Guest numbers and demographic

  • Desired role of the music:

    • Subtle background for networking

    • Featured sets (e.g. for a product reveal or post-speech performance)

    • A mix of both throughout the event

We’ll then provide a clear, itemised quote outlining:

  • Acoustic vocal sets for arrival / registration

  • Background music for networking, drinks or canapés

  • Live sets during dinner or formalities

  • Option for a feature performance slot (e.g. after awards or speeches)

  • Curated background music between live sets

Step 2 - EVENT PLANNING & CO-ORDINATION

Once you’re happy to proceed, we’ll work with you (or your event planner) to make sure our music fits seamlessly with your run sheet.

In this stage we will:

Confirm key event details

  • Venue spaces (e.g. foyer, main room, terrace)

  • Run times for arrivals, drinks, dinner and speeches

Clarify the mood and style of music

  • Laid-back acoustic covers for networking

  • More energetic sets later in the evening if appropriate

Discuss any key moments that need music cues, such as:

  • Guest arrival

  • Product reveals

  • Awards presentations

  • Entry/exit music for speakers or VIPs

Booking & Deposit

To lock in your date, we take a 10% booking fee once these key details are confirmed. The remaining balance is due one week before your event, so all logistics are taken care of and you can stay focused on your guests and the occasion.

Step 3 - WEEK-OF CONFIRMATion

In the week leading up to your event, we’ll touch base to lock everything in:

  • Reconfirm timings, access details and bump-in requirements

  • Confirm contact details for your event coordinator, MC or AV team

  • Finalise any special requests or key songs

  • Arrange final payment so all logistics are taken care of beforehand

This ensures everyone is aligned and your event runs smoothly from the moment doors open.

Step 4 - On the Day

On the day (or night), Marleys Basement will:

  • Arrive early for setup and sound-check

  • Provide professional sound equipment, appropriate for the room size

  • Perform acoustic vocal sets tailored to each part of the event, such as:

    • Guest arrival / registration

    • Canapés and networking

    • Background sets during dinner or formalities

  • Supply curated background music between live sets so there are no awkward gaps in atmosphere

Throughout your event we will:

  • Liaise with your MC, AV team and venue staff to ensure music volume and timing support, rather than distract from, speeches and key moments

  • Adjust the energy level and style of the music as the event progresses – softer during speeches, more upbeat as the night relaxes

  • Maintain a professional, polished presentation that reflects positively on your brand

Marleys Basement gives your guests a memorable live music experience while letting your event – and your message – stay front and centre.
