Prayer, Friendship, and music - The 12:30 Mass Band is a family of friends in faith brought together by our love of music and helping others to pray. As a family, we ensure that the band is all about having fun and praying together. We are blessed to have talented musicians on vocals, piano, electric and acoustic guitar, banjo, bass, wind instruments, string instruments, and percussion to create a wonderfully unique and contemporary sound to liturgical music. Our main purpose is to weekly lead the congregation through prayerful music at the 12:30 p.m. Mass each Sunday. We also raise money for charities through our own in-house gig known as the St. Ann's Coffeehouse series. Here we provide coffee and great music of all genres from the Beatles to Jimmy Buffett. The band is often invited to outside performances and opportunities by different businesses and organizations.
PLEASE JOIN US!!! All are welcome. We are open to musicians of all levels and can provide a mentoring experience for their specific instrument and playing music during liturgy. Our rehearsals are Sundays 11:30 a.m. an hour before mass and an optional Thursday night rehearsal from 7:00 p.m. -8:30 p.m. if you are able to make it during the school or work week.
