Almost Easy was great to deal with from start to finish. Our ceremony was outdoors and they were very flexible and communicative about what was needed to ensure it went as planned. Jason was a great emcee, super nice, calming and easy to work with. The band was also amazing, people were texting us for weeks after raving about them. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you guys again!

Almost Easy far exceeded our expectations. Guests of all ages told us that the band was awesome. It was also easy for us booking the band, DJ, and cocktail hour musicians thru one group. We cannot recommend them enough! They are also well priced for the NYC area

We heard Almost Easy at another wedding and knew we needed them for ours. This band is amazing! Our dance floor was packed the entire night and they played a great mix of songs. Almost 3 months later and our guests are still raving about them! Cannot recommend enough!

When we first started planning our reception we did not even consider a band. Then when we booked a traditional music spot as the venue we thought we would go for it since it was perfectly set up for a band. After scouring instagram for every wedding and bar band that plays in and around the Jersey Shore, we were confident that we should pursue Almost Easy for our reception entertainment and we are absolutely thrilled we did!
From beginning to end they were so fun and put on a fantastic show! MC Lou was the perfect vibe! They made us feel special and did exactly what we wanted which was to have a really fun reception party. They truly made the night special. Wish we could give more than 5 stars!

WOW! The one thing my husband and I insisted on for our wedding was an outstanding band that could keep the party going all night and boy did Almost Easy deliver! It's been over a week since our wedding and we still have people telling us how impressed they were by the band and how much fun they had dancing. Aside from being incredibly talented, and playing so many different types of genres of music, Almost Easy was professional, easy to communicate with, accomodating, and kind. Would hire them all over again if I could!

My husband and I are still on cloud 9 from our wedding! I've been in the event and hospitality industry for over 12 years now and I've seen a lot of weddings and events in my day - I still cannot get over how absolutely perfect and beautiful everything was! Almost Easy Entertainment was a no brainer as I have worked with them for years at my job. Truly - we couldn't be happier working with them for our wedding. Our guests are still raving about how wonderful the band was and how packed the dance floor was ALL NIGHT!
Joe, Pete, Andrew & Team: THANK YOU for all that you did for us and for making the process so easy and our day so special. You are true professionals and we feel honored to have been able to work with you!

We initially heard Almost Easy at a friend's wedding last summer and were left exhausted from dancing the night away, so my (now) husband had to grab their business card to get in touch once we were wedding planning and I am so grateful he did! Joe, his team, and Andrew our DJ/MC were so incredible to work with leading up to the wedding and made it clear that what we wanted to hear would be priority. We both love classic rock, mo-town, and punk rock, and MAN did this band deliver. With a wedding of about 170 guests, we had an absolutely packed dance floor the whole night and we truly did not want it to end. My husband is a drummer himself, and Joe was extremely accommodating to have him play a song with the band which was a hit with our guests! Such a hit that they demanded he play an encore! (See photo for evidence 🥳) It has been a few weeks since the wedding (10/22/23) and we have not stopped looking back at all of the videos/photos from the night! Almost Easy took a standard wedding reception and created a full-blown concert for our guests and we would not have wanted it any other way! We would recommend Almost Easy in a heartbeat if we are ever asked for music recommendations in the future, and would hire them without question if we have another big event!

Joe, his team, and Mike our DJ/MC were fantastic to work with. They were very organized and made the entire planning process very easy. Mike was the absolute best DJ! He played everything we recommended and added a lot of fun music in-between. I would recommend Almost Easy to everybody!

My daughter hired Almost Easy for her wedding this past weekend after we heard them at her cousins wedding. They are amazing, and worth every penny! The dance floor was packed the entire night, and the vibe was so fun! The band made the reception, all our friends and family raved about the band, the set list, and the energy! Would hire them again in an instant!

They say that people remember the food, the drinks and the music at weddings and we may be biased as the bride and groom, but Almost Easy easily made our wedding reception an UNFORGETTABLE night. Your interactions with us as the bride and groom were awesome from start to finish of the wedding planning process as well as through our big night and day. Our wedding was at Battello in June 2023 and we are STILL getting comments about the electricity they provided to the party. Their talent is unmatched between the musicians, vocals snd DJ you all totally understood the vibes/genres we were going for and our dance floor was packed all night long!! Thank you so much for bringing your best to our day and making it a party of a lifetime. Truly incredible ❤️ - The Bagli’s

Almost Easy was AWESOME! Finding an amazing band was really important to us, and these guys nailed it in every way! First, they were wonderful to work with. Peter was really patient, kind, and accessible throughout the whole planning process. Second, they sounded INCREDIBLE! They had our guests dancing the entire night, and people kept commenting on how wonderful they were. Jason, the DJ, was also incredible! He brought such a positive energy, kept everything running smoothly, and closed out the night with an awesome, high-energy set! We cannot say enough great things about this band and DJ!!!

If you are looking for a wedding band that can take the lead and keep the party going look no further! We turned over all control and decision-making to Almost Easy and have absolutely no regrets. Our guests were blown away by Almost Easy, someone even asked us to send our wedding ‘playlist’ to them because they loved their set so much! In addition they were super flexible. Our first dance song is a bit uncommon and was not listed on their master song list. Almost Easy not only learned the song, but they even created a unique cover to fit the timing of a first dance song perfectly. We were so impressed. They were talented, entertaining, and professional- we cant recommend them enough!

STOP YOUR WEDDING BAND SEARH HERE!
We had Almost Easy at our wedding about a month ago and as we finally sit down to write this review there are not enough words qualify our full support and recommendation for this band and crew.
Working with Almost Easy from start to finish was a great experience and they were 1000% one of the highlights of our wedding. A month later people are still talking about how good they were, how much energy they brought, and just how fun everything was which they played a big part in.
Their musical abilities are top notch, their showmanship and energy is contagious, and their lighting/tech provides an added touch which many wedding bands definitely do not bring to the table.
Our dance floor was packet from start to finish. We wanted a party and Almost Easy helped us make our wedding a night to remember. THANK YOU GUYS!
If you are looking for your wedding band, end your search here.... Lock these guys in and you will not regret it!!!!!

BOOK THIS BAND!!! From the moment we saw Almost Easy we knew they were going to be great. They exceeded all of our expectations and were beyond amazing at our wedding. From the music choices, to the ballads during dinner, MC, and energy they provided the dance floor was packed all night! All of our guests couldn't stop raving about how amazing the band was. They played a huge part in giving us our dream wedding and we could not recommend them more! You will not be disappointed!

I had DJ Andrew at our wedding and he literally made the wedding complete. I wanted a wild dance party and that’s what we got ! People are still coming up to me telling me they wished their wedding was like ours - and that’s all thanks to DJ Andrew. I don’t think anyone sat down the entire night !

Having Almost Easy to help us celebrate our special day was a huge highlight of our wedding day. As a musician myself, finding a live band was hands down the most difficult part of planning our reception. Almost Easy was exceedingly professional every step of the way, and accommodated every request that we had. The musicians are seasoned professionals, and their material reflects a dedication to their craft. The group is original enough to have a distinct personality, yet familiar enough to get even the most conservative people up and dancing. The number one piece of positive feedback from friends and family regarding our wedding day has been how amazing the band was, and how much energy it brought to our reception. There was also an incredible value to hiring Almost Easy, as they provided the emceeing as well as the lighting for the reception, which saved us from having to hire more vendors to fill those roles. I cannot stress enough the energy and atmosphere that Almost Easy brought to our wedding day.

We booked Almost Easy Entertainment for our wedding, first, because we already knew of them from seeing them play out in all of the fun bars, but with being a preferred vendor of The Asbury Hotel, it was a no brainer. We knew we were in good hands with the level of excellence the venue aligns themselves with. Joe and Pete were amazing throughout the whole process, and when we got to meet Eric, who was our DJ and MC for the evening, we knew he would have everyone on the dance floor- and he did just that! A nice add on offered to us, was the Mirror package (today’s modern photo booth option), which our guests had fun capturing the moment with fun props and photos. We really enjoyed the keepsake guest book they made for us, with everyone’s photos and special notes.
If you’re looking for a band or DJ, look no further and book Almost Easy!
Thanks for everything, guys!

Almost Easy was a wonderfully perfect band for my daughter's wedding. We hired their 8-piece band. Their music filled the room but wasn't so loud as to have any guests complain. The dance floor was filled the entire evening and we received many many compliments about them. Several of the guests who attended other events with bands were so impressed they asked for their name and contact information Almost Easy has an extensive songbook and were also able to learn new songs when asked for by my daughter. The wedding turned out wonderful and my family gives a lot of the credit to Peter's band!

If you are looking for a band that will have everyone dancing all night long, look no further! Words cannot express how amazing, talented and AWESOME Almost Easy was for our wedding on 02/19/2022! From our first initial phone call to the wedding, communication was so easy and they always responded to all questions and requests we had. My husband and I did a first dance song that was not on their playlist, and the band took the time to learn it. It was above and beyond our expectations. Everyone was on the dance floor the entire night and that’s exactly what we wanted! Their song selection was outstanding, and when the band was not playing, the DJ was taking over and everyone stayed on the dance floor!!!! We could not stop dancing. All of our guests still can not stop talking about how amazing the band was. Thank you again for such an amazing night and making our day one we will never forget!

They were the talk of our wedding! I’ve seen them play acoustic before, and even still my expectations were exceeded! They are fun, dynamic, and beyond talented. They truly made our night special by being interactive and fun. The planning process was a breeze as they are incredible at taking your vision and bringing it to life. Can’t say enough how happy we were!

Seriously just book them!! This band literally made my entire wedding. Everyone I spoke to at the wedding was asking me where I found them because they seriously are incredible. The amazing thing is you can see them play live before booking since they play at certain bars in NJ when they are not doing weddings - just go to their website and check out their calendar to find them or follow them on instagram. We had originally booked them for our wedding in 2020 but then postponed due to COVID and luckily they were available on the new date we moved it to - I honestly wouldn't have picked a new date unless they were available, they are that good. We ended up doing the 8 piece band and hired a piano player for our ceremony. The communication was perfect from booking them up until the wedding itself. My sister and some of the groomsmen sang in our ceremony and we were able to send them the sheet music and they even practiced the song a few times before the ceremony with the piano player - it sounded perfect! The band learned a new song for our first dance which was performed flawlessly. They make everything super easy for planning purposes by giving you a google doc folder with all the info they need you to fill out and their song list, which is HUGE! They played almost every single request we made and my guests were on the dance floor the entire night. 100000% would book them again and I hope one of my friends books them for their wedding so we can experience them all over again!

Almost Easy is truly spectacular. Myself and my guests could not stop raving about them from start to finish. Their talent and ability to read the room is second to none, and the flow of each set not only hit every single song/genre we wanted to hear, but got everyone in the crowd going, and everyone LOVED the versatility. Their communication and confidence from our very first meeting kept me at ease, and I can happily say that I was wholeheartedly able to enjoy every minute of the night because they took control and executed perfectly. I will continuously recommend Almost Easy to anyone who will listen. They really made our night!

The dance floor was packed the entire time and they play the greatest mix of songs to have all age groups on the floor. The amount of people we had rave about Almost easy being the best wedding they’ve ever seen was a lot - so highly highly recommend booking them for your day!

My wife saw Almost Easy 5 years ago at the Snow Barn in Killington, VT and knew she had to have them as her wedding band...and they did not disappoint! We had originally scheduled them for 2020, but had rescheduled due to the pandemic. They were fantastic to work with during such a stressful time. Prior to the wedding, they provide a detailed list of all the songs they played, and then scheduled a meeting with the MC Andrew to go through the entire evening agenda. We found a first dance song that we loved and Almost easy was able to learn it and play it flawlessly. They had a great feel for the room and the vibe, and kept people on the dance floor all night! We had people of all ages and music tastes coming up to us during the wedding and after, saying it was the best wedding band they've ever experienced and we couldn't agree more. Do yourself a favor and book them now. Thank you Joe, Pete, Andrew and the whole band! You made our night!

Wow, wow wow!! This band is amazing!! We originally hired Almost Easy because we saw them at a wedding and thought they were great but because of Covid we had to delay the wedding for a year. They were booked for the date that was available so we booked Almost Easy Too. They were beyond fantastic. The dance floor was filled for the entire party. At the end of the party everyone was chanting one more song like it was the best concert of their lives. We got the 8 piece band along with the DJ. Don’t hesitate and book them before it is too let!!

Almost Easy was absolutely amazing!! They kept everyone dancing all night and our guests could not stop talking about how great they were. Seriously, if you want to have everyone on the dance floor at your wedding, book Almost Easy! They will work closely with you to tailor your playlist and they have a great selection of songs to choose from. We had an 11-piece band so there was a lot of variety, but it felt like even with fewer vocalists and instruments, they could have blown the roof off the place. 10/10 would recommend. Check out their YouTube videos for yourself! They're the best.

Almost Easy is THE band to have at your wedding or any party for that matter. They worked with us to accommodate rescheduling our COVID wedding and certainly did not disappoint. From the very outset, they had our crowd dancing across all genres and nailed absolutely every song in their multiple set-lists. Everyone that attended our wedding has attested that Almost Easy was the best wedding band they have ever heard. If you want a fantastic wedding and you love great music and vocals, hire Almost Easy.

Look No Further!! This band kept the party going all night!! After looking at several other bands the wedding planner for my son's wedding suggested Almost Easy. They were so accommodating from the start. They truly made the memorable day complete. At the end of the evening my son's friends did not want to leave the dance floor and requested one last song. Almost Easy did not disappoint. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

I have been a loyal fan of the lead singer and his previous band for many years. It's no different with Almost Easy ,I've been a loyal fan since Day 1!! They are now a 5 Star Wedding Band and If I could, I would give them way more. The versatility of the artists in the Band is beyond compare. Some might say their performances out show the originals !!! The DJ that accompanies them was amazing. He fullfilled every request and knew what we wanted l to hear, even if it wasn't requested. I would 100 % tell everyone to have them at their Wedding! They really make the day feel like a dream come true!!! Coincidentally I mentioned to my fiance(now husband) , that it would be a dream come true to have them play our wedding. Thank you Almost Easy and hubby for making this Girls dream come true !!!

Look no further for your wedding band! 5 stars is not enough, Almost Easy is off the charts amazing. We had a DJ for our cocktail hour and 8 piece band for our reception and they did not disappoint! The DJ/MC was super easy to work with and did a great job keeping the event moving (intros, first dance, parent dance, etc.). Once the band started playing, the dance floor was packed all night!
We first saw Almost Easy perform at a bar and knew that they needed to perform at our wedding. The vocals, both male and female, are incredible. Special shoutout to the female lead, Bethany - Her voice transcends all genres, she can sing absolutely anything and make it amazing. The band did an amazing job putting together a lively setlist for our wedding that consistently kept people dancing the entire night. A mixture of classic and new music and everything in between - Both the older and younger crowds loved the music.
With everything going on with the pandemic, Joe and Pete were very responsive to the changes we needed to make along the way in planning our wedding. Easy to work with, professional, and knew what they were doing.
Our wedding was in the beginning of October and people are STILL calling us to rave about the entertainment for the evening. This band leaves a lasting impression and we cannot wait until their public performances resume so we can go to see them again!

I had first seen Almost Easy back when I was in college and immediately thought they were great. When it came to picking a wedding band, I knew I wanted them to perform at my wedding. Joe and Pete were great to work with, especially with all the constant changes during the pandemic. We had numerous phone meetings to come up with the best plan and package for my wedding, being that I had to change my plans three times. Ultimately, they were able to provide me with live music at the ceremony and cocktail hour and a DJ for the reception. At the reception, all my guests raved abut how great the live music was during the cocktail hour. I would highly recommend this band/ Dj for any friends wedding. Great people, and great music

We were ready to be married in August 2020 and although our planned had changed from having a 5 piece band and a 150 person wedding to a DJ and 50 person wedding - Joe their manager worked with us to help replan the event and worked with us so that we could utilize our deposits towards a DJ. Our DJ did a great job MC'ing and picking fun music to keep us dancing- even in the rain when our wedding night got a little crazy! We really appreciate them working with us during such a challenging year and although we would have loved to have the band play for us their DJ services were a perfect fit for our new smaller covid wedding.

Best Jersey Band!
This band is incredible! They did an awesome job at our wedding. By far they are the best Jersey band! I’ve seen my fair share of Jersey Bands and they definitely top them all! All 250 people at our wedding were up on the dance floor dancing. They really know how to get the crowd going! Aside from their great music, every member is extremely outgoing and nice! They are so Easy to get along with and are extremely personable. To this day, people still come up to us and tell us how amazing the band was. They bring an energy that no other band has! I would by far recommend them over any other wedding band!

5 stars seems unfair....they deserve more! Great band --we have booked them every year for the last 3 years for our annual Christmas gala which is as large as any wedding (100 guests)....Our guests never want to leave the party and every year look forward to the following year so they can dance the night away.....Besides the music, they are just great people to work with and they really enjoy what they do....Even Santa jumps in to enjoy the music....

Almost Easy is beyond the best band around!!! From the time they go on to the very very end our wedding guests were on the dance floor having a good time. They play something for everyone. Almost 2 months after our wedding we still have people telling us how amazing they are. We even have people who didn't even come to our wedding that heard how great this group is. We really really had a good time and I seriously believe the music is what makes or breaks a wedding. If you dont have good music playing guest will not have a good time. SO because of them our wedding was absolutely amazing!! If you are trying to decide if you should book them, dont think twice and just do it!! You will not go wrong!!

Believe all the 5 star reviews! We couldn't have asked for more energy and professionalism. Incredible voices, top notch sound, and the MC kept the night moving along without being intrusive. They really personalized the night’s playlist based on our preferences. The range that they covered included classics for the older folks all the way to current pop and rock hits. And they nailed every single one! We had all kinds of musicians and music lovers in our crowd, and every one of them was blown away. We loved them so much, we’ll definitely continue seeing them when they play down the shore during the spring and summer!

Almost Easy was fantastic at my wedding this October. Joe helped us set everything up, including finding us a DJ and MC despite it being short notice in their busiest time of the year. We had a beach ceremony, which provided some difficult accommodations for set-up, but the crew was punctual, fast and effective in their set-up. The music was great, the MC was incredibly nice and accommodating, and the entire experience was made better and less stressful by Almost Easy. I would entirely recommend them to any of my friends or family!

Almost Easy were amazing! Our guests did not sit down the entire wedding while they were playing. They included our requested songs and really listened when we asked that certain genres be avoided. The female lead was unbelievable! We were able to see them live before booking them which was great and we would recommend everyone does too as it was so much fun! They were easy to work with throughout the planning process. On the day they were organized and professional, having all the correct information and confirming no last minute changes were made. The MC did a great job and everyone had an amazing time, nonstop dancing all night and no one wanted them to finish. We cant recommend them enough! Our guests are all still talking about our band.

Every one in this band was professional, courteous, and most of all extremely talented musicians. Joe was our main point of contact there, and he was extremely easy to work with, and more then willing to accommodate any special request.
When I first got to my wedding venue, and saw the band set up I was blown away with the amount of professional equipment they had, including a full light show. I knew from that moment on these guys were a great choice! The band came with their own sound man, and MC who was able to entertain us the whole night long.
Almost Easy played a great variety of music, and all of our guests were very happy with the songs! They can play oldies, classic rock, jazz, and dance music, and do a great job blending all the varieties. What I want to drive home to anyone reading this is... One complaint you always get at other weddings is that the DJ is always too loud and you cannot hear yourself talk/think. We too were worried about this, because we wanted our guests to feel comfortable the entire time. That being said - Almost Easy blended their sounded PERFECTLY to the room. They were NEVER too loud. We received great reviews on the band following the wedding.
The nice thing about Almost Easy, is they play frequently throughout NJ, so you can check them out before taking the next step. (I found this very rare for other wedding bands we looked into.) Support this band - they are great! I know we will be watching them play live in the future. I only hope I will be invited to a wedding where they are playing !
Thank you again guys !

LOVE LOVE!! This crew was outstanding! My friends and family won't stop talking about "the band" at my wedding. AE was so easy to work with, such a smooth process all around. Their energy was amazing and the dance floor was packed all night! Thank you AE for everything!

These guys are INCREDIBLE! My husband and I had seen them play at a bar near us and immediately thought they’d be great for our wedding. The guests have talked about them nonstop since. I’ve had people call asking for their name. They cater to the crowd, they play a great assortment of songs, and they sound SO GOOD. Highly recommend if you want your wedding to be “the most fun I’ve had in years” as all our guests keep saying. Thank you Almost Easy - you made us legendary in our family!

AMAZING band!!!! Multiple guests (including a professional musician) came up to us throughout the night and in the days after the wedding to tell us how unbelievable they thought our band was! They had everyone on their feet the entire night – including some older folks who barely ever make it to the dance floor. They were incredibly flexible for us and did something that totally made the wedding – they allowed the groom (and his prior bandmates) and my dad (father of the bride) to use their instruments to play a song together, which totally rocked! It was such a special moment and the highlight of the reception for everyone!! I am so appreciative that they allowed us to do this as it is something I will never forget. They also read the room so well and played songs at different parts of the night that kept everyone going.
Our contact at the company (Joe) was very responsive throughout the planning process and was helpful in getting some specific songs played that we knew we wanted in advance. The band also provided an emcee who did a great job. We felt so lucky that we were able to book them during a busy wedding season and I would absolutely recommend Almost Easy to anyone for an absolutely amazing and fun wedding!

Almost Easy MADE our wedding night! They are such a talented group of musicians. Every song was perfect and they kept the crowd dancing all night long. We hired them for ceremony music, jazz trio at cocktail hour and 8 piece band for the reception. Almost Easy was on time, professional and a pleasure to work with. We received tons of compliments from our guests and would absolutely recommend them to anyone!

We hired Almost Easy to play at our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made during our planning process. They are not your "typical stuffy wedding band", these guys put on a show and know how to cater the music to your preferences and the vibe of the crowd. Our dance floor was packed the entire night from start to finish and the next morning everyone was asking how we found the band. In terms of professionalism they have their program dialed. They arrived at our venue and got everything set up and ready to go without any problem. When our cocktail hour was forced to run long they agreed to stay and play 30 minutes later than scheduled without batting an eye. I HIGHLY recommend Almost Easy for your wedding, and if you have any doubts go check them out when they play at a bar near you, I don't think you will be disappointed.

STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND HIRE THEM BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE! Your music is the only thing people will remember at any wedding, seriously. Music is compromised of 80% if your guests will have fun at your wedding, so look no further! Almost Easy had everyone on the dance floor the entire night, our guests have not stopped boasting about them, and neither have we! Almost Easy is like no other typical wedding band, they don’t read off of an easel and have a specific set of songs that’s played at every wedding...they rock out to every genre of music and kill it! They are the true definition of artists who will have any crowd dancing their pants off, singing along AND requesting an encore. Their creativity is second to none, how they pulled off a special request I wanted for my husband (a clip from a movie) I will never know...it was better than I ever imagined! The energy Almost Easy provides in undeniable, and quite frankly the single best decision we made for our wedding, and will be for you, too!

From the very beginning of our wedding planning, my husband and I knew we wanted a band, we wanted that level of entertainment no DJ could possibly give. We started our search and went to see a few bands live, but nothing felt right. Back to the drawing board and we found Almost Easy. We reached out and Joe & Pete invited us to check them out at their rehearsal space in Staten Island. Shortly after this visit, the band put us on a guest list at Just Jakes in Montclair so we could see how they perform live and how they work the crowd. We knew we had found the right band for our wedding! We worked with both Pete & Joe over the course of several months. We had requested the band learn an acoustic version of Safe and Sound by Capital cities for our first dance. We were a little worried about our choreographed first dance (as we were never able to practice to the Almost Easy arrangement), but we were able to run through it a time or two in the ballroom with the band while the guests enjoyed cocktail hour – when it was time for our first dance everything worked out perfectly! The band also learned the songs we chose for our father/daughter and mother/son dances, which was a nice touch! Throughout the night, Almost Easy played 3 sets, all of which included our requested 10 or so songs and they did the rest! They did a great job of getting all guests on the dance floor – and keeping them there! We couldn’t believe the amount of compliments we received on behalf of the band. Guests were raving about how amazing the band was – “the best they’ve ever seen at a wedding.” It is no exaggeration when we say that we received endless compliments the night of, the day after, week after and even to this day on our choice of wedding band. Almost Easy was great to work with and were flexible on custom packages and pricing. We look forward to seeing them play live at local bars and reliving our wedding night all over again!

We hired Almos Easy to play at our wedding recently and simply put... this band is amazing!! They killed it and truly made our wedding night a memorable one. The guests could not stop raving about how good they sounded ....and their setlist which covered all genres. They really put on an incredible show for us that night. They are professional s who care about their craft. They even learned our first dance song as a surprise! Book them! Maya & Brian 10.19.18

I honestly don't know where to begin! From day one, going to check out Almost Easy at a local bar, we knew they were the band for us! We immediately reached out to the band the following day and Joe was quick to respond. The level of professionalism and high energy that this band brings will leave your wedding guests wanting more.
Our first dance, father/daughter dance, mother/son dance and daddy/daughter dance were spot on. Playlists were awesome! Our guests never left the dance floor. My Dad is a huge Johnny Cash fan. Not only did the band play his favorite song, they actually called him up to sing it.
If you are searching for a wedding band look no further! We had the full band with horn section, which was awesome!
