To put it simply, Steve Ezzo & The Monterey Bay All-Stars were easy to work with, amazing entertainers and made our wedding! Working with them to pick the right size of band, the right music for different part of the event was a breeze! They were always reponsive and professional. When it came to the wedding itself they MADE the party! All of our guests danced and felt comfortable with them. A month later, our guests are still commenting on how great our band was. If you're looking for a band that is going to entertain your guests with no stress to you, I would HIGHLY recommend Steve Ezzo!

We were SO pleased with our experience with Steve Ezzo. Steve did the ceremony music and sound set up for our wedding at Holman Ranch, and the band played at the dance. I wanted to surprise my husband with the band, and Steve's wife, Ann, worked with me tirelessly to pull off all of the organization that went behind hiding a 6 piece band!! The band itself was amazing, and surpassed any performance I've ever seen at a wedding. They were professional, incredibly talented, and accommodating to the music that we wanted performed at our wedding. On top of all this they were considerably more affordable than any other band in the Monterey area. Thank you Steve and Ann!

Steve Ezzo & The Monterey Bay All-Stars were incredible! Prior to the wedding, the vendors we met with all gave the band rave reviews and they did not disappoint! Steve was accommodating as far as requests. He also seemed to key into mood of the guests and played music that was perfect to keep the party going! His emcee skills were phenomenal. Absolutely 5 stars! One other asset I would like to mention is Ann Ezzo. She was an amazing help - keeping the event on the scheduled timeline. I really appreciated not having to worry about the schedule, knowing that she was focused. She also had invaluable suggestions. Many, many thanks!!

We loved Steve Ezzo and his band. their song choices were very good. Steve acted as emcee for the wedding which really kept things on schedule. Nobody wanted to leave when they were finished. All the guests raved about the band. Communication was excellent before during and after the wedding.

Truly can't say enough good things. The band was excellent. Had everyone dancing long after we as the bride and groom left. Best decision we made in the wedding planning process and we had ALOT of excellent vendors.

Steve + the M.B. All Stars performed at our wedding evening, which we put together in a short time. They came 1-and-1/2 hours to our event.
Steve + Ann spent as much time as we needed to talk about what we wanted.
I didn't have time to decide on some things; but Steve can give input, has great ideas if you are unsure.
They can provide PA, DJ services you may need during your event, including @ the ceremony.
We had a 6-member lineup: Neal and Lisa singing!, Steve (band leader and guitar master),
Richard (bass), Bill (keyboards), Mike (drums); Ann managed our engagement and made sure it went right.
It was just right.
They were amazing, from start to finish!

My husband and I wanted to surprise our family for our wedding with live music. We both come from very musical families so we had to go with a very special band. Finding the Steve Ezzo band was such a thrill. All of the musicians are so talented and thoughtful about their work. Working with Ann and Steve during the reception was a breeze. The band brought so much joy to our reception, our family will talk about it for years to come. We want to get married again just be able to work with them again!

The band was very good. Outsiders who were not part of the events wanted to come in because the band was so good. They all had great personalities and was great to work with them and have them play at our event.

Steve Ezzo and the Monterey All Stars are an amazing band with so much talent. We got their 8-piece band option and everyone at our wedding loved them. They played hits from the 60's, 70's, 80's, and even modern hits from popular rock bands. They were even able to play our first dance, and the Father/daughter and Mother/son dances! Steve Ezzo was one of the greatest Emcee's I've seen at a wedding and does a wonderful job at it. They were really easy to coordinate with and worked really well with our venue (Asilomar Conference Grounds). I'd recommend them to anyone, as they are the BEST Wedding band to hire in the bay area!!
