The Big EZs is a local Asheville band that plays the soul and funk songs of New Orleans legends like Dr. John, The Neville Brothers, Allen Toussaint, The Meters, Earl King, Alvin Robinson, Lee Dorsey, Professor Longhair, The Wild Tchoupitoulas, and Snooks Eaglin; as well as classic songs from southern soul and blues founding fathers Ray Charles, James Brown, Otis Redding, Howling Wolf, Muddy Waters, Bo Diddley and Taj Mahal.

The Big EZs resulted from a collaboration between some of the most versatile, talented and in-demand recording and performing musicians in the Asheville area: Jim Aaron on harmonica/vocals, Parrish Ellis on vocals/guitar, Evan Martin on drums/vocals, Zack Page on bass/vocals, Jason Moore on saxophone, and occasionally a trumpet or trombone player. 

The Big EZs have played numerous weddings and private parties and are a kick-ass dance band, especially if you are seeking that greasy good-time N’awlins groove transplanted into the mountains of WNC.  If you are considering booking us for a wedding/party you can contact me and i’ll provide references who will attest to the awesome party power of The Big EZs!
