Wedding Bands

We are In2ition....a nine piece band playing all the best of funk, R&B, soul, dance, and pop music.

"Desert Brew Band" is a five-member group which has been together since 2000, playing a variety of venues: private parties, weddings, grand openings and many other events. We have entertained all over the valley and surrounding areas. Our band was honored to be chosen to open at the Scottsdale Performing Arts for a special event, also Peoria Sports Complex, and Desert Ridge Marketplace. We play cover tunes that made the charts, to tempt any age group to get up on the dance floor. We are able to set a relaxed mood for events that include dinner, and then move into a dance fever so contagious, it gets, and keeps the dance floor moving! Our interaction with the guests makes them feel a part of the event, not just another audience! We are very sensitive to their requests, and we ask them what they'd like. We are known for our vocals and harmonies, covering songs the way the artists did them! We are happy to add special music chosen from cd by the bride and groom, as well as following a format for announcements. We have professional equipment, professional look, sound, and accent lighting. We feel we are a perfect wedding band because of the versatility of our music. Our goal is always to consider the crowd and play what they can dance to. At a Wedding, the Bride and Groom are always the focal point. It should be a day that everyone will talk about for years to come! Call us, and we can design a very personal package to suit both Bride & Groom. We have a website, and recently joined facebook.

Like the doors swinging open of an old saloon, Aces n Eights has everyone turning their heads to see who is coming through. This four-member band is really making a statement. Their style is unique, in the manner that they play a great variety of music ranging from Shania Twain to Judas Priest. Each of the members has brought their own flair to the stage. Martin Etcheverry on lead guitar and also adding vocals, he is considered the "blues man,: Tim Myers, on drums, is the "funk soul brother." Marc Franquero, on the bass, is the "soul man" and Laurie Etcheverry, lead vocal and rhythm guitar, is the "rocker girl" but she can sing a country song to make your heart melt. Each of these members brings such an electric variety that mixed together produce a sound like no other band around. Their influences and experiences vary greatly, but each member has devoted a large portion of their lives to music. Their attitude is very positive and the electric variety is great.
