EZ Band

EZ Band’s story begins with Agustin, Jaime’s father, who laid the foundation for the group’s passion for music by singing on buses in Mexico. Accompanied by Nacho on the accordion, Agustin would travel around Mexico, playing music on buses to make a living and share their art with passengers. At the age of 17, Agustin learned to play the bajosexto from Atilano Ochoa of Los Montañeses del Alamo, deepening his connection to the rich musical traditions that would later shape EZ Band. He passed down his love for music to his family, shaping the path that led to the formation of the band.

Originally known as Viento Norteño, the band was started by Agustin, alongside Jaime’s uncle Niko and Kiko. These early years marked the beginning of a journey rich in tradition and dedication. The band evolved through name changes and new members, becoming Rebelde Norteño when Jaime’s brother Aldo joined on accordion. This period of growth and transformation highlighted the band’s focus on developing a dynamic sound.

Later, the band transitioned to the name Enzzamble, embracing a variety band approach that still influences their performances today. For Jaime, these formative years were pivotal—playing through every instrument, from drums and bass to accordion and bajosexto. This immersive experience not only cultivated his deep musical knowledge but also established him as a multi-instrumentalist. Growing up in the United States, Jaime was exposed to pop culture and modern music alongside his experiences in the Norteño band. This unique blend of influences helped create the innovative mix that defines EZ Band’s signature sound.

His journey expanded even further during high school, where he played the trumpet in the school band. This experience exposed him to the diverse array of music performed at football games as well as classical compositions during the off-season. It broadened his musical perspective and opened his ears to different genres, enriching his ability to blend styles seamlessly.

EZ Band’s current lineup consists of Jaime as the lead vocalist, producer, and leader of the band; Agustin providing vocals for classical Norteño songs; Aldo, the skilled accordion player; Dulce, the female vocalist; Juan, also known as Johnny, on electric guitar; Rigo, the drummer; Jesse, the conga player and hype man; and Lalo on bass, who has been an integral part of the band for over 20 years.
