MARCH'S FEATURED VIDEO
As we March towards spring, we are sharing a video of EASE playing in Steve's hometown of Bellevue at Lincoln Avenue Brewery. Lisa and Grant have created a wonderful place and we have a great time visiting and playing there. We always break out at least a handful of Grateful Dead covers at Lincoln Ave. and this a a recording of Blackberry Blossom->Friend Of The Devil from February 22. It is something that we started working on with Stephanie when she sat in with us and have further developed with Allie. Enjoy!
FEBRUARY'S FEATURED VIDEO
For February we are featuring a video that was recorded live at Back Home BarBQ and Brew Co. in January. It was the debut performance of Milkshake, featuring Allie on the lead vocal. This was another of our songs that look to transcend genre's and keep true to our goal of good musicianship, a sense of humor, and having fun. Enjoy!
WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING
EASE on Ya Jagoff
Looking Forward to 2025
EASE recently appeared on the Episode 61 of the Podcast Ya Jagoff! This Pittsburgh based podcast is a very enjoyable podcast and EASE fit right in. After an interview with Steve, the band closed out the broadcast with a live version of Electric Chair Blues. We were able to figure out a few technical difficulties on our end in the knick of time and had a great time recording the show. If you get a chance, check out our performance. And while you are at it, check out Ya Jagoff!. It is an enjoyable podcast that features a wide range of people and happenings around Pittsburgh as well as featuring members of the local music community.
EASE is hitting it's stride as we look to the new year. A number of new songs, many sung by Allie, have become part of the regular rotation. Dave and Steve are also bringing new songs as well. There have been new song pairings as well as updated takes on some of the songs we have been playing for years. A sense of fun and adventure is evident as Allie completes her first full year with the band.

EASE MEMORIES
January 29, 2016 The First Gig
EASE played its first gig as on January 29, 2016 at the Monroe Hotel in Butler, Pa. Starting as a duo with Dave on acoustic guitar and Steve on bass, EASE opened for Tom Panei and Shawn Hartman and kicked off their hour long set with what would become a traditional opener, Oh Babe It Ain't No Lie and closed with their popular take on Merle Holby's Moonshine and Marijuana.
February 21, 2016 EASE is today's featured video on DEAD.NET
For the second year in a row, we are proud to have a video of ours selected as the Featured Video Of The Day on www.dead.net (the official site of the Grateful Dead) as part of their DeadCoversProject. This years video is of Me and My Uncle. It was taken before George and Henry (who have since left) joined the band, but remains a staple of our repertoire. Hopefully we will have more videos of the four of us to share shortly.
May 12,2018 EASE at Millvale Music Fest!!!!!
EASE played at the Millvale Music Festival on May 12. Though the torrential rains and lightening caused the stage at The Gardens Of Millvale to be shut down, the party moved into the adjoining greenhouse where EASE (which by then consisted of George and Henry in addition to Dave and Steve) was joined by festival goers for an enjoyable, off the cuff set.
EASE on Dead Covers Project 2022
EASE was featured on the Grateful Dead's website on February 5, 2022 as part of their yearly Dead Covers Project which highlights videos of artists covering Grateful Dead Songs. This year marked the third time that Dave and Steve were featured, but the first time that George, Steve, and Dave submitted a video as Ezra's Authentic Snake Elixir that was featured. This years theme was Europe 72. Click the picture below to watch EASE play Me and My Uncle.
