History
Like all great ideas, it started with a dream. In 1997, the Village of East Rochester, NY was planning a centennial celebration and wanted residents young and old to share in the celebration. Band founders John Alfieri and Rich Herb attended a planning meeting and together thought it would be great to assemble all the musical talent from the village for one night! The initial band meeting attracted many working and closet musicians. They all shared in their love for music. The debut of the East Rochester All-Stars attracted some 10,000 residents and old friends to witness what was to be the beginning of something great. Best of all, it was fun!
Now, ten years later, the original core group remains. The East Rochester All-Star Band has evolved into a premiere show band entertaining Western and Central New Yorkers at festivals, corporate parties, weddings, and some of your favorite taverns. Their clients have graciously recognized the band's ability to provide entertainment for all ages including audience participation with that Mardi Gras feeling.
The All-Stars are not only great musicians, they have supported and opend for many of the best.
They have been the opening act for;
South Johnnie and the Azbury Jukes

The All-Stars features a wide range of musical styles. Known for its powerful horn section, the group makes the sounds of Chicago, Blood Sweat and Tears and Motown pulsate the dance floor. Powerful vocals and melodic harmonies will have you singing along to many of your favorite tunes. With the combined talents of local music educators, seasoned musicians, and a can-do spirit, the East Rochester All-Stars can accommodate any venue!
