Makin Waves Record of the Week: "Local Honey" by Brian Fallon

After two solo albums on Island Records, Gaslight Anthem front man Brian Fallon has opted to drop his latest LP, “Local Honey,” on his own Lesser Known Records. For the Point Pleasant-based, Red Bank-raised singer-songwriter, the results are as sweet as they are cathartic. A gorgeously packaged collection, the eight servings of “Local Honey” once again recall Brian’s greatest influence: fellow Jersey Shore rocker Bruce Springsteen. But rather than emulate the youthful zeal of the Boss’ iconic ’70s catalog, Brian sounds like the Bruce of today: world-weary and wise. 

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...3/26/20

Sometimes things are what they appear to be and others; not so much. Such is the case with Syracuse, NY based rock band Epic Tantrum who have drawn comparisons such as this one from graphic artist Ioannis, "Epic Tantrum is like the bastard children of Rush and Steely Dan. Powerful clever songs with twists and turns and musicianship to match."

PODCAST: Songwriters by the Sea

Songwriters by the Sea started in Asbury Park at a coffee shop in 2008, with a tip jar passed around. Since then, it’s grown to a ticketed event, but with an informal vibe.

Rapolla is also a former music industry executive, and the chair of Monmouth University’s Music & Theatre Arts Department.

Big Loser Releases Video For "Blisters"

Big Loser is releasing their Black Numbers debut Love You, Barely Living on April 3, 2020. The Austin based quartet write anthemic rock songs with tinges of emo that draw comparisons to bands like The Menzingers and Spanish Love Songs. "Blisters," which has a brand new video, is a stellar example of what Big Loser has to offer. The guitars wash over open drums and the whole track bursts with soaring vocals.
