New Jersey rock band Colossal Street Jam has released their single, "No Way to Live," with Independent, taste-maker label, Fretbar Records. With soaring vocals from front-man Gene Potts, Hammond organ by Eric Safka, melodic guitar in the talented hands of Sal Marra, and a rhythmic foundation from Dave Halpern, this new release has a music video slated for release in late November, followed by the full album in 2024.
"No Way to Live", the actual song , started out about the daily struggles in life we all go thru. The song ended up being the start of an album and songs that touch on so many social and emotional issues during a rough time for everyone in the world. We never set out to make a concept album, but it definitely has that feel when you go from song to song," said Gene Potts.
"We are very excited to have signed with Fretbar Records and Jimmy Warren Entertainment Group. The band will hit the road to support "No Way to Live" throughout 2024 and our single will be on radio worldwide starting this week." -- Colossal Street Jam
The single is available for purchase online.
“'No Way to Live' reminds me of what great rock n roll was in the 70’s. We believe fans are going to dive in and fall in love with Colossal Street Jam.” - Jimmy Warren (President, Fretbar Records)
