"The idea sort of started around 10 years ago but it took a minute to get it up and  finished; actually COVID was the thing that got me to finish it because I had a whole year where I really didn't have anything to do so I finished the studio," laughed bassist Jack Daley as he and Producer Marc Swersky discussed the creation and function of Dug Deep Production in Asbury Park, NJ.  "It was sort of framed and sheet-rocked but I completely gutted the building. I had the studio half built and then I had about three or four years when I was touring so much with Steven Van Zandt that I couldn't really get it finished but once COVID hit, I was over here every day."

"She's Like the Wind"

The first thing you'll see upon entering the gallery at Deep Space (77 Cornelison St.) is the shadow-outline of a woman's leg. There it is, on a chartreuse background, sticking straight up in the air with a curvaceous bare foot inches from the ceiling. That's all of the subject of "Lemon Lime Toe of God" that the oil painter Delilah Ray Miske is willing to show us. The rest of the body, she implies, is splayed out on a bed. We know it's summer because the window is closed and the air conditioner is plugged in. There's a pretty good chance that the possessor of the leg is undressed. In one hand, she holds a cellphone, and she might be broadcasting something. On the wall, a small whip-like broomstick hangs. It could be the ride of a tiny witch. It could be the professional tool of a dominatrix.
