Cherry Suede
"I'll Be Waiting"

Released in 2013

Cherry Suede was a rock band from Canada that began in the 2000s. They used to play quite a few shows in New Jersey due to their Bon Jovi-influence sound. I think this is their best song. I took the band on a tour of Asbury Park one day and pointed out where the clubs of the past used to be located. That was during the period of time when Asbury was a ghost town.
