Hey maybe you don’t drink beer out of a funnel anymore, but if you could roll out of your bed in your sweats for your macro economics class, you can roll out of your bed and head down to the nearest polling station and VOTE. Three positions in the JC Board of Education are up for grabs [a mother I respect endorsed Joel Torres 3H] , two important ballot initiatives [one that would allow a judge to deny bail!], our Senate and a House Seat, and the County Surrogate and Freeholders position. Want some more information ? While they are counting up the ballots, I’ll be at Norm Kirby’s Give em enough rope [no political connotations here, I think] from 7 pm on. Tell me you voted I’ll play you a song:)

OK Cowgirl (NY)

OK Cowgirl (NY) 
The music of indie rock four-piece Ok Cowgirl exists at an intersection of lyric-driven catharsis and dreamy, guitar-centric ecstasy. Fronted by multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Leah Lavigne and backed by Matt Birkenholz on drums, John Miller on bass, and Jake Sabinsky on guitar, the Brooklyn-based project draws upon a wealth of experience playing and working in bars, clubs, and DIY spaces across the New York music scene. Ok Cowgirl’s studio output reflects the outfit’s genesis as a live band, crystallizing around instrumental and vocal passages that spurred genuine reactions from crowds past. Previously lauded by Earmilk, Flood, The Line of Best Fit, Brooklyn Vegan, American Songwriter, and Under the Radar, Ok Cowgirl shared their highly anticipated debut EP Not My First Rodeo on December 8, 2021. Of which Atwood Magazine writes, "Ok Cowgirl pack a wealth of lived experience, emotion, and passion into these five songs, resulting in a record that is as catchy as it is cathartic and as intimate as it is intense. Whether you’re in it for the rock riffs or the raw reckonings, this EP is sure to provide endless entertainment all winter long – and it’s certainly earned Ok Cowgirl a space as one of Atwood Magazine‘s 2022 artists to watch."

Ruby Bones (NJ)
Paying tribute to all their favorite indie rock bands and instilled with youthful nostalgia, Laser Tooth Tiger merges overdriven guitars with classic rock riffs and an underlying sense of adventure. It’s a record detailing the trials and tribulations of being young while reaffirming that it’s all worth it and you’re going to be just fine.

Twice Removed (Jersey City, New Jersey) 
For the last two years, Twice Removed has been blasting through Tri-State basements, bars, concert halls, and graveyards with a no-rules blend of rock-adjacent genres. Made up of four old friends, they’ve been patiently painting the local Jersey City scene with whiplashing transitions from calm to chaos, lilting time signatures, and ear-worm riffs. They have released one EP with Cocoon Studio, and are currently preparing for their next release.

Twice Removed is Jake Shapiro (lead vocals/rythm guitar), Chad Servidio (lead guitar), Sean Dlugos (bass), and Mike Langenberger (drums).

Tula Vera (NJ/NY)
The dinner leftovers of 60’s rock with some modern-day spooky blues, Tula Vera’s sound shines through. Tula Vera is a four-piece rock band based out of North Jersey/New York. Playing shows all over, including but not limited to New Brunswick basement shows, clubs in New York, and shows in Philadelphia. The band formed in 2015 from the DIY musical depths of New Jersey by songwriters Claire Parcells and Dylan Drummond. Bassist Joe Jansen and Drummer Margaret Marino joined the group in 2016, the same year their debut self-titled album was released. This record solidified the genre-bending 21st-century rock vibe that is Tula Vera’s signature sound. Tula Vera just released their Sophomore full-length LP “Again and Again…”
