Outside The Box Returns To The Stone Pony On Saturday, February 18

originally published: 02/11/2012
(ASBURY PARK, NJ) --- Outside the Box, the Jersey Shore based rock band, will perform at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ on Saturday, February 18 at 7:30 p.m., supporting the Bobby Bandiera Band. Tickets are available in advance for $20 at the Stone Pony box office or online at Ticketmaster.com.

In 2008, Outside the Box was selected as the Stone Pony Summer House Band and have remained so for the last three years. Between 2007 and 2010, the band won Asbury Music Awards for '"Top Young Band'", '"Top Blues Band'" and '"Top Keyboardist'". They also received nominations for '"Top Rock Band'", '"Top Male Vocalist'", '"Best Live Performance'", '"Song of the Year ('"Suddenly Saturday'") and '"Top Drummer'".

Outside the Box will play songs off of their debut album, 'Bridge' (Schaeffer Records), released in July 2011, which includes eleven tracks and was produced by Asbury Juke member Jeff Kazee.

'Bridge' has already received rave reviews:

  • The Aquarian's John Pfeifer: '"While retaining that dirty Jersey vibe, ('Bridge') rocks with the rebellious spirit of Graham Parsons and Elvis Costello.'"

  • The Star Ledger's Jay Lustig: "Bridge," highlighted by "Love Is the Villain," a song whose driving energy and hint of a snarl reminds me, more than anything else, of early Graham Parker (though you can hear traces of Petty and Costello and Dylan in there as well).'"

  • Chris Rotolo from the Asbury Park Press: '"(Bridge) has monstrous melodies and choruses that will be engrained in the minds and on the tips of tongues of Jersey Shore beach combers for years to come.'"

  • JerseyBeat.com called 'Bridge': '"a winning surplus of raw energy, sturdy musicianship, and positively infectious go-for enthusiasm…a totally kick-ass album'".

    The album is available on itunes, www.outsidetheboxband.com or at Jack's Music Shoppe in Red Bank, NJ.

    Outside the Box has quickly developed into one of New Jersey's most dynamic new original rock bands. Formed in 2004, band members consist of Jeff Cafone (Guitar, vocals), Mark Masefield (Hammond B3 organ, keyboards), Francis Valentino (Drums), and Ryan Wheeler (Bass).

    OTB have shared the stage with artists such as Buddy Guy, Blues Traveler, G.E. Smith, Govt Mule, Steven Van Zandt, Jesse Malin, Ryan Cabrera, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, Joe Grushecky, The Smithereens, The Fab Faux, Jeffrey Gaines, and many more.
