​​​​​​​Makin Waves Song of the Week: "Gibraltar" by Defecting Grey

by Bob Makin - published 2025-04-18

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Each year-end coverage of Makin Waves features "The Dirty Jersey Dozen," a list of the 12 indie Jersey music acts that made the most waves. Two bands that likely would be on the all-time Dirty Jersey list are Gigantic, a Jersey Shore trio inspired by the primal pop of The Pixies and Nirvana, and Alternative Tentacles recording act Buzzkill, also a trio from the days when New Brunswick was the state's best music scene.

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...4/17/25

by Danny Coleman - published 2025-04-17

"Good to talk to you man, a pleasure as always," began the very talented Dave Keyes as he enthusiastically discussed his upcoming area shows on April 17 at The Twisted Tail in Philadelphia and April 19 at The Lizzie Rose Music Room in Tuckerton, NJ. "We are looking forward to it, it's always a fun place to play and we always have a good time down there in Tuckerton. I'll have Chris Bergson on guitar, a wonderful singer named Ellis Hooks, John Conte is playing bass and Diego Voglino on drums. So, we have five of us and Chris, myself and Ellis split the vocal duties, we all have our own material that we'll be doing; some original stuff, Ellis sings some Sam Cooke stuff, he's kind of an older soul R&B kinda' guy so we mix it up and he's been doing some gigs with chris for quite a while. Chris's stuff is a little jazzier, mine is a little more Boogie Woogie oriented so we have a good time up there."
