(NORTH HALEDON, NJ) -- New Jersey rock veterans Reality Suite released their latest single, "Insane," inviting listeners to delve into the raw emotions of adulthood. This captivating track delves into the struggles of feeling ensnared in the unyielding cycle of societal expectations and pressures, prompting introspection on one's own sanity. With "Insane," the band encapsulates the frustrations and monotony that many individuals grapple with daily, inviting audiences to connect on a profound level.

Formed in North Haledon, New Jersey by childhood friends Brian King (drums,) Antonio Valenti (bass,) and Joe Padula (guitars) – their ambitions have been to produce heavy, melodic rock. After several male and female vocalists, Kimmii Heart joined in 2013 establishing the definitive line-up known today worldwide. 

“Reality Suite is a bit of a New Jersey super-group. Their fusion of modern and classic rock is a fairly compelling mix since they really don’t sound like any other indie band I can think of," -  Jim Testa, founder of Jersey Beat fanzine.

WRAT 95.9FM radio DJ Tom Hanley stated in his blog, "The female-fronted hard rock act puts out a modern arena rock sound comprised of killer vocals, complex instrumentals, and meaningful lyrics."

Julie Byrne Storm King Arts Center Concert Review

Serendipity ruled the day last week when my wife Irene Fizer spotted an upcoming outdoor concert taking place in the Hudson Valley,  featuring the singer-songwriter Julie Byrne and the harpist Mary Lattimore.  Irene and I had been planning to check out the event space–the Storm King Arts Center in New Windsor, New York–for quite a while, as we’ve passed the Center several times over the past few years, on our way to DIA-Beacon. So, we felt fortunate to secure two tickets a few days before the show, and we started to plan what to pack for our al fresco dinner.  Although we missed the chance to partake in the picnic specials offered by several food vendors at the Center that night, we filled our own picnic basket with some gluten-free treats, and then set out for an easy hour-and-20 minute drive north, from our home in New Jersey to the Hudson Valley.
