Here’s a little version of one of my favorite songs.
Will anything ever sound as good as Appetite on cassette blaring through a sony walkman?
Monclair… fun little town. Great used book store w/ a used vinyl in the basement. Sweet prices, like $2, $3 bucks. Shops in the village (love you guys but…) will hit you for $15 bucks for these gems. And a GnR jean jacket next store!! (that one I didn’t buy… on the xmas list…)
Was working on it a bit yesterday. Full recording of a song called True Love. I’ve been playing it at shows, there is a live recording posted, but this version’s a bit different. I love how it’s coming out, a little less bluesy and more country. Somewhere in the middle. Upright bass, some slide guitar, a djembe. Kinda swampy. Two part country harmony. Prob out next week.
She used to bum, now she rolls her own…

Na na na na na…. dusting off some oldies for this Thursday acoustic show at The Saint.
When I was 21 I turned out this little biscuit w/ my buds and it’s really fun to sing along to ….. Roll tape!!
I feel like much of the music that was made in the basement of New Brunswick’s Court Tavern was the music of rejected souls. Kind of like smirking after you’ve been punched in the mouth and there’s blood all in your smile.
Alas, the Court is no more. But New B music rages on. Saw Screaming Females a week or so ago in Brooklyn. They sounded like New Brunswick to me & Jimi Hendrix is the closest comparison I can think of to Marissa Paternoster.
Farewell CT, perhaps we’ll meet again somewhere down the line.
