————————————————————————-

Morningside Lane was established in Palisades Park, New Jersey in 2009 and has since enjoyed domestic and international recognition with their innovative spin on the fresh, energetic “Jersey Sound”.

In 2020, the band released their first full-length album, “These Are Our Years”. Since then, the band has been transforming their sound, leaning towards a modern 80s pop/synth sound, culminating in the 2022 release of their second album, “Flowers To Flames”. Morningside Lane continues to build a strong fanbase, headlining many popular New Jersey venues.

The music of Lisa Bouchelleunapologetically encompasses a wide variety of genres, including Americana, pop, singer-songwriter, classic rock, gospel, and more. The songs are all based around her unique acoustic guitar grooves, and her lyrics are often about empowerment and believing in oneself, and one’s dreams; about not being afraid to take chances in life; to overcome your fears, to go for it, and “Jump In!”

“An outstanding album from one of music’s best voices… inspiring songs and hooks galore,” says The Aquarian Weekly about Lisa Bouchelle’slatest album, now out through Sony’s The Orchard.

DAVE HAUSE is a Philadelphia native and staple in the heartland rock, folk rock and punk rock scenes. On a base level, the term ‘blood harmony,’ the name of his most recent album, is simple—it describes the specific sound two siblings make when they sing together. Given that Dave Hause has been writing and recording songs with his younger brother Tim for a while now, it made sense to use that phrase as the title for his fifth solo record. Hause’s latest music resonates deeply with fans and feels more significant than ever.

About Bobby Mahoney:
Bobby Mahoney and his band are a pillar in the New Jersey music scene. Having shared stages (like the Prudential Center) with the likes of Bon Jovi, or sharing space with Against Me!, Frank Turner, and The Gaslight Anthem, Bobby Mahoney and The Seventh Son are on their way to accomplishing greatness. With a punk rock, electrifying sound, they command the stage as if they’ve been doing this for a lifetime. The foursome includes Bobby Mahoney (Guitar, Vocals), Andrew Saul (Guitar, Vocals), Jon Chang-Soon (Bass, Vocals), and James McIntosh (Drums). A band to watch, a band to hear – one that digs into the deepest parts of you and pulls out that die hard rock n’ roll soul. Riding high off their latest EP release, “We Go On” the band continues to rocket forward to become a staple Jersey band, tried & true.
