about the bands:
Leaf Pile crafts great melodies over acoustic guitars, violins, bass, and beats. Delivering a great attachment with their audience. Relatively new to Jersey City, this is their second local show, mind you not their second show :)
The Radio Galaxy was formed during the Summer 2004 in the vicinity of West Paterson, New Jersey. The band did some "genre hopping" in its early phases, but has since been forging an alternative rock sound of their own. Lead singer Virginia Kamenitzer says that "if Sarah McLachlan and Ani DiFranco had a 5 ft tall baby, covered her with some serious rocking power and lovingly placed her in a talented, groove-based rock n' roll band, you would have The Radio Galaxy." Luckily, the band exists on its own accord, with Virginia backed by Dave DeRiso (drums), Tim Dempsey (guitar, vocals), Ryan Headley (guitar, mandolin), and Randy Artiglere (bass).
Hello, Boat has played clubs all over New York and New Jersey with its New line up, New tunes, and New name.
Hello, Boat is a happy reincarnation of the band deathmask. Death Rockers Katy Cunningham, Boris Veysman and Steve Dans have been shredding and brawling together since 2001. Unable to discuss new band names without black eyes and bloody knuckles, the three dissidents called in Tim Dempsey in 2008 to be a voice of reason and raging guitar player. Lots of rock and no names later, the group called on Ryan Headley to intervene via lap steel. While Ryan distracted the others with his interesting tones and twang, Katy named the band Hello, Boat.
They had a ball rocking new fans on their Road To Wonderful Tour - from Georgia's Willow Oak Festival all the way to The Elbo Room in Chicago. Hello, Boat is planning another tour in Fall of 2010.
