DRAMARAMA Rooted in distorted grit, punk energy, and American songbook eloquence, Dramarama has always been both classic and cutting-edge. With the group’s seventh full-length and first album in 15 years, Color TV, the iconic New Jersey alternative rock quintet—John Easdale [singer, songwriter], Mark Englert [lead, rhythm guitar] Peter Wood [lead, rhythm guitar], Mike Davis [bass], and Tony Snow [drums]—not only preserve but strengthen the spirit that established them as a music-history-making force in 1982. Color TV amplifies their significance once again for a new era.

DRAMARAMA Legendary debut album, Cinéma Vérité blends everything from British Invasion panache and glam influences to punk energy and back again.  Guitarists Mr. E Boy (Mark Englert) and Peter Wood distill the kick of performers like Keith Richards, Mick Ronson, and Mott the Hoople-era Mick Ralphs into a hot-wired combination, while rhythm section Chris Carter (bass) and Anant Jesse Farbman (drums) hit the beat with heart and talent. The results are jaw dropping.

CODY BROOKS is back porch rock & roll. Gutbucket blues. Gypsy jazz.  Cody Brooks plays it all, whipping up a raw, rootsy racket with help from a 1929 B&J Victoria parlor guitar and a voice that’s as wild and roughhewn as the Tennessee backwoods. Jack White meets Tom Waits!

Holy Cow that first song by Cody Brooks is outstanding. Listening to some of the other songs too. So good. He’s inventive, different, kind of edgy.-  Rock and Blues Muse

Over a patchwork of Americana, soul and rock, Boston singer/songwriter Billy Dodge Moody explores themes of family dynamics, mental illness, relationships, and grief with unfiltered candor.

“Wildlife,” the debut single from the upcoming album, Condition, is a roots-rock driven exploration into many of the record’s themes, namely mental illness, as moody poignantly illustrates the importance of humanity accepting the natural, emotional ups and downs that come with being alive
