The El Caminos
While the members of the band would be hard-pressed to describe their sound, the band definitely has its roots firmly planted in the Alt Country-Rock / Americana realm. Added to this are elements from string bands, rock and roll, and even punk music. The band clearly has fun while playing, and their songs indicate a kind of snarkiness that about which one reviewer says “you can sense a chuckle behind the singing.”

The Buddhahood
a dynamically colorful, electric show that attracts an audience as eclectic as the band itself. Each BuddhaHood performance bubbles along with unstoppable rhythm, and everyone gets caught in the flow. Once people start dancing, the groove never lets them stop. This band creates a fun, friendly, and open atmosphere, and you can never expect the same thing at any two shows. What you can expect is a performance full of surprises, many dancing bodies, perspiration, an elevated heart rate, and creative tunes that are as uplifting spiritually and emotionally as they are physically.

Mudbone
...a rootsy original rock show, playing a few covers of inspired influences, and a bunch of originals. With guitars that meld a touch of Willie Nelson, Dickie Betts and Muddy Waters, and vocal harmonies that can sometimes sound like butter-smooth old-time music, the band has started to form a locally distinctive style and sound that shows potential...

Mike Brindisi & The New York Rock
A lead vocalist and front man through and through, Mike possesses a modern male vocal backed by a ton of power, excellent pitch, and a safe amount of growl to set him far apart from any Indie/Emo male vocals saturating the music industry today. When Mike takes the stage, all eyes are on him, and a small bit of comedy from doing standup and as an extra on Saturday Night Live keeps everyone in the crowd smiling, and banging their heads at the same time.
Mike continues to play, and shake the walls of rooms all over the Northeast. His shows are like arena Concerts in rock clubs, and now with a full throttle rock band firing on all cylinders, you can expect to see him everywhere and anywhere people will listen. Mike is a loaded gun. The question is who will pull the trigger?
