Shakey Ground, Tri-State

Shakey Ground, founded Nov 2010 by Maplewood music veterans David "Lox" Goldman-drums and -guitars, play a strong mix of Classic Rock (Jeff Beck, Hendrix, Clapton, ) and R+B/Funk-Groove (Stevie Wonder, Delbert McCLinton, King Curtis) + more...featuring the incomparable Vern Miller on bass, Mattias Raabe-keys, Brett Ollerenshaw-Saxes, and Steve Gorelick-Lead Vocals.  Next up:  Tri-State, spawned in that den of inequity, MaplewoodOnline, Tri-State brings together four elder statesmen of rock with 84 years of musical experience--and enough children to field the starting squad for the Newark Bears--between them. Drawing on sources as diverse as indie rock, alt-country, and power-pop, Tri-State's hooks, harmonies, and distinctive greying temples are sure to please even the most discriminating former Brooklynite.
