Probably one of the best people to interview in the music industry are the new bands who just hatched from the egg. Full of vigor and excitement; just learning what it means to be a true collection of musicians that we call a band. While brand new bands are inexperienced and out of practice, they have a certain charm that I personally find irresistible. Please allow me to be one of the first people to introudce you to the amazing new band: Goonz dè Maroon!
From the Kearny area, they are a four piece band consisting of Stefan beating on the drums, Rodrigo slapping the bass while doing some vocals, Kevin shredding the lead guitar and yelling, and Arthur playing rhythm guitar and serenading on vocals. So far these guys have one recorded song and two shows under their belts, but expect plenty of more shows and songs, which are in the process of being recorded as I type.
Their sound is an interesting blend of elements from different genres; mostly consisting of good old fashioned rock with elements of reggae, ska, and alternative.
To be honest, there is not much to say about this up-and-coming band, but expect plenty more to come. At this stage in time, it is unclear what their future holds. However, if I have any say in it, these guys will be leaving a huge footprint on the New Jersey scene. Check out their Facebook to stream their recorded song "Free" and make sure to check back every now and then for the exciting updates of what these Goonz are doing!
