NEW JERSEY - October 3, 2017 - In partnership with Rebuildit Foundation, Deal
Stereo and Motor Media, the Headliner in Belmar, NJ will be the site for a benefit
concert with some of the best up and coming artists on the New Jersey circuit. Jersey
Calling is a benefit to raise money to benefit those affected by Hurricane Harvey. The
event on October 21 from 3 P.M.-9 P.M. est , will feature local heavyweights such as
Experiment 3R, Vextion, The Riffs, I Am Tommy and the band that has social media
buzzing, Dark Sky Choir. DCS’s manager Rick Santaniello states, “Doing a show like
this is important to me personally, as well as DSC, having lived through the devasta-
tion of Hurricane Sandy. After Sandy, I lost vehicles and hundreds of thousands of
dollars in loss and damages. Living at the Jersey Shore, I not only witnessed the
destruction, but also was impacted by it. You feel as if you’ve been violated and it is
a long-lasting feeling. Being a part of this is important to us. Whatever we can do
and whatever help we can be is an honor. The event also has other really exciting
bands playing with us that we really respect and are privileged to share the day with.
We have I am Tommy, Experiment 34, which is a very exciting young band, and we
have Vextion, a band I personally am excited to see. I dig their stuff and can’t wait
to hear it. Also, of course, our brothers in The Riffs. These guys bring it every show.
Their energy is awesome, they are fun and they kill it every time they take the stage.
It’s a great feeling to be doing something for such a good cause and to be a part of
an event that helps folks that are going through something that is all too familiar to
each one of us.”
Dark Sky Choir’s founder and guitartist, Fred Gorhau adds, “Playing a concert like
this means a lot to me. There are some people who have lost everything they have
ever owned. If I can play a small part in helping them put their lives back together,
it’s well worth it.
Neue Regel Radio and Total Order Magazine support organizations like
WorldArts who do not charge artists for registering for their site.
Sandy was terrible for many people I know. I was very lucky that I only had a broken
window and lost power for a week.” There will be a Chinese gift auction and more.
