S2-E180 WaterStreet

7/10/24 Mike and cohost, 'Wheel of Fortune' announcer Jim Thornton featured New Jersey Indie band WATERSTREET on ConversationsRadio. Dave Paulson (Guitar and Vocals) Brendon Gardner (Bass) and Julia Aiello (Vocals) joined us for a wonderful chat about the band's early beginnings, their new music - Decaf Daydream and playing live shows in New Jersey and New York. Inspired by the northwest hills of NJ in the shadow of the Appalachian Ridge, Water Street creates a new version of Indie, mixing soulful acoustic melodies with rugged rock and roll bursts, enticing sax riffs, and a driving rhythm section with some hints of funk which combine to create a uniquely new, Pop/Indie-Folk/Roots sound.  The band first adopted the name Water Street from the location where the band would meet to practice, write and hone their craft. They took the name as a nod to their roots, reflecting the close sense of community bonding them to their town, each other, and their work. With 3 albums and a series of single releases, Water Street was signed by Philadelphia Indie label Free Dive Collective in the spring of 2024 and released their first song 'Decaf Daydream' with the label.
