That\u2019s precisely where this long-time band of brothers & creative soulmates found themselves, when their well-traveled musical roads converged. It was at this poignant juncture that COLOSSAL STREET JAM was born. One may define their electrifying synergy as the cosmic melding & explosive concoction of abstract minds, unique talent, inherent soul, and tireless passion for their beloved craft. \u200b Having a deep & mutual admiration for one another, as well as having tremendous respect for their many, and diverse collective influences, who helped shape their gritty, melodic, psychedelically tinged hard rock stylings, each member truly brings their own individuality, and nuance to the mix. An eclectic potpourri for the senses, CSJ ultimately, and seamlessly fuse their independent ideas to deliver a singular vision & signature sound that can easily be coined as \u201cNew Classic Rock\u201d for the ages. This hard-driving, 70\u2019s inspired, 5-piece ensemble is comprised of Gene Potts (vocals)\u2026 Sal Marra (guitar/vocals)\u2026 Tony Flora (bass)\u2026 Dave Halpern (drums)\u2026 and Eric Safka (keys). \u200b With their roots firmly planted and their musical heritage tightly in place, CSJ has long been an integral part the legendary Asbury Park, NJ music scene. Always proud to honor these roots, and the place that gave them their start, the band forever carries with them that feeling of tradition, and heart that has endeared them to growing audiences both nationally and internationally. In 2016, the band\u2019s release, \u201cLiving Free\u201d, was met with critical acclaim and worldwide press. The albums single, \u201cSongbird\u201d received extensive radio airplay both locally, and globally. In 2018, that same record won an award for Australian Indie Album of The Year For Internet Radio. It subsequently remained on the Indie charts, Down Under, for 6 months. Later that year, in November of 2018, CSJ released their follow up album, \u201cJust Take Hold\u201d\u2026
