GOAT-ROCKIN' BLUES AT CLEARWATER FEST, AQUARIAN MAGAZINE PLUS, KWEEVAK'S CONCERT REVIEW |
|
The Goats bring Their Black Crowes meets Led Zeppelin sound to the Main St. Stage at 2:00PM, followed by '60's rock legend Gary U.S. Bonds.
Which means it's that time again, to honor the environment that's given us so much life and joy, just by rocking out and having some fun! This Saturday, Aug. 20, join The Holy Goats (and a cast of thousands) as they take the stage at the annual Clearwater Festival in Asbury Park.
The Holy Goats won the 2004 Asbury Music Awards for the best rock and blues CD and are currently working on their second release, due out early next year and they will also be performing at WDHA's (105.5 FM) "Rock n Ride" Fest at the Skylands Ball Park in Augusta , NJ on Sept. 18, 2005.
Aquarian Magazine, by Chris Barry
KWEEVAK'S LIVE CONCERT REVIEW:
After checking out the various displays and talking with interesting people, we settled in our chairs on the lawn to catch The Holy Goats at the main stage. Right from the first note The Goats were smoking with dueling guitars, distinct heavy rhythms and discernable percussion. The Holy Goats have one powerful male vocalist and a female singer. They have a strong stage presence and are first-rate musicians. The Holy Goats played an energized set of songs from their debut album and forthcoming new CD that is due out in 2008.

WDHA Battle of the Bands- Finals-at Double D's
4/1/04 The Aquarian - By Mike "Zute" Pizzuta
Over 400 bands submitted to WDHA for this contest. You can feel the vibe all nite as the final 4 of local rock were givin' it what they got. Broadcasting live and also judging was WDHA 105.5 FM DJ Matt Murray. Other judges included Ted Poley (singer from the now reunited Danger Danger), Maz (Guitarist from 40 FT Ringo), Metal Mike Chalsciak, (Guitarist from Halford), and DHA's overnight DJ, Jay Amabile. The judges recored scores in four catagories, Originality, Live Performance, Crowd Response and Judge's Opinion.
The Holy Goats took the stage first. They are a very retro Southern Blues Rock band. Their music consists of many attributes: heartfelt vocals with a lot of harmonies, classic fender guitar sounds, lotsa penatonic riffs, occasional waking bass lines, many shuffle beats, etc. They are reminisant of The Black Crowes, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Allman Bros, Skynrd, etc. Their tunes that caught me most were, "On Your Knees" and "Keep It Rollin".
