The Music Den on Sunday

Music Den 30th Anniversary

On Sunday, July 13th, I’ll play with double-breasted at the Music Den’s 30th Anniversary celebration.

The Music Den has had quite an influence on my musical upbringing. One of the owners was actually my first elementary music teacher. I remember when he left the teaching position to devote himself to the Music Den store full time. Later, as I pieced together my first drum set, I bought many pieces from the Music Den. I bought my first electric guitar there. Most importantly, I took my first lessons on drum set there, studying with John Hvasta. He taught me so many skills that I still apply to my playing today.

It’s hard to believe that the store has been open for 30 years, but I’m happy to help them celebrate and perform a set with double-breasted.

Of course, the celebration is open to the public… I hope to see you there!

Hoboken with Christina Alessi

Tornado Potato

I hope to see you on Thursday night in Hoboken, NJ when I play with Christina Alessi and Damien Musto at Northern Soul.

Unfortunately, we won’t be eating tornado potatoes at an outdoor festival, but we will be playing music indoors at a bar! I’m looking forward to a fun night at Northern Soul in Hoboken on Thursday. I’ll be playing behind Christina Alessi along with Damien Musto. So it’s 60% Hey Tiger. But 100% awesome.

Plus, our super-talented friends Jonathan Andrew and Jason Kundrath each have sets of their own. So the entire night is going to be fantastic.

Prepping for the Hey Tiger Reunion Show

damien and wayne try to remember the songs

Rehearsals have begun for the Hey Tiger Reunion show at Maxwells. We’re getting excited to play one last time before this iconic NJ music venue closes its doors. Also, we’ve just posted our three records – one full-length and two EPs – up on YouTube as playlists so that you can stream them. I’ve embedded them below. Enjoy!

Hey Tiger Reunites for One Last Show at Maxwells

Hey Tiger Reunion Show 6-26-13

We couldn’t let Maxwells close without reuniting for one more show. My former band, Hey Tiger, has decided to reunite to play Maxwells one last time before this iconic NJ venue closes its doors. I have so many great memories tied to this venue – the band’s very first show, every CD release party, and countless other performances. We can’t wait to pay tribute and play there one last time!

Weds 6/26. Maxwells. Hoboken, NJ. 7:30pm. I hope you can be there.
