The Jersey Syndicate was formed in 2006 by former "Without Love" drummer
Mike Sasso. The original lineup only lasted one show, after which Mike replaced the
full lineup with what he describes as "the best bunch of guys that I've ever had the
pleasure to work with!"
Since then, the band has grabbed the music scene by the horns, and hasn't let go.
Blending a mix of 80's style rock, along with a modern day sound, the band has rose
to the top of the original music scene. They have already amassed a resume to
make other bands jealous.
Their first gig was at the House of Blues in Atlantic City, opening for Twisted
Sister, playing to over 2500 screaming fans. More national gigs soon followed.
Winger & Warrant were next on the bill, along with Quiet Riot (twice) , Slaughter,
Skid Row & Pretty Boy Floyd.
The Jersey Syndicate has also had the privilege to play at the Rocklahoma Music
Festival in Pryor Creek, Oklahoma. The festival featured performances by some of
the top 80's hair bands. (Poison, Ratt, Firehouse, Winger, Warrant, White Lion, &
Dokken, were just a few of the bands to perform. )
The festival proved to be very beneficial to the band. Here's some key points that
the band is very proud of......
*Aside from Skid Row, The Jersey Syndicate was the only band from NJ invited to
play this event.
*Aside from Skid Row and Twisted Sister, The Jersey Syndicate was the only
band on the East Coast invited to play this event.
*The Jersey Syndicate was the only band, both local and national, to play 2 days in a
row.
*The Jersey Syndicate was the only band, both local and national, to be female
fronted.
*The Jersey Syndicate was the only unsigned act invited to play this event. (all the
other local/unsigned bands had to win contests to get their spots to play!)
The Jersey Syndicate has had featured stories written on them in such
newspapers as The Aquarian Arts Weekly, The Examiner, The Hub,
The Independent, The News Tran__script, The Sentinel, and The Tri-Town News.
The band has developed a large following in such a short period of time. When not
opening for nationals, the band can be found playing acoustic sets throughout NJ.
What's next on the horizon is anybody's guess. But if the path the guys are going on
continues, it's sure to be an amazing journey. And we'd like to take you along with
us, if just for 45 minuets at a time......
