Hi Everyone,

What a fun time at Espresso Joe's this past Saturday as we hosted another BlowUpRadio.com Guitar Pull. Huge thanks to Bil Brixton, Joe Canzano, Keith Monacchio, and acoustic opener The Clydes!

Next month we'll be back at Espresso Joe's on Saturday October 13th, but it's not for a BlowUpRadio.com Guitar Pull, because if it's October it must mean it's time for...

No, not pumpkin spice latte (bleck!)

It's the season of caring & giving...

Banding Together, our annual benefits for the Spondylitis Association Of America are back!

Check out Lazlo's Corner below for all the info!

BlowUpRadio.com Announces its Banding Together Annual Benefit for the Spondylitis Association Of America

Schedule includes Multiple Concerts, Live Webathon,and Compilation Album

9.10.18 - Internet radio station and music website BlowUpRadio.com, where NJ rock lives, has announced its schedule of events for its 2018 Banding Together, its annual benefit for The Spondylitis Association of America. This year’s event is bigger and better than ever once again bringing together some of the best local indie musicians from around New Jersey performing in October and November at multiple benefit concerts at such popular venues as The Brighton Bar (Long Branch) and Clash Bar (Clifton), the return of its 3-day webathon broadcast live on BlowUpRadio.com and its annual music compilation. See full schedule of events below.

“We are thrilled to bring back the popular webathon component to our Banding Together benefit this year thanks to the expansion of our BlowUpRadio.com studio,” says Lazlo, the founder of BlowUpRadio.com and organizer of Banding Together. “It’s back bigger and better than ever with nearly 40 artists performing live on BlowUpRadio.com between Friday, October 19 and Sunday, October 21.”

All money raised from the concerts, webathon donations and compilation downloads, will go directly to the Spondylitis Association Of America to fund research and provide the programs and services the spondylitis community has come to rely on. Spondylitis is a genetic rheumatoid arthritic condition that causes inflammation and fusion in the vertebrae of the spine. BlowUpRadio.com has been hosting annual Banding Together benefits for more than a decade now and has raised thousands of dollars for the cause and has helped increased awareness of this genetic disease which the Centers For Disease Control says affects more than 2.7 million adults in the US.

“I am so grateful to have the opportunity to host the annual Banding Together benefit as a way to raise funds and awareness for a cause that is very personal to me as my wife, Naomi, suffers from ankylosing spondylitis (AS). I have seen the debilitating effects of this disease and the chronic pain and discomfort it causes,” says Lazlo. “Thanks to the artists who donate their time and talents, and to the music fans who support the shows, live broadcast and download the comp year after year. Their love for music goes very far in helping us raise money and draw attention to a disease that affects more than two million people.”

Artists scheduled to perform at Banding Together Events include: Amanda Duncan, Amanda Rose Riley, Anthony Walker, Brian Rothenbeck, Dave Vargo, DDA, Deena & Jon (The Cucumbers), Deirdre Forrest, Diego Allessandro, Don Lee, Drive Kid, Ernston, Evil Annie & The Ants, Frank Patrouch, Hal Guitarist, Happy Joe Canzano, J Orellana (erase:rewind), Jeff Devito (Particle Zoo), Jenny & The Felines, Jenny Cat, Jerry Lardieri (Brixton Riot), Jersey Drive, Jim Testa, Joe Billy, Joe Schroeck, John Van Ness & Tauree, Jon Caspi & The First Gun ft Dez Cadena, Jonathan Andrew, Joshua Bicknell, Joshua Van Ness, Keith Beck's Zigman Bird, Keith Monacchio, Kim Boyko, Laree Cisco, Lion-Hearted, Marc Gambino (Lion-Hearted), Match Party, Mazeffect, Michael Scotto, Mick Chorba (Successful Failures), Mighty Alrighty, Mike Ferraro, Old Currents, Puppyboy, Rhonette Smith, Rick Dill, Ruby Bones, Sean Faust, Shotgun Bill, Sonofdov, The Williamsboy, Thomas Johnston, Tony Tedesco, Ziggy Grover, and more TBA.
