Have you heard of "The Committed" band from Buffalo NY?


If not- you should plan to get out and see them at one of their many future WNY gigs!

The Committed is fronted by the energetic Joshua Marks, lead singer and guitarist - and accompanied by, Ryker Spurlock on drums and David Reimer on bass!

This band is an energetic POWER TRIO that plays classic rock tunes and a huge variety of popular crowd faves from the 50's to 2000's!

In 2025 they were nominated for BEST CLASSIC ROCK band in WNY!!

Pretty impressive for 3 teens in WNY!



"The Committed" is out there performing a lot these days!

They guarantee a rockin' good time with high energy performances and a crowd engaging and pleasing setlist!

With Joshua Marks as lead singer and guitarist, Ryker Spurlock on the drums and back-up vocals, and David Reimer on bass and also back-up vocals, these teens form an impressive POWER TRIO with talent and stage presence that exceeds well beyond their age!

Over the past two and a half years, the band has played almost 100 killer live shows at a variety of bars, breweries, festivals and private parties!

They were also nominees for the Night Life's best classic rock band this year and they cannot wait to show you what they've got!

Get yourself to a show near you - you will be amazed at the talent that these
 " YOUNG DUDES" bring to the stage! 

Have a listen here for yourself - This is the band performing one of our all-time faves, "Somebody to Love" by Jefferson Airplane. 

It is refreshing to see such a young group of musicians take an interest in a band such as Jefferson Airplane!

Blissen - Buffalo, NY










Blissen

On June 5th, Upstate, NY-based alternative grunge outfit Blissen will be releasing their new single Mad Tree. The single is the first off of the forthcoming debut record, which is due out later this summer. A band of high school kids, Blissen showcases songwriting ability that is long beyond their years. “Mad Tree talks about the struggles of suicide and mental health,” says the band. “The song follows a protagonist slowly losing themselves. The story is a reflection of the hidden selves that live with many of us every day”.




 

Ansley Court - Buffalo, NY




















Thank You Mike! Now I have Bakers Dozen to listen to...

Ansley Court was a cool, rockin' alternative band from Buffalo that was gigging and recording in the 90's. I had the pleasure of seeing them play live a couple of times and also had the pleasure of working w/Joe (JOFO 70) while he recorded his solo album in the old Sidway building. Last I heard Joe moved to NYC. Ansley Court was an extremely talented bunch of original songwriters, their sound could be called alternative rock but it is a unique, eclectic blend of many genres. The overall sound of "jade heart bleeder" is very cool. Lots of interesting sounds going on to entertain the ears. I think A.S. was way ahead of the curve and not your average, ordinary band by any means.


After all this time I still enjoy listening to "jade heart bleeder".
