ARTISTS

  • Jack Sisk is a powerhouse vocalist and producer from the New Jersey shore area, who brings a versatile range of influences to create a one-of-a-kind electronic trap pop sound. You can hear his love for artists such as The Weeknd and Ariana Grande, as well as his love for R&B and alternative music intertwined in his sound. Jack studies at the prestigious Lakehouse Academy in Asbury Park, New Jersey, where he recorded “shoulda woulda coulda” and his newest single “just so you know” in collaboration with his producer Tyler Sarfert. He has also performed in Atlantic Highlands and Asbury Park in New Jersey. He is currently attending Nazareth University to major in Musical Theatre, his second love besides songwriting, and is also planning to minor in Contemporary Commercial Music.

  • Kelly Reynolds is an indie-folk singer-songwriter from Spring Lake, New Jersey. Kelly discovered her passion for singing and performing as a child, having performed in various bands throughout the Asbury Park music scene. During the pandemic lockdown, she began to take her craft more seriously and found a means of expression through songwriting.

    Her songwriting explores topics of teen angst and first love, carefully strung together with her thoughtful lyricism and intimate performance. She is heavily inspired by artists the likes of boygenius and Lizzy McAlpine.

  • October Man, previously known as Spanish Pigeon Cheese, Gang$ta $auce, and Brent and the Brentlings have been pulverizing the indie rock scene of Asbury Park, New Jersey since they were a mere October Boy. The band features Ethan Bodner (guitar), JD Leidersdorff (guitar/vocals), Ian Neill (bass), Anthony Abboud (keys/drums), and Joey Murphy (keys/drums). Most of the band has been playing together for nearly a decade, with Neill being a recent addition. From the first meeting in preschool to Senior year in high school, the lifelong connection between the members is present in their sound. October Man released their debut single, Matchstick in July of 2024, followed by their second single “Vessel” and their final single “Dandelion” ahead of their debut EP release in October.

  • Miss Morning is a punky pub-rock musician from Asbury Park, NJ. She got her start in the band Cassette Daydreams at Lakehouse Music Academy, performing at events like Jersey Pride 2023 and 2024. Inspired by Riot Grrrl after her producer Kate Ortiz introduced her to Rebel Girl by Bikini Kill, Miss Morning embraced raw energy, teaching herself to scream and channeling that passion into her solo project. There's a whole superhero backstory thing but it's too long to put here so you can find it on her website. Now she plays with the best all girl band an ex-puppet could dream of with Sona on drums, Fatima on guitar, and Grace on bass. Her highly anticipated debut EP, Don’t Miss The Morning will be fully released on March 14th, 2025. Stream it or die.

  • Lily LiCausi is a 14-year-old alt-pop and indie-rock singer-songwriter from New Jersey. Her debut single, “Broken Record” (June 2025), delivers a raw and honest look at living with social anxiety and panic attacks, blending emotional storytelling with bold, expressive vocals.

    A student at Lakehouse Music Academy in Asbury Park, Lily studies voice, piano, guitar, and songwriting while performing regularly at Lakehouse’s Big Gigs and sponsored shows. She also sings with the vocal group Given and lends her voice to the Trinity Church Choir.

    Grounded in authenticity and driven by connection, Lily’s music captures what it feels like to grow up in a world that’s both overwhelming and inspiring—turning vulnerability into strength through song.

  • Sasha Perskie is a 17-year-old musician who, since discovering songwriting, hasn’t found anything that excites her more. Currently a piano major at Red Bank Regional’s Performing Arts Academy, she often draws from her classical background when writing melodies — though she admits that nothing sparks ideas quite like sitting outside with a guitar.

    Nostalgic and introspective, Sasha’s music is best categorized as indie-pop with a focus on thoughtful lyricism; at the same time, as a teenager, Sasha is constantly evolving as a songwriter, and loves experimenting with unexpected chords and meters. And despite the most common themes in her music, Sasha would like everyone to know that she is not, in fact, depressed.

  • Dakota Diehl is a singer-songwriter and actress from Rumson, NJ. She found her passion for performing at the age of five, having performed at the historic Count Basie Center for the Arts in Red Bank, NJ. Dakota currently attends Lakehouse Music Academy in Asbury Park, NJ, where she met her acoustic partner, JD Leidersdorff. The duo regularly performs at local bars, restaurants, and private parties throughout the Jersey Shore. She also performs with a full band at many local events and charity fundraisers, such as ASPCA, Lunchbreak, Monmouth Park Charity Fund, Rumson Parade, and RFH Touchdown Club.
