The best kept secret in music

"BarFly"

by Alan Tecchio

Over in Montclair, NJ on Valley Road there is a place called the Coffee Club Cafe. This quaint little java lounge is a nice indy alternative to the modern carbon copy caffeine shops. One thing that sets them apart is the live music they occasionally provide for their guests. The night I stopped by an acoustic set was going on with guitarists/singers Scott DeCarlo and Jason Gisser. In an interesting twist, the artists alternated playing their songs one at a time while seated next to each other onstage. First listens to new, original music in a live environment can be difficult but because they switched after each song, there was a refreshing feel to the set. As performers, I found the two to be equally emotive but coming from two very different schools. Jason's style reminded me of the nineties band Maggie's Dream who had soul oozing out of every one of their songs. He had that "tight in the throat" squeezed off kind of passionate voice if you know what I mean. Scott had a much more open throated, in your face vocal. The songs of DeCarlo that I caught featured some of his darker sounds which I loved. He told me he's got some more "Pop sounding" songs as well, but not being a fan of overly "happy" music, (Jeez what does that say about me?!) I was glad I heard some of his more somber, introspective tunes. At one point he held a sorrow filled note so damn long that I thought he was going to pass out. The Soy Mocha I ordered took a long while to arrive because the place was jam packed with people ordering up food & drink and enjoying the show. Check this spot out the next time you are in the area.
