"Stelladeora: A Dosage From Delusional"

By Vincent Inciong (music educator in Central Jersey)

Stelladeora makes their EP debut releasing the offering, “A Dosage From Delusional”. With heart pumping drums, solid rhythmic guitar work, melodic bass lines, and blistering vocals, the rock in this EP is far from a delusion but rather a reality check that the indie music scene in New Jersey is about to make a big impact.

Formed in South Plainfield, New Jersey by Justina Carubia (vocals) and Avinash Patel (guitar) in 2009, Stelladeora harnesses a heavy indie pop rock feel into each track. There is maturity in their music that can only be learned through passion, experience, and the hustle in the indie music scene. Every track has an aggressive, yet balanced, execution of melody, rhythm, harmonies, and skillful production – this album covers it all! Every emotion is captured and released from the heavy hitting, “Clockwork” to the classy, melodic, and texturally driven, “Goodbye August”.

Nothing was held back in this EP. Having gone through two different producers, and ultimately finishing the EP on their own, “A Dosage From Delusional” is a labor of hard knocks silver lined with love and hope. With a concept element in tact, tied together with an included original comic strip, the creativity and talent runs deep in this quartet.

The current line up of Justina Carubia (vocals), Avinash Patel (guitar), Neil Brown (bass), and Mike Lyon (drums) will be hitting the stage this August to promote “A Dosage From Delusional”.

“A Dosage From Delusional” is available from www.stelladeora.bandcamp.com for FREE download.

"NBC 10!"

"Justina was very professional, and shows promise.
She has a certain edge to her songs that seemed to resonate with the audience"
-Gabriel Antonini , sound tech NBC 10! Show - -Gabriel Antonini , sound tech NBC 10! Show


"Upstage Magazine review"

It didn’t take Justina long to realize that she was meant to be a musician. She was finally coaxed on stage by her father one night at “Van Gogh’s Ear” in Union and played her first three songs live. Immediately afterwards, she couldn’t wait to be back on stage.


Justina recently graduated from the duCret School of Art. For an artist that only picked up the guitar at 18, she’s come a long way in a short period of time.

“Justina is a phenomenal talent, since her debut performance here, we knew we had witnessed something special at Espresso Joe’s,” said Sonny & Ed, the owners of Espresso Joe’s. “She has wonderful lyrics that she transforms into great harmonious songs. ‘All Down Hill from Here’ is a great song about taking chances and ‘Break of Day’ is an inspiring song which is also the track title of her first CD release. Justina has the making of a star; we consider her as one of these sensational artists who is ‘under the radar.’”

Espresso Joe’s has been one of the biggest supporters of Justina from day one. She has also regularly played places like Crossroads in Garwood, Indigo Coffeehouse and the Bound Brook Hotel. She’s hoping that her new CD (which was released in late May) helps her attract the attention of some record industry professionals and get her more shows across the area.

“I’m hoping to get the attention of some labels whether independent or major labels,” said Justina. “But you hear from other people about their experiences and you’re not so sure if a label is the right route to go. I just want to get out and play as much as I can and see what goes.”

Justina says that she learned how to play guitar as a freshmen in college. On her 18th birthday, she received a guitar and her father taught her some chords. She just took it from there.

“It was around that time that the female musicians started taking over,” she recalled. “And it just sort of caught my interest. I started listening to Jewel and reading her poetry. Then I started writing my own poetry. That kind of led me to wanting to learn how to play so I could put my thoughts and music together. I’ve always had an interest in singing so I kind of put it all together and came out with what I have now.”

She honed her live performance from playing at open mics. Soon she was invited to do longer and longer sets. Finally she started getting booked as the headliner.

Her songs are a mixture of auto-biographical tales and pure fiction. “I try not to bore people too much with my love life and my personal life,” said Justina. “But that’s always going to come through. I try to write stories in my songs to make it a little more interesting.”

"Justina's EP - Break of Day"

Yesterday Justina released her debut album Break of Day. This 5 song EP is nothing less than amazing. Justina is a 21 year old singer/songwriter with a sassy look and a melodic voice. Her music is catchy and just grabs you immediately. From the moment I put the CD into my player, I could not stop listening to it. To buy your copy today visit http://www.justinasworld.com/.

"Stereofame.com January 2010 Artist of the Month"

Stereofame.com January 2010 Artist of the Month - Justina
Part Cyndi Lauper, part Michelle Branch, New Jersey-born singer/songwriter Justina is all talent. Listening to Justina’s powerful vocals, one can hardly believe that a voice with such command and self-assuredness comes from a 26 year-old girl who stands all of 4'11".

With irresistible hooks and refreshingly personal lyrics, Justina is asserting herself as a rising star in the female singer/songwriter landscape. Her ability to bounce from gentle love ballads to Beatles-esque pop tunes with heart and honesty has earned her the honor of being chosen as Stereofame.com’s first repeat Artist of the Month winner.

"It's like being on a virtual micro-label," Justina said of Stereofame. "You can upload your music to a mass audience and there’s nothing to lose, it's an awesome thing to be a part of."

Since receiving a guitar on her 18th birthday, Justina has immersed herself in the craft of songwriting, a pursuit that she says comes with its highs and lows.

"Sometimes good ideas will just hit me and sometimes I have to force them out," she said. "It's different every time but that’s what is so great about songwriting, it can be so frustrating...but ultimately it's very rewarding to be able to put your emotions into something positive."

Despite her soulful sound, Justina is an unabashed "chick rock" devotee. In addition to counting artists like Pat Benatar and Stevie Nicks among her influences, Justina credits the aforementioned Branch with giving her the motivation to take herself seriously as an artist.

"(Branch) is the whole reason I picked up the guitar when I did," Justina said. "She had just come out when I was 18 and she was really the only young girl out there that played her own instrument and I was really inspired by that."

Most importantly, Justina clings to the belief that her integrity as an artist defines her sound.

"I hate the whole lip-synching thing," she said. "It's so fake, I just like real music and real artists who put creativity into every aspect of it."

One things is for certain, Justina is the determined to share the creativity inside of her with the rest of the world.

"I wake up in the mornings, get ready, get in the shower and I’ll have a hook in my head that just needs to get out."

As Stereofame's January 2010 Artist of the Month, Justina will get valuable exposure to an international audience in addition to a $1,000 prize. Stereofame is a one-of-a-kind community where artists are judged objectively by the listening audience. Artists gather more points as they rise in rank and refer their fans from other sites. Plus, artists can sell their music here, too, so they’re getting serious points while making money, something iTunes doesn’t offer!

Listeners are also rewarded for their input, as they can earn points for listening to a song and giving it a "thumbs up or down," and writing thoughtful reviews. They can help talented artists get the attention they deserve by signing artists to their virtual record label and then promoting their signed artists to their friends. Of course, fans get tons of points for buying music and bringing people to the site, too. All these points can be cashed in for various prizes such as iPods, musical equipment, gift cards and more.

Think you've got what in takes to be Stereofame's next Artist of the Month? Then go to Stereofame.com and upload three songs to www.Stereofame.com/contest/aom. And if you're a fan, log on to Stereofame.com today to help some of tomorrow's biggest and brightest stars get heard and earn some sweet prizes at the same time!

"Pen's Eye View Interview Feature"

When introducing any PensEyeView artist, we always looks for some sort of topic to kick things off – something that’ll really stand out in the minds of our readers. There’s so much we can talk about with today’s feature: Justina Carubia. We could tell you about her four Asbury Music Award nominations, the fact she writes all of her songs, or about her “soft, yet soulful rock vocal approach.” But that’s not how we’re kicking things off. I want to talk about song covers.

Song covers are underappreciated. A cover song can tell you so much about an artist – what they like, how they see music. I mean, seriously, it can tell you the true identity of an artist. With that said, have you checked out Carubia’s take on Flo Rida’s smash, “Low?” Of course, an acoustic version of a hip-hop hit is different, but listen to her take! She adds a whole new flare to the hit. When you hear her EP, “Last One Standing,” you’ll hear what I’m talking about – though in a different tone from a “Low” cover. The EP deals in rejection. Justina says, “I was at a really low point after my first EP (Break of Day): I got turned down by a few labels, dealt with the breakup of my live band, and with ‘friends’ I couldn’t really rely on. Rejection is something everyone has experienced, and it can really make you feel horrible and worthless. So I really wanted to make a collection of songs to inspire others who are going through the same thing, and give them hope to come out a stronger person.”

“Last One Standing” is pure Justina Carubia – she was able to control the project from start to finish (so no doubt you’ll notice the flare I’ve mentioned). Come out to a performance – she’s had tons of experience to produce the quality show she has now. She’ll be hitting up FYE stores in the near future to play for and meet her fans, and then focusing on a full album. We can’t wait. Get into the XXQ’s for a lot more.

XXQs: Justina Carubia

PensEyeView.com (PEV): Tell how you first decided to become a musician? Was it something you always wanted to do or did some event spark the idea?

JC: It was the beginning of my freshman year of college (2001), around the time that the female singer songwriters like Michelle Branch, Vanessa Carlton, and Jewel, were really dominating the market. It really caught my interest, and I had always had a love for singing and poetry so I really wanted to try something of my own. I asked my dad for a guitar for my 18th birthday, so he got me one and showed me some chords. I pretty much took it and ran with it. It just came very natural to me.

PEV: A New Jersey native, what kind of music were you listening to growing up?

JC: I grew up with my parents blasting records by The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Carly Simon, James Taylor, Paul Simon, and Eric Clapton, so it was a nice mix of Folk and Rock. My mom also played a lot of chick rock like The Bangles, The Go Gos, Blondie, and Pat Benatar…there’s just something so tough and cool about being a rock chick!

PEV: Along with being an Asbury Music Award Nominee, you also recently made your television debut with the unreleased song “Oxygen” on Philadelphia’s The 10! Show. How did that come about and what were your thoughts of the show?

JC: I started working with a booking agent and he gave me the offer. I jumped at it right away! I had never done TV before, and it is an amazing opportunity to be able to reach so many people at once…it went really well, and I networked with a lot of people. It’s important to network any way you can!

PEV: What was it like for you when you were first breaking into the music business? Before you started playing regular gigs?

JC: When I first started out I was playing a lot of open mics and coffeehouses. I haven’t stopped playing any of those things, open mics are actually still a good practice to get out and do, if I don’t have any gigs scheduled. It’s still a struggle to get my music heard, and build that following.

PEV: What can fans expect from a live Justina Carubia show?

JC: Lately I have been playing all of my shows acoustic, so they are pretty intimate settings where I get to kinda talk to the crowd and tell stories behind the songs. I also like to mix up the set list all the time. I’ll bring back some of my older songs my fans have grown to know and love, or I’ll break out a brand new song, maybe even a cover song. I think I have become a lot more daring with the carelessness of a set…. I forget words or chords to my own songs, and I shrug it off. Not that I don’t care, of course I do, but careless is so much more rock n’ roll! It seems to give the audience a little laugh, and humor in a set is always fun! I also love some audience participation!

PEV: How have your shows evolved from when you first started out?

JC: My live shows have gone through so many changes, starting out as an acoustic act, and then performing with a band, then back to the acoustic thing. I think change is important; it keeps the audience coming back. I think I’m taking more chances now, vocally. I’m playing more vocally demanding songs live, and I’m getting more comfortable doing so. I’m finding myself as a performer, not just a studio vocalist anymore.

PEV: Any embarrassing or crazy live show stories?

JC: About a week ago I had a show in NYC, and a drunken construction worker started dancing to “Oxygen” right in front of me…he had his hard hat on and everything. It’s hard to get through those kinds of things without cracking up, so I just encourage it. I told him to “drop it like it’s hot”…it gave the audience a good laugh! One of my friends even started dancing with him, so that was funny…Yea I also have habits of swallowing bugs, or having them fly into my face during those outdoor shows…

PEV: If you could collaborate with one artist out today, who would it be and why?

JC: I would love to collaborate with a lot of people, it’s so hard to choose just one! I would really love to collab with Stevie Nicks though. She has been an idol of mine for a very long time, and I know she has worked with many other favorite artists of mine like Sheryl Crow and Vanessa Carlton so her style would probably compliment mine as well. Also she just seems like a very graceful yet strong presence. It would be an honor to do a song with her!

PEV: As well, is there an up and coming artist right now that you think we should all be looking out for?

JC: I am a big fan of Terra Naomi who has grown a huge fan base from her You Tube page. Also, fellow musician and Jerseyan’s band Charlotte Sometimes has been doing really well making a name for themselves. I used to play shows with her at local cafes and now she’s playing Warped Tour, so that is pretty amazing to see things happen for someone so close to home.

PEV: Tell us, what can fans expect from your long awaited follow-up EP “Last One Standing”(Nov. 2007)?

JC: It was a musical journey for me. It touches a lot on the theme of rejection. I was at a really low point after my first EP: I got turned down by a few labels, dealt with the breakup of my live band, and with “friends” I couldn’t really rely on. Rejection is something everyone has experienced, and it can really make you feel horrible and worthless. So I really wanted to make a collection of songs to inspire others who are going through the same thing, and give them hope to come out a stronger person.

PEV: How is “Last One Standing” different from your May of 2005 five-song debut EP titled “Break of Day”?

JC: Most of the songs on Break of Day were written when I had just started out, and I even co-wrote a couple. The production was in the control of the producers, they did all the music on their time, and I came in and did vocals when they needed me. I wasn’t as involved as I would have liked to be, and there was a deadline, so I felt like those songs weren’t really developed the way they should have been. With Last One Standing, I saw the project from beginning to the very end; Writing every song and melody, The pre-production, the studio sessions with every musician that played on every track, to the album artwork, vocals of course, down to the mixing/mastering/packaging, and even designed my own website. I had full control of the 2nd EP, so I feel like that was my baby, and I am so proud of it. I also feel like with LOS, you can hear the difference in the content, and in my voice. I have definitely matured as a writer, and with this collection of songs I think I really found my voice. I was a lot more daring with hitting higher notes, and doing more vocal riffs.

Working with Wayne Dorell (Hey Tiger), who produced LOS, was a comfortable and creative experience. We really took our time with things, and made sure everything was 100% before moving on to the next track…. Are there things I’d still change about LOS? Of course, but that’s just the perfectionist in me!

PEV: When you sit down to write an album like “Last One Standing” what kind of environment do you surround yourselves in?

JC: When I write, I like to lock myself in my room and just tune the world out. I feel bad for abandoning the people around me, but sometimes it helps to get into that introverted kinda mode. I always/usually write alone. Writing songs is very private to me, just as it is writing in a diary, which is why I find it so hard to co-write. I’m only able to write with those who I feel a certain comfortable connection with…it’s hard to explain, but maybe I’m just musically strange, hahaha!

PEV: What’s one thing we’d be surprised to hear about Justina Carubia?

JC: I used to be extremely shy back in high school, and never dreamed in a million years that I would be doing something that involved performing in front of people. I never even did chorus in high school because I was scared to sing in front of people. It takes getting a little older and growing some confidence to realize that if you’re given a gift, you should use it, or at least try to.

PEV: How have your friends and family reacted to all your success?

JC: They’re all so amazingly supportive of what I have achieved so far, I’m really fortunate to have that support system. Some kids have parents who want them to be lawyers and doctors, something that has a promising income. But my parents are John Lennon fans, they’re definitely dreamers, I’m not the only one

PEV: If we were to walk into your practice studio right now, what’s one thing we’d most likely find?

JC: I know it sounds really glamorous and all, but my practice studio is actually my room, haha! I have a pretty big walk in closet with a desk, so I have my laptop set up in there, and of course a pen, notepad and guitar. It’s its own little nook in my house, and I know nobody will bother me there. Also lots of candles, incense, and glasses of green tea help to relax and clear the mind.

PEV: How is life on the road for you? Good parts? Bad parts?

JC: I traveled a couple times to support my music, but never have I done a full on tour. That is definitely a dream of mine! In any event, gas station bathrooms are definitely not the best things about traveling! The good part is seeing what each city has to offer, networking my @$$ off and trying a different restaurant each night… I love food!

PEV: In your opinion, is there a certain city (US or International) that you find to be the best city for music?

JC: A couple weeks ago I played in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in NY. It was a very quaint area; there were music clubs all over the place. NYC is great, I love going into the city! I also have a love for New Hope, PA, Sedona, AZ, and Savannah, GA. I just got back from Philly though, and South Street is just happening with the music…I hope to play there again soon!

PEV: As well, where’s one place you haven’t played, you would like to? Why?

JC: I would LOVE to visit New Orleans because I have heard so much about the streets being filled with music all hours of the night! It’s just one big party! Also I would really love to go to Nashville, TN and take a trip to Music Row.

PEV: Where do you think you’ll be ten years from now?

JC: It’s kinda scary to think of 10 years from now, when I don’t even know what’s gonna happen tomorrow…or even 5 minutes from now for that matter! I hope to still be rocking out and creating more. Most importantly, I hope I can eventually do music comfortably enough to make a nice living out of it. I hope I’m not stuck at this day job forever!!

PEV: So, what’s next for Justina Carubia?

JC: I have a consignment deal with FYE stores in the works… I have been writing all through last winter, so I have a catalogue of new songs waiting to be recorded. I would really love to do a full album, and I would really love to tour. I guess we’ll just wait and see! - Penseyeview.com


"STOLI GETS TO KNOW JUSTINA WHILE VISITING JERSEY"

My next guest is an incredibly talented musician from New Jersey. Her voice draws you in and her songwriting is real & personal. She is only 23 but her music is years beyond her age. Join me as we talk about her latest EP, the election, life, charity work and much more!

Stoli: You have been writing songs since the age of 18. How would you say that your writing has matured from 18 to 24?

Justina: I think the natural process of growing up and going through more experiences as a young adult opens your eyes to a lot of things. I think now, more so than ever, I just want to be honest in my music, and not have to censor myself. I think music should always be honest. I have also grown to be more metaphoric with the way I write my lyrics, and I try to think outside of the box… Metaphorically honest, would that be an oxymoron? Hahhahah…

Stoli: Why did you decide to title your latest EP release as ‘The Last One Standing?’

Justina: After doing pre-production on all of the final songs I decided to place on this demo, I realized that all of the songs chosen had the same underlying theme: Rejection. It’s like when you’re in grade school gym class and everyone’s picking teams. It’s down to just you, and both team captains just kinda look at each other like they don’t know what to do with you, they don’t know where you fit. That’s kinda how I felt after being rejected by the first few labels I shopped to. The title “Last One Standing” just seemed so fitting. Rejection happens to everyone, but it’s part of life. This collection of songs is dedicated to anyone who is going through that.

Stoli: What kind of mental state do you have to be in when you set out to create new music?

Justina: I think I write a lot in Retrospect. I don’t know why that is, but it seems like whenever I try to write in the moment, I have a hard time sorting out thoughts. It is too overwhelming, especially when it comes to love and breakups. I like to let some time go by and look at things from a distance and it is usually then that I can figure out exactly what I was thinking and find better words to say it in song.

Stoli: As a young and attractive woman, you must have your experiences with love. How much does your personal life come out in your songwriting?

Justina: Although I do enjoy writing about fictional scenarios, and situations other than love, a majority is based off of my own personal life, and I think it’s just what comes most natural to me. I am an emotionally driven person, I like to write from the heart and keep things as honest as possible. I don’t want to bore people with my problems though, so I usually try to find a good balance between fact and fiction.

Justina “Formula” Video:
SKOPE IT HERE!
Stoli: You have developed an impressive portfolio of music, videos, images, etc. How important is signing to a major label or are you happy pursuing the indie route?

Justina: Thanks! Signing with a major label used to be my main goal with my career, but I think the majors are in pretty bad shape these days. I am pretty comfortable with where I am at as far as being able to put out the music I make, and make the videos I make at my own pace, and not really have anyone breathing down my neck, trying to create another pop star. I think there is a lot of control the majors have over their artists, and to me that is really a shame. I don’t mind pursuing the indie route. It does get tough though, budget-wise, to not be able to do certain things like record full albums, or do nation wide touring because I still have a day job.

Stoli: Coming up as a musician what other female singer/songwriters did you admire & why?

Justina: I really admire lyricists like Stevie Nicks, Jewel, and Vanessa Carlton because they always have an interesting story to tell, whether it’s fictional or real. They know how to draw you in. I also really admire strong vocalists like Christina Aguilera, Pat Benatar, and Janis Joplin because there is an incredible rawness about all of their vocals. If you hear anyone of them on the radio, you would recognize them right away because they all have a unique style. It’s important to have something that sets you apart from the rest. That’s how people remember you.

Stoli: With the election coming up next week what issue is the most important to you when you vote?

Justina: Although I do think this is probably the most controversial election of my life so far, I really try to keep politics out of my songwriting. I am planning to vote this election, but I really don’t believe in preaching my beliefs to people whether it’s about politics or religion, because I don’t think it changes anything. Everyone has their own beliefs. To each their own, who am I to judge about what others believe?

Stoli: When you are preparing to perform live, what do you do to get prepared?

Justina: I don’t really have any special pre-show rituals. I do warm up on my guitar, and my vocals though. I used to get really nervous before shows, so I used to put on “My Sherona” and dance off the pre-stage butterflies. It kinda helped, hehehe.

Stoli: In 2005, you donated a song “Believe” to help raise money for Cancer & blood disorders. What made you choose this worthy cause?

Justina: I was in NYC doing a photo shoot back in 2005, and the building I was in was holding this benefit for this organization called Lainie’s Angels. We had asked if I could sing a few songs for them, but they didn’t have a microphone or equipment, but they were interested in having me involved with the organization in some way. They were holding a soccer event that October, which they asked me to sing at and I agreed to gladly. While I was there, I decided to check out the merch booth, and I saw a greeting card with the angel logo and the word “Believe” on it. I had already written a song called “Believe” a couple years prior to this experience, so I thought it was so fitting to donate the song to such a cause. So I talked with the founder, Stathi Afendoulis, whose daughter Lainie had lost her battle with the awful disease in 2000. He told my family and I Lainie’s story and I just felt like I had to do something to help raise awareness. I ended up recording the song for them on a CD Single, and now they sell the CDs at their events. All of the proceeds go back into the organization. I have been singing “Believe” at their soccer event every October for about 5 years now. If I can touch people’s lives with a song, then I have done my job as a songwriter :-D. You can learn more about how you can help out Lainie’s Angels at www.LainiesAngels.com!

Stoli: When you are not working on your music career what do you like to do in your own time off?

Justina: I like to support my fellow musicians, I like to go to other bands’ shows and listen to the new music out there. I also like to collage furniture, and paint. I like to read a lot, I have become quite the book nerd lately! I love the works of Francesca Lia Block and Stephenie Meyer.

Stoli: If there was one thing you want my readers to know about Justina what would that be?

Justina: It’s been a long hard road so far and it’s such a struggle to get your music heard as an up and coming musician. I just want people to listen to my music and feel like they know me. Because that is what my music is: it’s my love, my anger, my humor, and my sadness. It’s just me, and I hope I can inspire others to share their stories as well whether it’s through music, poetry, paintings, or any other art form! :-D

Stoli: Thank you, all the best!

Justina: Thank you so much!!

Formed in South Plainfield, New Jersey by Justina Carubia (vocals) and Avinash Patel (guitar) in 2009, Stelladeora harnesses a heavy indie pop rock feel into their music.

There is maturity in their music that can only be learned through passion, experience, and the hustle in the indie music scene. Stelladeora makes their EP debut releasing the offering, “A Dosage From Delusional”. With heart pumping drums, solid rhythmic guitar work, melodic bass lines, and blistering vocals, the rock in this EP is far from a delusion but rather a reality check that the indie music scene in New Jersey is about to make a big impact.

The current line up is Justina Carubia (vocals), Avinash Patel (guitar), Neil Brown (bass), and Mike Lyon (drums).

“A Dosage From Delusional” is available from www.stelladeora.bandcamp.com for FREE download.
