Who is M.E.R.K ? M.E.R.K is one of the country's newest up and coming pop bands hailing from Columbus N.J. The name of the group is derived from the first initial of each of their first names. The group is comprised of four talented 14 year olds with Evan Kreutzberg on lead vocals and guitar, Ryan Kreutzberg on drums and vocals, Mike Visalli on bass guitar and vocals and Kristen Kreutzberg on keyboards and vocals. Even at this young age the group has performed at such venues such as Six Flags Great Adventure, the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury park, the Sun Bank Arena for a Harlem Globetrotters game and are repeatedly called back to perform again and again as disbelieving fans want to see these young kids do it again!

Now this social minded pop group is ready to show the world their talents as they are releasing their first single "I Don't Need Nobody" showcasing their harmonious melodies and instrumental skills.
