about

"Eyes on the Prize They're just like your high school jam band…except they're actually talented. Nestled in the South Jersey suburb of Sewell lives a group of your average American boys. Some of them are equipped with side swept bangs, and all of them sport-fitted jeans and tee shirts. They address each other as "dude" and discuss girls and video games. They joke around talking in a pseudo Bill Cosby voice and take Kit Kat Breaks. They're easily distracted by a Stone Cold Steve Austin plaque and the fact that the playing card isn't in it anymore. However, when they pick up their instruments, the group dynamic changes. The current band members include Patrick McCue (18, lead singer and guitar), Karl Swanson (18, guitar), Kyle McCloskey (18, bass), Kevin Ferry (20, drums) and recently acquired Dean Marchese (19, guitar and back up vocals). Most of the members were originally involved in a different band during their early music career and came together during high school. They started out as The Atlantic, but had to change their name after a band from New Jersey called New Atlantic got signed. Being left with the opportunity to change their name, they considered a couple of names and settled with a name that explains exactly what they're doing- keeping their Eyes on the Prize. Despite most of the members being 18, these boys are seasoned musicians. They grew up in South Jersey in a typical suburb.
