We wanted to spotlight an impressive indie/folk rock band, Ferentz and The Felons. They just released their new debut EP, Hudson County on April 1st and we are already hooked. The band features the music which is inspired from the life of frontman Zak Ferentz, who is also guitarist and songwriter. Zak comments,
“All of my music is inspired by my life, real situations that made me who I am. From watching my parents battle drug addiction to running the streets to earn a living, this is a story about urban America that is best described as “folk from the streets”. “
One thing is certain when you take a listen, you are immediately drawn to the story of the songs as Zak sings from the heart and his emotionally driven lyrics come to life. Each song revolves issues and emotions that so many have experienced and struggled with. The songs take a hold of you and provide the hope and strength to continue on and rise above. You are drawn to the journey of the music and you can’t help but feel a strong emotional connection. Very well written and superbly performed. The band includes bassist Robert Dudziak and drummer Matt Waz.
