Powered by four guitars and a dynamic rhythm section, Seven Stone rocks with the best of them while maintaining a danceable groove throughout our sets. We cover a diverse selection of material that includes great classic and southern rock tunes from the 60's and 70's, danceable radio hits from the 80's, a handful of 90's rock, and even some soulful funky stuff thrown into the mix.
The band members are all veterans of the New Jersey club circuit and have played with many of New Jersey's top bands including The Hostages, The Liberty Band, No Clue, De'Funked, and Long Shot to name a few. Although Seven Stone has been around since 2004, the current line-up has been performing together since 2009, most recently adding Jim Pallitto on vocals/guitar, and Steve O'Neil on drums.
