Were happy to say  we will be playing again at the Knitting Factory NYC with Lido Beach, on August 7th at 8.

Get there.

Were going to be playing at Freehold Mall for G-Rock Radio’s Summer Concert Series on July 16th at 6 PM.

you should come. you can go shopping and support the economy.

Its been a long time since the last post.

We will be playing every Thursday in July (except the 10th) at Rockn Joe on Prospect Street in Westfield, near the fire station. Each night itll be at around 8. Feel free to drop some change on us.

The Westfield street festival, The Spring Fling, took place yesterday (sunday, april 27). We played for something like 40 minutes… unfortunately had to play Light Show twice because the people running the stage wanted to extend the set. Which is not to say that we dont like Light Show, but we do have an idea of what our sets are supposed to be before we go on, and playing the first song twice is not generally in there, though we’ve done it before. As a joke. So it goes.

On the whole, we didnt think we played very well, but the people seemed to enjoy it, and thats generally what matters in the end.

Theres some chatter about our show with Smoosh and Tokyo Police Club at the Bowery Ballroom last night by blogs Music for Moodies, The Poshlust Carpetbagger, and some folks on Brooklyn Vegan. Check them out for yourself.

Our review: Lets put it this way…we were confident in the quality of our show. Smoosh played an awesome set, and TPC was fuckin incredible.

‘Northern Bank’ has been featured on the blog Indie Music Filter… check it

This is to make sure the following message stays at the top of the info list:

Our Bowery Ballroom show with Tokyo Police Club and Smoosh is this Sunday, 4/20. As of right now, it is sold out, but there should be some tickets on stubhub.com or somewhere like that.

On Sunday, April 6, TSJ’s own “Northern Bank” could be heard on the show ‘Zoey 101′. That means that, at one time, approximately 7-8 million people were listening to the Static Jacks, which we think is pretty cool. Keep looking for songs off the Sonny Halliday EP to appear on Nickelodeon in the future, for they shall.

We have a number of new videos on youtube thanks to G-Rock Radio, who featured us on their program G-Rock Rising with Erin Vogt. We did an interview and played “Light Show” and “Wine Cellar” acoustically.

We have a number of new shows coming up:

April 27th - the Westfield street festival, Sping Fling

May 21st - Pianos in NYC, (21+)

June 8th - The Annex in NYC (18+)

…more on these as they come up.
