Today’s pump up jam(s) come from Scranton based rock band, University Drive. Ed Cuozzo has been one of my favorite musicians for the better part of a decade. Ed’s voice is honest, beautiful and just gritty enough; it’s as if it was designed specifically for the purpose of being the singer in a rock and roll band. If I was to write down my 25 favorite songs, at least 5 of them would be involve Cuozzo influences. Ed’s new project, University Drive, has recently signed with Fightless Records to release “On/Off:Reset.” Shout out to Fightless Records for recognizing and taking a chance on greatness.
If you like alternative rock that’s influenced and rocks like Nirvana, The Foo Fighters, Say Anything, Brand New, with the song writing prowess of Elliot Smith, Bright Eyes, etc. You’re going to love University Drive. Listen to their album below. Shout out, Keith Perks for the photo.
