New Jersey Stage 2015: Issue 7 | Page 79

‘What are you doing here?’ We played Rockland, Maine last 4th of July and we’ve been there four or five times since. Each time, we keep meeting cool people and they help spread the word about us. They’re just pumped that we’re going to Rockland, they’re like ‘No one comes to Rockland.’ Well, people should definitely go to Rockland, it’s a great town and only two hours north of Portland, so if you go to Boston you might as well do Portland and Rockland if you can. “The other day we played a biker bar in Fort Wayne, Indiana and we passed out a bunch of our pins,” continued Dean. “This one dude was all about it. And we’re laughing in the car on the way out thinking about all these incredible tough bikers wearing our pins on their jackets!” Locally, Cranston Dean has participated in many benefit shows, performed at the Asbury Music Awards, and did a set at TedX Watch Cranston Dean Perform “Wishful Thinking” NewJerseyStage.com 2015 - ISSUE 7 79
