THE BRIDGE Signs With HYENA Records
Set To Release Self-Titled Album In Midst of U.S. Fall Tour
 The Bridge |
Baltimore-based grassroots phenoms The Bridge have signed with HYENA Records. The band's self-titled studio album will be released on October 23 in the midst of a coast to coast U.S. Fall tour. Forming out of Baltimore, The Bridge's roots date back to 2001 when guitarist, vocalist and principle songwriter Cris Jacobs decided to forego the traditional expectations of his University of Amherst degree and pursue music full time. Upon reuniting with high school friend Kenny Liner (who'd recently returned from a stint living in Hawaii where he learned mandolin), the two found an immediate chemistry playing music together. They'd solidify the band's core line-up with the addition of saxophonist Patrick Rainey, bassist Dave Markowitz and drummer Mike Gambone. The Bridge has since blossomed into a national touring act with a devoted fan-base, veteran status on the Summer festival circuit and a steadily growing buzz around the U.S.
