Reggae and Ska: Two styles of music, one born of the other. Both tug at your heart and feet, making you want to move and groove. Two styles of music that are rare in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware. Reggae and Ska: Two styles of music that have always been about social change, racial equality, political issues and global consciousness. Are you tired of hearing the same old thing? Fink’s Constant is ready to bring refreshing sounds of original music to your area.
Fink’s Constant is comprised of six men. Chad McCartney’s trumpet can cut through a room like a laser or bathe you in a warm sound that feels as good as a hot shower. Either way at the end of the night you know you’re clean from the sermon Chad’s delivered with his horn. Don Wood’s trombone croons, with deep, blended tones, like your father laying down the law or calling you home, proclaiming it’s time for knowledge to be dispensed. Fingers dance across a guitars fret board drawing the ladies in with their strength, speed and accuracy. Youthful enthusiasm pushes Zak Nye’s sound forward whether taking the lead or laying down a rhythm binding each piece together like the glue for a book-binding spine. Lights bounce off a sheer head as the freight train known as Mike Fox moves in to deliver his lyrics with the force of a hurricane. A dire plea balanced with humor from a man who respects the message but refuses take his self too seriously. All this great sound must have something to stand on. John Micek on bass provides a concrete pillar for this house to sit atop, an anchor that keeps the ship from drifting to far from home. Meanwhile, Andy Hartman IS this vessels engine, it’s heartbeat. His snare, kick- drum and high-hat like the hands of a clock that not only keep time, but make time.
For three years Fink’s Constant has honed and perfected it’s sound playing over 250 gigs at over 50 different venues. Fink’s Constant has a library of over 60 songs, over 40 of which are originals written by either Mike Fox or Chad McCartney. The band has also self-produced three albums, two studio and one live, earning the respect of anyone they have played for. Fink’s Constant continues to write, record and seek out new places to perform to further their musical message.

Hey all you Mafia fans!
We've got some awesome news, and some not so awesome news. The awesome news is that we have a SHOW ON JUNE 12TH at the 1st Baptist Church in Westfield, NJ! It's gonna be an wonderous lineup.
The not so awesome news is that we're breaking up, and THIS IS THE LAST TIME EVER TO SEE THE MAFIA PLAY. After this, there will be no more Cats Pooping on Pillows, no more Michael J Fox attempting to play Nintendo Wii, and most of all, no more Nosebleeds.
And we're gonna divorce Awful Waffle LIVE on stage.
