About / Biography

The Jersey Riff is a 5 person band with both Male and Female leads on vocals. Our band consists of two Guitars (Rhthym and Lead), Bass and Drummer followed by Lead and Background vocals. We are from Bergen County, New Jersey and have been around the North East area for over 2 years now. We play all night sets for bars, venues, festivals and private events. We cover any top hits of the decades from mainly Rock and Pop genres, but also hit areas in Country, Jazz, and Holiday. We play minimum 2 hour sets with 5-10 break in between, but will expand for longer sets if need be. We provide full band setup with PA sound system included.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

Wanaque PBA Food Truck Festival '22 & '23

Bardi's Bar & Grill - Pequannock NJ


What's your favourite type of event?

Large Festivals, outdoor or indoor! Outdoors are normally more fun though and the energy is higher we find!


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

We are huge fans of the 90s and early 2000s music especially Foo Fighters who have been a big influence on our setlist. Everlong is easily one of our best and favorite songs to incorporate and always gets the crowd wild!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Our gigs mainly consist of 3 60-minute long sets divided up throughout the night. We usually arrive 2-2.5 hours early to setup and soundcheck our band and takes roughly 1-2 hours to breakdown and pack up at the end of the night


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes! Tent or shade of some sort would be preferable if possible!


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Clients are more than welcome to give us band or decade recommendations but we limit specific requests to about 3 depending on time frame. We have a fully updated Spotify setlist of our entire repertoire that clients can also choose from and we can send to them beforehand.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Upbeat, energetic while also knowing how to bring the chill "slow-dancing" energy out when it's the right time to do so. Mainly a top 40's Rock & Pop hit that you can always find a song to dance & sing to along with friendly outgoing energy!
