Hot on the heels of their blowout performance at this year’s Bang This! CMJ, New Jersey’s Lost Romance has been nominated for a 2011 Hoboken Music Award for Outstanding E.P. for their debut “The Light And The Dark” (Starving Dog Records).

Lost Romance is no stranger to the Hobey’s since lead singer/guitarist, Gerry Perlinski was nominated for Outstanding Male Solo during the 2010 HMA’s. Back with an electric band and penchant for full out rock anthems, Gerry’s hoping to grab some of that Hoboken limelight this time around.

About the HMAs:
The Hoboken Music Awards were started in 2009 by Dave Entwistle. Entwistle is the long-time host of the Peoples Open Mic, a weekly showcase for local artists in town. The concept of the awards was to honor those artists and the people who help promote the music scene in and around the Hoboken area. The inaugural event, held at the now defunct Goldhawk, was a huge success. 2010′s HMAs nearly burst the walls of Northern Soul. This year’s event, planned with the help of local writer Stephen Bailey, is happy to call Maxwell’s its home.


Lost Romance is set to perform at this year’s CMJ 2011 Music Marathon in New York City on October 19th. BANG THIS! CMJ 2011 is a party for L.A. based Starving Dog Records,  NYC revival rock label Bang Bang Boogaloo and N.J.’s Killing Horse Records.

NJ indie rocker, Gerry Perlinski has formed a new band called Lost Romance. Lost Romance features drummer Chris DeRosa (Jesse Malin, Debbie Harry) and bassist Dan Fabricatore (Shirk Circus, The Simulations).

With a new E.P. already in the can, Lost Romance recently signed with L.A. based label, Starving Dog Records. Perlinski says, “I was in the process of recording some songs for a solo album. But as we got further into the recording and mixing, it became clear these songs had more of a band feel to them.” The new 4 song E.P. is titled “The Light and The Dark”. Recorded at Brooklyn’s Seaside Lounge (New Pornographers, The National, Nicole Atkins) and Lower East Side studio, Flow NY (The Hold Steady, Robert Plant, Grace Potter & The Nocturnals).

The E.P. was mixed and mastered by producer David Pattillo at Flow NY. With influences from Buffalo Tom, Husker Du and The Police, Lost Romance brings back real rock with a no nonsense approach. No synths, hipster bullshit or ironic clothing, these guys are all about the music.
