Woodbury, New Jersey punk outfit Jersey Calling have dropped their latest single, “X Americana”. Blending Americana’s storytelling vibe with punk rock attitude, the track is powered by punchy guitar riffs and a driving rhythm section—anchored by tight dual vocal interplay from Josh Kates and Victoria Maffei-Kates.
Known for their dynamic male‑female vocal pairing, Jersey Calling follow in the footsteps of bands that thrive on contrasting voices in punk. Their previous album Parasocial Security drew praise for its relatable punch and duo vocals.
“X Americana” pushes that into new territory combining raw punk urgency with lyrical Americana warmth. Recorded and mixed in Pennsylvania, it’s a solid showcase of their evolution and consistent DIY ethos. If you’ve been following Jersey Calling’s journey from Punk Rock Retirement through Parasocial Security, this single is a compelling next step.
