They’ve done it again! Plainfield, NJ’s favorite sons, THE DOUGHBOYS, have come up with another stupendous slice of the catchiest rock’n’roll this side of the Passaic River!

Their second album ACT YOUR RAGE takes the world by storm on January 1, 2010 when THE DOUGHBOYS unleash sixteen new songs concocted once again with the able assistance of recording engineer KURT REIL (Grip Weeds) & mastering engineer ED STASIUM (Ramones, Living Colour, Smithereens, Marshall Crenshaw).

I’M NOT YOUR MAN - the first single from ACT YOUR RAGE – has already been chosen as the Coolest Song In The World by LITTLE STEVEN VAN ZANDT on his UNDERGROUND GARAGE show on Sirius/XM Satellite Radio! You may recall that THE DOUGHBOYS’ first single off their debut album, BLACK SHEEP, was likewise honored by LITTLE STEVEN & CO. & in fact was named the #2 Coolest Song in the World for all of 2008!

THE DOUGHBOYS consist of Myke Scavone, lead vocals; Richard X. Heyman, drums & vocals; Gar Francis, guitar & vocals; & Mike Caruso, bass & vocals. THE DOUGHBOYS were one of the most popular of central Jersey’s bands in the ‘60’s. Mike & Richie formed the group with guitarist Willy Kirchofer in the fall of ‘64 & called it The Ascots. A year later Mike Farina & Myke Scavone from rival band The Apollos came on board. The Ascots changed their name to The Doughboys in ‘66 & got a recording contract with Bell Records by winning a battle-of-the-bands on Zacherle’s Disc-o-teen TV show. They put out two singles – “Rhoda Mendelbaum” & “Everybody Knows My Name”, as the band played weekly WMCA Good Guys shows all over the tri-state area. They were the house band at the legendary Café Wha? in Greenwich Village during the summer of ’68.

See THE DOUGHBOYS live as they celebrate the release of ACT YOUR RAGE at Asbury Lanes in Asbury Park, NJ on December 11, 2009 and at Crossroads in Garwood, NJ on Friday, January 22, 2010.
