***CENTRAL NEW JERSEY'S PUNK ROCK PIONEERS SINCE 1994***

Compared by some to Social Distortion, Misfits, Cheap Trick, Ramones, Green Day, Face To Face, and Credence....... Sharkys Machine was formed in 1994 and is based in Long Branch, NJ. Between 1994-2008 they were a fixture on the Jersey Shore Punk/Rock Scene headlining shows at The Stone Pony, Club Bene, Birch Hill, Brighton Bar, Fastlane, and many other venues! Between 2008-2020, Sharkys was mostly involved with festivals, benefits, and induction ceremonies. They were recognized in 2019 for their 25 years of contribution to New Jersey music and their band name was honored onto the Wall of Fame at the Brighton Bar alongside all of NJ's best!

To quote one magazine, "Sharkys Machine is all about booze, broads, and hot rods. Punk rock should be fun and Sharkys delivers!"
