NOTABLE LOCALS, VOL. 2
With the start of a new month comes another round of Jersey Shore-connected bands worth checking out:
deSOL:
This Asbury Park group's lineup has changed since its self-titled Curb Records album was released a few years ago, but deSol's Latin-rock sound remains intact -- and the same goes for its lively stage show. Singer Albie Monterrosa and company have been in Texas recently to record a new studio album, which is expected this summer.

Upcoming gigs:
Feb. 2 and 9: The Wonder Bar -- Asbury Park
NICOLE ATKINS
Singer/songwriter Atkins grew up in the Neptune area. Last year, Columbia released her Bleeding Diamonds EP -- at times it's quirky and folky, plus it has nice instrumental touches and crafty backing vocals. According to her Web site, Atkins has been in the studio recently putting the finishing touches on a full-length album.
