JOHN TRUBEE

From the 1990 album, Strange Hippie Sex Carnival: A lively instrumental that really evokes its title phrase.

Trubee grew up in Princeton and has worked with the eccentric rocker, Zoogz Rift. He is now based in Santa Rosa, California.

New Jersey celebrated its 350th birthday in 2014. And in the 350 Jersey Songs series, we marked the occasion by posting 350 songs — one a day, from September 2014 to September 2015 — that have something to do with the state, its musical history, or both. To see the entire list, click here.
