The Ginge (‘jinj)– Defined as "short for ginger" by the band, “Ginge” means liveliness, sprit and vigor. e.g.,  “now that girl’s got some ginge.”  Combining melodious vocals, soaring lead guitar and a driving rhythm section, The Ginge offer an infectious and spirited sampling of classic and newer rock (both well-known and obscure), soulful rhythm and blues and well-crafted original material. The group's chameleon like repertoire and eclectic mix of music brings an infectious energy to any venue, event or private party.

NEWS BREAK!  IN FEBRUARY AND MARCH OF 2010, THE GINGE IS IN STUDIO RECORDING A THIRD ALBUM TENTATIVELY TITLED "NEVER GO EASY".  STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES AND DOWNLOADS!
