  • Newark, NJ (1888PressRelease) October 25, 2011 - Mark your calendar for the very auspicious date of November 11, 2011 -- 11-11-11! That night, rising Jersey Shore-area artist Anjelia Pelay celebrates the release of her debut full-length album, Believe (Indigo Planet Records). Anjelia is a true quintuple threat -- actress, dancer, singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist -- and hasquickly risen through the region's ranks. In other words, she's no ordinary somber singer-songwriter girl at the guitar, and she's got a multimedia spectacle up her sleeves that promises an evening unlike any other typical local show.

    In the past year that she's devoted full time to music, besides guest starring frequently in Glen Burtnik's Beatlemania productions, she's sung backup for Patty Smyth, and opened for Nicole Atkins, Jeffrey Gaines, and Shannon McNally. The Aquarian dubbed her "worth watching" after one of her early performances in Manhattan, and the Trentonian recently called her a "multi-talented" "statuesque beauty" who is "the total package."

    Now, she gets her own turn to headline, at a fittingly historic venue: the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park. Anjelia will appear backed by a full five-piece band led by musical director and Believe producer Jeff Plate (Nicole Atkins, the Gay Blades). A trio of fellow talented area singers like Emily Grove will also sing backup.

    But that's not all. Anjelia has also worked with choreographer and filmmaker Pete Carter to create a full-on theatrical production that includes original short films, a corps of four back-up dancers, and even special effects.

    This show is all ages. Other acts on the bill include Michael Dante Summonte and Town Hall. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. Friday, November 11 at the Stone Pony, 913 Ocean Ave., Asbury Park, New Jersey (732-502-0600, stoneponyonline.com). Tickets cost $10 in advance at the Stone Pony box office and via Ticketmaster, or $12 at the door.
