About doorjam

Formed in 1993 as the music leaders of a contemporary worship service, “a different door,” doorjam’s diverse musical backgrounds include gospel, folk, rock, show tunes, marching band, and traditional church music.

Distinctive arrangements and four-part harmonies, both on their original music and covers, have been combined to create the unique “doorjam sound.” The group is comprised of Vicky Chalk, Jill Fenske, and Jainine Gambaro on vocals; Linda Ribaudo, vocals and percussion and  Joe Ribaudo on guitar and percussion. Performing throughout the tri-state region, the group’s venues have included local and regional church concerts, worship services, retreats and special events, as well as secular community gatherings and outdoor music festivals. doorjam has also performed for the New Jersey Red Cross Telethon on cable television, and appears annually at the Ocean Grove Gospel Music Series.

Discography includes “a thousand echoes,” which features original music and the group’s signature vocal harmonies. This CD follows their well-received Advent and Christmas album, “Carols at the Door.” Also available for bookings is “A Pilgrim’s Psalm” a contemporary Oratorio for Holy Week. The 50-minute multimedia production focuses on the events in the Bible that begin with Palm Sunday and end at the empty tomb on Easter morning. The original songs bring the story to life in contemporary musical form, and are partnered with oil paintings by New Jersey artist, Lucy Janjigian.
