(NEWARK, NJ) -- New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents an evening with singer-songwriter Jackson Browne for the first time on Thursday, April 6, 2017 at 8:00pm. Browne is the folk-rock hero behind some of the most literate and moving songs in popular music: “Doctor My Eyes,” “Running on Empty,” “The Pretender,” “Somebody’s Baby,” “Stay/The Load Out,” and more. He will be appearing with multi-instrumentalist Greg Leisz. Tickets range from $49.50 to $99.50.
Since his classic debut album was released back in 1972, Browne has been a powerful force in popular music, known for his signature sound of country-tinged folk-rock. He has since released 14 studio albums and four collections of live performances. Along the way, Browne has been inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
His most recent studio album, Standing in the Breach, is an acclaimed collection of songs that are both deeply personal and political, exploring love, hope, and defiance amidst the uncertainties of modern life. In its review of the album, Rolling Stone wrote: “This is a superb, inspiring album (of) deeply felt folk-rock … Jackson Browne remains one of America's most visionary and important songwriters.”
NJPAC is located at One Center Street in Newark, NJ.
