Join us for our monthly music showcase featuring singer-songwriters Michael Askin, Jerry Smith, Debbie Gangemi and Tom Flynn.
ABOUT THE PERFORMERS
MICHAEL ASKIN is a singer/songwriter with the unique ability to combine everyday, slice of life images with larger philosophical themes. Once the “guitarist with mystique” in such Jersey rock bands as Divine Sign and My State of Attraction, Michael has forged ahead as a solo artist, releasing his third EP, Road by the River, in 2017. A travelogue of sorts, Road by the River evokes images of a world weary traveler, criss-crossing the country by car and train, searching for who knows what.
JERRY SMITH Singer-songwriter, multi-award winning author, retired social worker and English professor, Jerry loves being part of the local music scene where he enjoys playing oldies rock n’ roll & Motown songs along with his originals. He has a Facebook presence, and Jerry can also be found at his author website at www.ejerrysmith.com.
TOM FLYNN writes songs with meticulously crafted lyrics which blend Rock, Pop, and Folk. Tom’s music has been compared to Jackson Browne, REM, The Cars, Bob Dylan, and The Moody Blues. His single, Automatic People, has been played on over 60 college radio stations. Travels, Tom’s debut album was released last year and is currently licensed to several TV networks include Nascar, The Discovery Network, and The Oprah Winfrey Network.
