Corinne Bailey Rae Live Concert Review

by Vanessa Tirok
published 2023-06-19
On June 6, 2023 a wide variety of folks gathered at Princeton’s McCarter Theatre to enjoy a performance by UK artist Corinne Bailey Rae. Seriously, it was probably one of the most interesting of audiences I’ve ever seen as an avid concert goer, with attendees ranging from early-twenty-something college students to middle aged couples to grey-haired women. My theory is that if you discovered Corinne Bailey Rae during her debut back in 2006 (I’m talking “Like A Star” “Put Your Records On” era), you were either an adult, driving and hearing her on the car radio for the first time, or you were a kid in the backseat listening along. I was the latter. CBR’s music has been a huge part of my life from a young age, so it only felt right to see the legend herself perform in person.

North Jersey Blues Society Seeks to Bring Blues Music Back to the Community

by Zachary Klein, JerseyArts.com
published 2023-06-15
Blues music is an American standard genre dating back decades to the 1890s. Tradition has kept up as many blues artists still have careers today that began many years ago. However, in some areas, blues has not been preserved as well as others. One of those areas is Northern New Jersey, where a new organization strives to put this once-widely regarded genre back into the cities and towns of Morris and other northern counties. This organization is the North Jersey Blues Society, and since its founding in winter 2022, has hosted many events within the North Jersey community seeking to spread awareness of the genre.

by Bob Makin
published 2023-06-15
It's very rare that a local musician can run his own label for more than 30 years, but that Mick Chorba has done so as the founder of two successful local bands is something I don't believe I've seen elsewhere in 43 years of writing about the New Jersey music scene and 35 years producing Makin Waves!
