I found myself going to Asbury Park, it was a way for me to get away from everything going on at home."

Makin Waves with Greg Amici: Comeback of the Year

by Bob Makin
published 2026-01-07
The talent of a renaissance man is deeply mysterious, especially when writing and acting in Hollywood mushrooms into a 16-year hiatus from music made since a teen. That’s the beginning of the musical equivalent of the "Rocky" story of Greg Amici, an East Brunswick-raised, North Jersey-based singer-songwriter whose many friends within the Jersey and national music scenes have helped him make a Sinatra-like comeback.

"I'm playing with a friend of mine, Husky Burnette and he does sort of a heavy blues rock kind of thing. We don't tour much but we just finished an album that is coming out some time in the Spring.

Jazz at the Morris Museum: Bassist/Vocalist Thaddeus Exposé Celebrates the Music and History of New Orleans

by Andrew Schinder
published 2026-01-01
The City of New Orleans, obviously, holds a mythical status in the world of jazz. The genre (or at least the form with which listeners are familiar) was invented and developed there, and every jazz musician – from the swingiest to the most avant-garde – holds at least some debt to the bygone inhabitants of the Big Easy. However, while the city is rightfully revered for its place in jazz history, its musicians tell a more complicated story.
