(NEWTON, NJ) -- Better Than Ezra will perform at The Newton Theatre on Thursday, March 26, 2026. Doors are at 7:00pm, showtime is 8:00pm. For over 35 years, the alt-rock icons have maintained a direct line to the unbridled joy of making music, endlessly dreaming up songs with an uncanny power to linger forever in the listener's heart.
Since the arrival of their breakthrough album Deluxe—a platinum selling LP featuring their era-defining smash hit “Good”—the New Orleans-bred band’s bittersweet but quick-witted songwriting and supremely catchy sound have led to triumphs like landing on Billboard’s “100 Greatest Alternative Artists of All Time” and “100 Greatest Alternative Songs of All Time” lists, building an adoring following who call themselves Ezralites, and achieving major pop-culture milestones like getting name-checked in a classic skit on Saturday Night Live.
Their first album in a decade, Super Magick ultimately sets Better Than Ezra apart from legions of legacy acts and reveals a band more enchanted than ever with the sublime alchemy of truly heartfelt rock-and-roll. Other Better Than Ezra hits include “King of New Orleans”, “Desperately Wanting”, “A Lifetime” and “Juicy”.
Tickets start at $69 and are available for purchase online starting Friday, January 16 at 10:00am. The Newton Theatre is located at 234 Spring Street in Newton, New Jersey.
The Newton Theatre was founded in 1924. It is a beautifully restored 605 seat performing arts center in the heart of Sussex County, presenting diverse programming, including world-renowned music acts, comedians, family productions, holiday shows and much more.
