Glen Burtnick is an artist from New Jersey that I always thought should have been the 'next one' from Jersey. He released several solo albums, was a member of Styx for a while, and is part of The Weeklings now.
This was his second album and included a minor hit in "Follow You" (I was at the video shoot in Philadelphia). Songs like "Spinning My Wheels" and "Abelene" are among the best in his catalog. The entire album is very strong; it just didn't get the record label support it needed, imo.
Here is a look at shows taking place from February 17-23, 2026 along with our featured listings and a look at some upcoming shows. New Jersey Stage offers previews of concerts throughout the Garden State as well as select shows in New York City and Philadelphia areas.
