The Outcrops (Matinee Show)

Sunday, October 11, 2026 @ 3:00pm
Lizzie Rose Music Room
Tuckerton, NJ

This matinee performance will mark the return of The Outcrops to the Lizzie Rose Music Room. Their debut at the Lizzie Rose last year showcased a band that had all the ingredients to be something special. Their return will  prove that they have continued to elevate their game and will deliver a stellar evening of jams. The addition of a keyboard player fills up their arrangements and adds a whole new dimension to their sound. They deliver a perfect mix of songs from their new album and some very cool covers. To expound on that thought a bit, they usually drop the iconic jam "Sissy Strut" by proving they can get down with the funk.

James Maddock

Sunday, October 11, 2026 @ 7:30pm
Outpost In The Burbs
Montclair, NJ

James Maddock’s status as a fixture on the Folk and Americana scene is confirmed with every listen of any song in his prodigious catalog. Relix Magazine put it this way: “James Maddock possesses the kind of lived-in craggy voice that would sound authoritative if he were singing the sports pages. Fortunately, he doesn't need to do that because his compositional skills are a match for his delivery."
