It’s been 20 years since the world lost one of its most gifted, respected, and haunted musicians. Warren Zevon bravely battled a rare form of cancer, writing, recording, and performing his music, right up to the last day of his ‘Dirty Life and Times’.
A generational songwriter, revered by industry peers, Warren enjoyed a cult following with limited commercial success. His huge mainstream hits, Werewolves of London and Lawyers, Guns & Money, are a small sample of a vast catalog of music that has been recorded by Linda Ronstadt, the Turtles, Jackson Browne, Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Garcia and the evenings host, Pat Guadagno.
Pat’s recording of Zevon’s Don’t Let Us Get Sick became an international classic when it was featured in Showtime’s award-winning series, CALIFORNICATION.
To honor and celebrate the music of Warren Zevon, Guadagno has assembled an All-Star cast that includes Rock & Roll Hall-of-Famer Vini Lopez, Award winning singer-songwriter-activist Arlan Feiles and RCA recording artist Jake Thistle.
Anyone who has been to one of Guadagno’s musical celebrations, BobFest (Bob Dylan), A Marvelous Night (Van Morrison), or Heart of Saturday Night (Tom Waits) Souvenirs (John Prine), Leonard Cohen (Hallelujah) knows to expect a passionate, reverent delivery of the music of Warren Zevon, Mr. Bad Example.

Stolen Gin is a dance-funk quintet from New York City, known for their high-energy live act and avid improvisation – they never play songs the same way twice. Stolen Gin first came together playing college parties on NYC rooftops, and their goal then was the same as it is now: to make every gig feel like a party, and to keep people dancing.

Descendents
2025-08-02 00:00 | The Wellmont Theater, 5 Seymour St, Montclair, NJ, 07042, United States
Since first emerging from (and defining) the Southern California pop-punk scene in 1978, the legendary Descendents have released classic after classic, from their landmark 1982 LP Milo Goes to College to 2016’s Hypercaffium Spazzinate. Now, after issuing a flurry of singles to get fans through the past few years, the band — Milo Aukerman (vocals), Bill Stevenson (drums), Stephen Egerton (guitar), and Karl Alvarez (bass) — will be touring in support of a new album. With a very cool twist.
What started with Milo Goes to College now comes full circle on the blistering 9th & Walnut (Epitaph), a “lost album” quietly recorded in 2002 by the MGTC lineup of Stevenson, Aukerman, Tony Lombardo on bass, and Frank Navetta (d. 2008) on guitar. Audiences should be geared up for shows featuring songs spanning Descendents’ incredible career, from “Suburban Home” and “Silly Girl” to “I’m the One” and “Without Love,” and including 9th & Walnut tracks like first single “Baby Doncha Know” and its incendiary follow-up, “Nightage.”

Aidan Canfield
2025-08-03 00:00 | Wonder Bar, 1213 Ocean Avenue, Asbury Par, New Jersey, 07712, United States
Aidan Canfield’s artistry infuses a unique combination of rock and country influences from the sounds that he grew up on – a little bit of Seger and Springsteen, a little bit of Kenny Chesney meets Zach Bryan. His heartfelt lyrics and melodies have struck a chord of relatability he’s witnessed on the road on support dates with artists such as Riley Green.
When the pandemic hit in 2020, Aidan used the time to discover his passion for playing the guitar, and he started singing and writing songs. In two short years, he started growing a following on social media platforms and released his first single, “The Idea Of Me,” in April of 2022. Since then, Aidan has released six additional singles, an album and his music has nearly 3 million streams. Aidan’s heartfelt lyrics and melodies are what make his music relatable to his fans.
Featured in country music YouTuber and critic Grady Smith’s “Best Music Under the Radar of 2023,” Canfield’s growing popularity has also led to his first CMAFest performance on the Hard Rock Stage and a feature on the Tidal Wave Festival in Atlantic City.
David Pugh is a singer-songwriter based in College Station, Texas. He started making music at 20 with the release of his first single, With You Gone. After putting out two EPs, he took a step back from performing and releasing music to focus on writing and finding his sound.
Now, after a few quiet years, he’s gearing up to release his debut full-length album on June 6th. So far, he’s shared three singles from the project—Alone, Ready, and Down the Line—which reflect a more focused and refined take on his alternative folk style.
The new music leans into honest songwriting with a simple, polished sound—something that feels true to where he is now, both personally and musically.
