SUMMARY:Mariachi Herencia de México
DESCRIPTION:¡Viva el mariachi! A new generation takes mariachi to whole new heights—two-time Latin Grammy®-nominee Mariachi Herencia de México pushes the boundaries of traditional mariachi music. Simultaneously honoring the past\, celebrating the present\, and creating the future of mariachi music\, Mariachi Herencia de México presents an electrifying and unforgettable night of Mexican music and culture.\nThe historic tradition of mariachi music has its roots of origin in cities such as Guadalajara and Mexico City. As the ever-evolving genre’s influence spread\, it reached Chicago and birthed Mariachi Herencia de México. The band has issued five chart-topping albums and has performed all across the North American continent paving the way for a new generation of mariachi musicians. Nuestra Herencia\, their 2017 debut album\, topped the Latin streaming charts and earned the band their first Latin Grammy®-nomination for Best Ranchero/Mariachi Album. 2018’s Herencia de la Tierra Mía and the series\, Esencia and Esencia\, Vol. 2 issued in 2019 and 2020\, respectively\, charted on all major streaming platforms and industry charts. In 2022\, their album\, Herederos\, received a 2023 Latin Grammy® nomination for Best Ranchero/Mariachi Album.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Tommy Emmanuel\, CGP
DESCRIPTION:Guitar icon Tommy Emmanuel\, CGP is no stranger to iconic stages from Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium to London’s Royal Festival Hall and Paris’ L’Olympia. The legendary entertainer has dazzled audiences across the world. But there is something truly magical about the Sydney Opera House\, and the magic of Emmanuel’s performances there were finally captured on his new album Live at the Sydney Opera House.\nEmmanuel has a Grammy® Award\, multiple ARIA Awards\, and countless accolades\, but nothing means more to Emmanuel than the three letters Chet Atkins designated at the end of his name: CGP. The title of Certified Guitar Player was the highest honor Atkins could bestow on another player—a signifier that the recipient had not only mastered the instrument but taken it to new vistas and become a guiding light for the next generation of pickers. Like Emmanuel\, Atkins had never gone to a university\, and the CGP was his version of a PhD or a Doctorate of the guitar. He gave the honor to Emmanuel and only five other handpicked players.\nAs a songwriter and a performer\, Emmanuel is a melting pot of influences across genres\, from pop to bluegrass and jazz to rock n’ roll. To him\, music is rhythm and emotion\, all other distinctions are meaningless. Anyone who has seen him play will tell you\, the vocalist is there\, as is the drummer\, the bass player\, and the rhythm and lead guitarists. In a way that must often be seen to be believed\, Emmanuel plays all the parts of a full band simultaneously\, his fingers dancing around the fretboard with a dexterity and speed that would seem impossible if you weren’t witnessing it.

SUMMARY:Herbie Hancock: 2025 Fall Tour
DESCRIPTION:Now in the seventh decade of his professional life\, Herbie Hancock remains where he has always been: at the forefront of world culture\, technology\, business and music. Herbie Hancock has been an integral part of every popular music movement since the 1960’s. As a member of the Miles Davis Quintet that pioneered a groundbreaking sound in jazz\, he also developed new approaches on his own recordings\, followed by his work in the 70s — with record-breaking albums such as “Headhunters” — that combined electric jazz with funk and rock in an innovative style that continues to influence contemporary music. “Rockit” and “Future Shock” marked Hancock’s foray into electronic dance sounds; during the same period he also continued to work in an acoustic setting with V.S.O.P. The lineup for the bergenPAC performance will feature:\nHerbie Hancock on keys\nTerrence Blanchard on trump\nJames Genus on bass\nLionel Loueke on guitar and vocals\nJaylen Petinaud on drums

SUMMARY:Lawrence: The Family Business Tour Pt. 2
DESCRIPTION:As NPR writes\, “siblings Clyde and Gracie Lawrence are not your typical pair.” Clyde Lawrence and Gracie Lawrence have been writing songs and listening to countless Stevie Wonder\, Randy Newman\, and Aretha Franklin records in their family’s New York City apartment since they were little kids. After years of playing together\, they officially created Lawrence\, an eight-piece soul-pop band comprised of musician friends from childhood and college. The band has since gained a devoted following for its high-energy\, keyboard-driven sound\, which features tight\, energetic horns and explosive lead vocals.\nIn 2024\, Lawrence entered a new era with the release of their fourth studio album\, Family Business. The album’s opening track\, “Whatcha Want”\, broke into the Top 40 on the US Pop Chart\, and Lawrence recently performed it on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon\, The Kelly Clarkson Show\, Today With Hoda & Jenna\, and CBS Saturday Morning. The album was accompanied by their biggest headline tour yet across Europe and North America\, which included iconic sold-out shows at venues like Radio City Music Hall in New York City\, The Wiltern in Los Angeles\, two nights at the Forum in London\, and the North Sea Jazz Festival in Rotterdam.\nLive shows and touring continue to be key components of the group’s success. In 2025\, Lawrence will be back on the road\, taking The Family Business Tour (Part 2) to Australia for the first time\, as well as returning to Europe\, the UK\, and the US for another round of their headline shows. In previous years\, Lawrence opened for The Rolling Stones and the Jonas Brothers. They’ve also toured with acts such as Lake Street Dive\, Vulfpeck\, Jon Bellion\, Jacob Collier\, Soulive\, O.A.R.\, and Bernhoft\, and appeared at major festivals including Coachella\, Bonnaroo\, Outside Lands\, Firefly\, Okeechobee\, Hangout\, and Summerfest. The band released a docuseries from their adventures on the road during their Hotel TV Tour\, which is available on YouTube. The series concluded with an episode dedicated to the retirement of their beloved touring van—affectionately named “Vandy Newman”—marking the shift into the next chapter of their life as a touring band.\nIn July 2021\, Lawrence released their album\, Hotel TV\, and became the first band to release music under Beautiful Mind Records\, the label of Grammy-winning producer/songwriter/artist Jon Bellion\, who co-produced and co-wrote the songs on the album. The tracks on Hotel TV have garnered tens of millions of streams across all platforms and have had multiple viral moments on TikTok and Instagram.\nThe album’s lead single\, “Don’t Lose Sight”\, was featured in an international Microsoft commercial\, which propelled it into the Top 20 on the USA Shazam Pop Charts and also hit #33 on Top 40. The band performed “Don’t Lose Sight” on Jimmy Kimmel Live\, did a performance of it for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert\, and closed both of their sets at Coachella with it\, with the entire audience singing along. The band also played the single “23” from the Family Business album live during their set at Jingle Ball in 2023.\nIn addition to creating music\, the band (particularly Clyde Lawrence and Jordan Cohen) have been outspoken advocates for artists and the challenges they face in the live music industry\, speaking transparently in fan Q+A’s about industry dynamics\, writing an op-ed in The New York Times\, and even testifying in front of the U.S. Senate. Lawrence and Cohen continue to spread the word about the challenges in the live event promotion and ticketing space in conversations with outlets like NBC News\, Vice News\, Politico\, and more.\nOutside of the band\, Gracie Lawrence is an accomplished actress. In 2024\, she appeared as a series regular in the third season of Mindy Kaling and Justin Noble’s The Sex Lives of College Girls on Max\, playing the character of Kacey. Her acting career continues in 2025 with an exciting return to Broadway\, starring opposite Tony winner Jonathan Groff in Alex Timbers’ JUST IN TIME\, a new musical that tells the story of legendary singer Bobby Darin.\nHer other television acting credits include Billions\, a series regular role on One Dollar (formerly on CBS All Access)\, as well as roles in films like Amy Poehler’s Moxie on Netflix\, Rhys Ernst’s Adam\, and the Disney+ comedy Noelle.\nMeanwhile\, Clyde has contributed songs and full instrumental scores to a number of major films and TV shows (often in collaboration with bandmate Jordan Cohen or frequent collaborator Cody Fitzgerald)\, including Hulu’s Animaniacs\, Disney’s Noelle\, HBO’s The Jinx\, and Amazon’s Landline\, among many others.\nLastly\, a music production team called The Diner\, consisting of Clyde\, Jordan\, and Jonny Koh\, have written and produced songs for many artists beyond Lawrence\, including Jonas Brothers\, Shawn Mendes\, Tori Kelly\, Jon Bellion\, Alec Benjamin\, Trousdale\, and others.

SUMMARY:Andy Bell of Erasure: Ten Crowns Tour
DESCRIPTION:When you reach a milestone in your life\, what’s the best way to mark it? By embracing it\, glorying in it – crowning it\, in fact – with an album of euphoric songs produced and polished in Nashville\, of course!\nThe name of Andy Bell’s third solo album\, Ten Crowns – like its cover art\, featuring his head on a glistening gold coin – is making Andy smile today: “It sounds like a pub!”\, he jokes. But behind that title lies ten songs of dazzling\, joyous pop\, inspired by the dancefloor and gospel\, completed in the year he turned 60.\nThe name also refers to the tarot\, he says: “The ten crowns on the tree of life\, which is a very powerful card to have. And I’d just got my crowns on my teeth done in Miami when I was trying to think about a title!”\, he laughs.\nTen Crowns marks a properly majestic moment in Andy Bell’s forty-year career. His joy about what that holds\, and where it can go\, clearly excites him. “It’s my third sort of solo record [following 2005’s Electric Blue and 2010’s Non-Stop] and in Erasure\, our third album was our most successful out of all that we’ve done\, so maybe I’m taking that spirit with me!”\nTravelling into new dimensions and possibilities with gospel in the heart and dancing in the soul clearly suits him. Ten Crowns is Andy Bell imperial\, gleaming\, ready for his coronation.

SUMMARY:Trivium: Ascend Above The Ashes Tour…
DESCRIPTION:Driving guitar solos and throbbing rhythms make up the heavy metal produced by Orlando-based metalcore outfit Trivium.

Along with a discography of six full-length records and a healthy U.S. tour history\, Trivium has also handled concerts throughout Europe\, Japan and Australia.\nFor the 2006 collection “The Crusade\,” Trivium frontman Matt Heafy took a slight departure from his metalcore scream to deliver more traditional singing vocals that some compared to Metallica. That album debuted at No. 25 on The Billboard 200\, and Heafy went back to his signature scream for the follow-up\, 2008’s “Shogun\,” and subsequent releases.

SUMMARY:Crumbs from the Table of Joy
DESCRIPTION:Crossroads Theatre Company Brings Lynn Nottage’s “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” Back to the Stage in New Brunswick \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe celebrated Crossroads Theatre Company in New Brunswick is once again lighting up the stage\, this time with a heartfelt revival of Lynn Nottage’s “Crumbs from the Table of Joy.” This deeply moving family drama\, penned by one of America’s most acclaimed contemporary playwrights\, continues its run through November 23\, offering audiences a powerful and poetic exploration of race\, identity\, loss\, and hope in postwar America. \n\n\n\nSet in the 1950s\, “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” follows the Crump family as they navigate a rapidly changing world following the death of their matriarch. When the family relocates from Florida to Brooklyn\, patriarch Godfrey Crump seeks solace and direction through religion — while his teenage daughters\, Ernestine and Ermina\, struggle to find their place amid the shifting tides of culture and self-discovery. The arrival of their free-spirited Aunt Lily adds both humor and chaos\, pushing the family to confront the tension between faith and freedom\, tradition and transformation. \n\n\n\nLynn Nottage\, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner\, is known for crafting stories that give voice to the overlooked and the resilient. “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” captures her signature blend of emotional depth and lyrical storytelling\, weaving together themes of migration\, gender\, and social awakening through the lens of a family searching for meaning in the midst of turmoil. \n\n\n\nCrossroads Theatre Company\, based in the heart of New Brunswick’s vibrant arts district\, is the perfect stage for this revival. Founded in 1978\, Crossroads has built a national reputation for championing African American voices and staging works that challenge\, uplift\, and inspire. Their production of “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” continues that legacy — blending meticulous direction\, standout performances\, and immersive staging to bring Nottage’s world to life with authenticity and heart. \n\n\n\nAudiences can expect an experience that feels both timeless and urgently relevant. The play’s exploration of belonging\, resilience\, and the search for joy resonates powerfully today\, inviting theatergoers to reflect on how far we’ve come — and how far we still have to go. The production’s design captures the era’s emotional and visual contrasts\, from the simplicity of a 1950s Brooklyn apartment to the vivid imaginings that unfold in Ernestine’s mind as she dreams of a better\, freer future. \n\n\n\nFor those looking to experience thought-provoking live theatre this fall\, Crossroads’ latest production offers a perfect opportunity. The company’s intimate venue creates a uniquely personal connection between audience and performance\, allowing every moment — from whispered conversations to emotional crescendos — to feel immediate and real. \n\n\n\nTickets for “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” are now available\, with performances continuing through November 23 at Crossroads Theatre Company in New Brunswick. Whether you’re a longtime theater lover or simply looking for a meaningful evening out\, this revival delivers storytelling that is both soul-stirring and beautifully human. \n\n\n\nTo explore more live performances and theatre events happening across New Jersey\, visit Explore New Jersey’s theatre section. The state’s rich performing arts scene continues to thrive — and productions like this one remind us why New Jersey remains one of the most dynamic places for live theatre on the East Coast.
