For starters\, you can say a diverse recipe of hilarious personal stories\, a vast repertoire of songs through multiple decades and genres\, and one family’s journey together through life and music. The Bronx Wanderers pride themselves on being one of the only shows able to entertain grandparents\, their children\, and the grandchildren all in one sweeping musical tour de force. How do they accomplish this? Well\, the generation gap between the band members (30+ years) forces them to satisfy themselves musically\, which satisfies every audience they’ve encountered. The chemistry and energy they exert show after show proves they are still having the best time together on stage\, and you can tell they perform each show like it’s their first or last.\nThe show’s founder and patriarch\, Yo’ Vinny\, takes you on a musical journey through his illustrious career in the record business while working for Lifesong and Columbia Records since he was 17 years old. He’s worked with too many artists to mention\, but in the show\, “each song you hear tonight is someone I’ve either had the pleasure to produce\, sing backup for\, or worked with in the record industry during my 30-year career.” For instance\, you’ll hear songs by Dion and The Belmonts\, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons\, Billy Joel\, The Animals\, Queen\, and even an artist or two from today’s generation. As they say in the band and in countless reviews\, regardless of how old you are\, coming to the show\, everyone leaves feeling like they’re 20 years old.\nThe Bronx Wanderers have been going strong for over 16 years and have amassed many accolades such as touring the entire country headlining festivals\, PACs\, and casinos\, securing a permanent residency in Las Vegas from 2016 to the present\, filling in for Frankie Valli in Dubai\, being the first and only act to have opened for Tony Orlando and Danny Aiello\, backing Dean Martin’s daughter\, Deana\, for multiple shows\, performing the national anthem for the NY Rangers at Madison Square Garden and the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas\, and still managing to have time to volunteer and do charity benefits for the Win-Win Charity Organization\, St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital\, and multiple Veteran’s and Armed Forces charities and galas.\nHis two sons are no strangers to their levels of success. His younger son\, Nick\, had the opportunity to drum and perform for Frankie Valli with the Chicago Jersey Boys cast and was even offered a role in Blue Man Group (but his father and brother just couldn’t let him go.) The older son\, Vin A.\, the music director and producer for the group\, is an accomplished songwriter and arranger who recently got to open for Bon Jovi at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas in front of 18\,000 people with his original music.

They band a bit of a break while its members released solo albums but came together again in 2007 with the released of Paradise Lost\, a concept album based on Milton’s tale. Taking a break from mining the past\, the band looked to the future for the theme of their next album. The result was 2011’s Iconoclast\, which featured a darker tone and a cautionary story about machines taking over the world. After a global tour\, the band took an extended break. They began working on new material in 2014. Their ninth studio offering\, Underworld\, was announced in May of 2015. Though not conceptual\, it was loosely inspired by Dante’s Divine Comedy\, particularly its first section\, The Inferno. The album was released at the end of July. ~ Gary Hill\, Rovi URL:https://explorenewjersey.org/event/symphony-x/ LOCATION:Count Basie Center for the Arts\, 99 Monmouth Street\, Red Bank\, New Jersey\, 07701\, United States CATEGORIES:Concerts,Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://explorenewjersey.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/2025-09-29-Symphony-X-VOGEL-PREVIEW-m9MhZX.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250929T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250929T000000 DTSTAMP:20251214T204117 CREATED:20250808T184925Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250808T200857Z UID:51718-1759104000-1759104000@explorenewjersey.org SUMMARY:The Drew Forum presents: Mitt Romney DESCRIPTION:Mitt Romney is a statesman\, businessman\, and former Republican presidential nominee known for his bold leadership and independent voice.

It was in this era that she was also given the honor of Knight in the order of arts and letters from the French Republic.\nHer debut Mack Avenue award-winning release ‘Confessions’ (2019) secured her a spot at the podium amongst the greatest jazz singers of her generation. She then demonstrated her flare for conceptual cycles and keen arranging with her 2021 release ‘This Bitter Earth’ which not only gave a glimpse into her rock influences\, but automatically touched up upon some of the harder truths of being a woman. On her most recent 2023 album\, simply titled ‘Veronica Swift’\, she spreads her sonic wings even further exploring a “TransGenre” concept that includes more expansive range of influences than ever before: French and Italian opera\, European classical music\, industrial and punk rock\, funk\, and vaudeville.\nSwift’s recent collaboration with drummer/producer\, Brian Viglione (The Dresden Dolls) allowed for her creativity to flourish\, and as she continues her artistic journey\, she brings this multi-genre experience to you along with the music from her upcoming original project titled DAME. She is joined on stage by Kyle Reinhart (guitar)\, Alexis Angel (keyboards/guitar)\, and Jonny Heinz (bass).

He is best known as the original orchestra leader\, composer and trombonist of The Buena Vista Social Club. He has also served long stints in world class ensembles Estrellas de Areito and Afro-Cuban Allstars. His musical journey and history is brought into focus throughout the critically acclaimed 1999 documentary “Buena Vista Social Club” Ramos performed on the World Circuit recordings of The Buena Vista Social Club and Afro-Cuban Allstars and the solo albums of Ibrahim Ferrer\, Ruben Gonzales and Omara Portuondo. He was Gonzales’s musical director and has been touring extensively since 1997 with various Buena Vista Social Club projects. He was a prominent member and musical director of the renowned Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club\, which brought the music of the original Buena Vista Social Club back into international prominence during the incredibly successful ‘Adios’ Tour from 2014-2016. The Buena Vista Orchestra\, under the direction of Ramos and featuring key players from throughout the history of The Buena Vista Social Club\, continued the legacy of the legendary group in 2024 with an exciting new stage production and repertoire pulled from the greatest hits (many of which Ramos composed) and deep-dive cuts. The group embarked on a massive tour across the USA starting in September 2024\, spending 3 months on the road and playing for thousands of fans new and old. Their adventure culminated in the release of USA TOUR 2024 – 12 LIVE RECORDINGS on SSK Records\, the first time in decades the group’s music will be available on CD and vinyl. To date\, The Buena Vista Social Club and related projects have global sales that stand at over fifty million\, making it the biggest-selling Cuban music project in history.
