New Wave is making a stop at State Theatre New Jersey with Howard Jones, Haircut One Hundred, and Richard Blade! Hear hits from Howard Jones like “No One is to Blame,” “What is Love?,” “New Song,” and “Things Can Only Get Better.” Joining Jones is Haircut One Hundred, who burned bright in the early ’80s with songs like “Fantastic Day” and “Love Plus One,” and DJ Richard Blade (KROQ, Los Angeles; Video One; MV3; VideoBeat).
Electronic music pioneer Howard Jones has been a constant presence on the international touring scene for the past four decades, playing live in a number of different configurations, including intimate solo shows and dates with his full high-tech band set-up. He first burst upon the contemporary music scene with his very English songwriting and pioneering synthesizers in 1983’s “New Song.” His first two albums, Human’s Lib and Dream Into Action, were worldwide hits. Human’s Lib reached #1 in 1984 in the UK and featured the hits “New Song” and “What Is Love?” In 1985, Jones released the follow-up, Dream Into Action, which quickly became a Top 10 Platinum album in the U.S. and featured the hits “Things Can Only Get Better,” “Life In One Day,” “No One Is To Blame,” and “Like To Get To Know You Well.”
Howard Jones has sold upwards of 10 million albums worldwide and continues to make new music and tour the world. He has performed on NBC’s top-rated morning and nighttime shows, respectively, Today and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. His ubiquitous hits can be heard in such high-profile TV series and films as Stranger Things, Breaking Bad, Watchmen, The Carrie Diaries, Superstore, and Bumblebee. His most recent album is Dialogue, which was released in September 2022. Dialogue is the third album in a trilogy of electronic releases from Jones with the multi-media project Engage and the studio album Transform.
Of all pop’s shining, fiery comets, Haircut One Hundred burned brightly, gave off heat, changed the landscape, and then, as fast as they appeared, were gone, leaving many happy memories.
For 18 months or so in the early 1980s, Haircut did their thing. They were led by irrepressible songsmith, lead vocalist, and rhythm guitarist Nick Heyward with South London’s Stanley Clarke, Les Nemes, on the bass. Adding Graham Jones, on lead guitar, and then, Memphis-born Blair Cunningham—a man who had lived several lifetimes by the age of 24—on drums, the group charmed both press and public with their oblique-yet-everyman lyrics, brisk funk, and sunshine pop. Who can forget songs as joyous and memorable as “Fantastic Day,” “Love Plus One,” and “Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl),” and the accompanying album, the mighty, flirty, and flighty Pelican West. Pelican West was already platinum-certified in the UK only three months after release. The album spent 11 consecutive weeks in the British Top 10 and twice reached No. 2. It also charted in the U.S., Australia, and beyond.
By 1983, it was all over, and the band stepped out separately. Aside from Nick Heyward’s tremendously well-regarded solo career (nine acclaimed albums to date, including the Geoff Emerick-produced masterpiece North of a Miracle), Jones went on to co-found underground scenesters Boys Wonder; Nemes toured with 80s’ icon Rick Astley; and Cunningham drummed with a veritable who’s who of pop including Paul McCartney.
To celebrate the 40th Anniversary release of Pelican West, Haircut One Hundred reunited in May 2023 for an emotionally charged, hit-laden sold-out show at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire. A UK and U.S. tour followed, as well as a prestigious Glastonbury appearance. Suddenly, as if from nowhere, the band were recording again: a new single appeared, “The Unloving Plum,” which became BBC Radio 2’s Record Of The Week. The novelty of reforming soon gave way to reality. “We thought the reunion show would be emotional, but it’s been getting more emotional as we go along,” Nick said in 2024. “It’s like a dynamo, like a bike—it’s picking up speed and energy as it goes.” And now, it’s a new chapter for the group—a brand-new album is nearly finished, and the group are keen to share this material, as fresh as a daisy.

“When you hear something that makes you feel alive, that reminds you just how precious and beautiful this world can be, there’s nothing else quite like it,” says Stephen Day. “It’s like striking gold.”
Day should know. Gold Mine, the Georgia native’s latest full-length album, is a dazzling, genre-blending triumph, one that proudly wears its heart on its sleeve as it tips its cap to everything from Frank Sinatra and Glen Campbell to John Mayer and Stevie Wonder. Written and recorded in Day’s adopted hometown of Nashville, the collection pairs vintage melodic sensibilities with a modern sonic palette to forge a warm, lush sound that’s equal parts neo-soul and classic country. Hot on the album’s heels, Day is back with an upcoming three-track companion EP that picks up where the original record left off.
The son of a pastor and a nurse practitioner, Day first discovered the power of music in church, where he was surrounded by singers and instruments every Sunday morning. At 18, he moved to Nashville, and the next year, he released his breakout debut EP, Undergrad Romance and the Moses in Me. Since then, Day has amassed more than 140 million streams, landed a record deal with Riser House, earned a sync placement in the Will Ferrell comedy Strays, and toured with the likes of Stephen Sanchez, Teddy Swims, Allen Stone, Lawrence, and Ben Rector.

Musical chemistry is a rare, intangible thing. But for Andy Platts and Shawn Lee, the creative force behind Young Gun Silver Fox the unmalleable, unspoken connection that gives their work such a unique and distinctive sound was apparent from their first experiences in a studio together.
Alongside their now decade plus long tenure as Young Gun Silver Fox where they have built up a growing fanbase which includes the likes of Hans Zimmer, Jeff Lynne, and The Black Pumas to name a few , both have already received plaudits for their individual creative excursions. American born, UK based musician Shawn Lee through his own extensive catalogue of recordings with the likes of Shawn Lee’s Ping Pong Orchestra and his well-received solo albums, as well as a go to award winning producer and multi-instrumentalist for the likes of James Morrison and Joel Culpepper, and more recently musical director and drummer for the legendary Asha Puthli in Europe, USA & Australia .
Meanwhile the multi-talented Andy Platts is the chief songwriter and leader of much loved Brit-soul sensations Mamas Gun. He’s also clocked up a plethora of song writing collaborations with legends such as Rod Temperton and Brian Jackson, as well as writing songs for the forthcoming album of rising UK soul star MT Jones for this forthcoming debut album and they both co wrote the title track of the latest Take That album ‘This Life’ which went to number 1 in the UK charts.
Of their initial hook up Shawn explains that “It was about 2006 when we came across each other on Myspace and I checked out Andy and saw that he knew a couple of the same people, and I was impressed with his talents so I sent him a message saying we should hook up and do something, and he never got back to me of course! But maybe it was around 2009 when we first spoke.”
Taking their name from Andy’s standing as youngest band member and Shawn’s resplendent silver locks, and sensing they were kindred musical spirits, the duo set about crafting their 2015 debut West End Coast, bonding over a shared love of the smooth sounds of ’70s pop-soul and artist’s such as Ned Doheny, Hall & Oates, Steely Dan and the breezy, west coast stylings that had been in Shawn’s musical DNA since his youth. “I remember at one point thinking Steely Dan was the ultimate group because they had hit singles and were on the radio and I’m like ‘man they’re accessible and they’re in the mainstream but their music is so sophisticated and so musical and they have the best playing and the best arrangements.’ I just thought if you could do that then you’ve won, that’s the ultimate thing musically for me that if I could do something like that, that had all those qualities but was still accessible then you’re killing it. Music like that and bands like that are rare, it’s a really special thing. And there’s something about Young Gun Silver Fox that’s winning on those two fronts.”
The release of their 2015 debut album West End Coast was timely, riding in at the beginning of an overdue reappraisal of the previously maligned world of music that became (unfairly) grouped under the then fashionable ‘Yacht Rock’ tag, and Young Gun Silver Fox came straight out the box with a perfectly curated record that fused all the best components of mid ’70s to early ’80s contemporary pop and soul. Much to their own surprise, the band immediately found its audience. “We were surprised,” explains Andy, “we were making it for us and we thought we’d try and put it out and it would be great to even play it live but we had no idea that it would find the audience that we hoped it might find, and we got really lucky in places like Holland where it really took off and we were playing big venues.”
If West End Coast lit a musical spark then follow up AM Waves, released in 2018 fanned the flames and helped turn Young Gun Silver Fox into a self-made success story, showing a growing synergy between the two musicians that shone through on tunes like the deep, funky pop of ‘Caroline’, ‘Lenny’s deceptively poignant balladry and the beachside disco of ‘Kingston Boogie’. “After the first album was done it was like ‘yeah, this really works and this feels good’ and we’d only just scratched the surface of it” says Andy. “So by the time we hit AM Waves we were really confidently digging in and chomping at the bit really.”
Continuing to build on the reputation forged from their recorded output, Shawn and Andy followed up with stellar live shows and a touring schedule that took them round the world, finding fans in the many far flung corners of the world and securing the endorsement of musical legends. “I was surprised to discover how many Brazilian musicians were fans when I was in Rio doing some recording,” enthuses Shawn, “and I was very pleased to hear that Jeff Lynne from ELO was a big fan.”
2020’s Canyons cemented the band as a permanent fixture in people’s hearts and minds and elevated them to the status afforded on their own musical heroes, nailing the tricky skill of making deceptively layered and richly arranged music sound effortless. Whether through the easy rolling groove of opener ‘Kids’, euphoric horn blasts of ‘Dream Woman’ or masterful song writing of closing piano ballad ‘All This Love’, this was band reveling in reaching new heights.
The pandemic induced lockdown provided time for the duo to reflect but not to rest on their laurels, and October 2022 saw the band release their fourth work to date, the aptly titled Ticket To Shangri La, a culmination of everything the band do best, and a record that transports you to musical paradise the second the piano stabs of opener ‘Still Got It Goin’ On’ kick in and the one-two sucker punch of second track (and the albums lead single) ‘West Side Jet’ lifts you off your feet with its four to the floor rhythm and joy-inducing chorus.
The last albums genesis came from the sharing of songs and recordings online, with each member embellishing the other’s tunes, whether that was Andy adding melodies and lyrics or Shawn laying down extra instrumentation. Says Andy of the process; “When Shawn sends me stuff all the musical variables are done so it’s out of my hands and that’s great but it’s horrible as well, because I get to see Shawn’s mind working and he’s given me his stuff but I might think ‘I wouldn’t put that chord there I’d do that’ and I think ‘oh fuck, how do I work with this!’ I really enjoy that because it keeps you on your toes and you don’t rest on your laurels, you gotta bring your ‘A’ game and scrub up!” And although Shawn’s desire was to up the groove factor on this album, as always it comes down to choosing the absolute best songs. “I knew it was gonna be coming down to what the best songs are, I do think it’s an album of bangers though, the whole first five or six songs hit you and there hasn’t been another one of our records like that, it’s strong man.”
Three years later the band are preparing to release their fifth album ‘Pleasure’, after an insanely busy year completing their largest US tour to date in 2024 as well as touring Europe, including supporting The Black Pumas both in the US & UK, who personally asked for them to support them, as they are such big fans of the band.
‘Pleasure’ took on a different and more personable recording process, after four albums with both musicians laying down ideas in their own studios and sending files back and across via email. Shawn in London and Andy in Norfolk, this album Shawn travelled to Andy’s studio The Prairie for four days in December 2024 and back again in January 2025. The duo commenced furiously writing & recording ideas from a completely blank slate. Over half of the album’s 10 songs were birthed from these in-person sessions. This was a real game changer and evolution of the game for Andy and Shawn.
The only additional musicians on the album are the horn players. Nichol Thomson trombone & arrangements, Tom Walsh on trumpet & Graeme Blevins on sax and flute. The rest is handled by Andy and Shawn. Andy engineered these sessions and the album was later mixed & finished at Shawn’s London studio with Pierre Duplan, helping engineer and mix it.
“At this point YGSF are continuing to build on their back catalogue and we are constantly thinking about using our collective strengths to evolve”, explains Andy.
What happens next is open to fate, but one certainty is that Andy and Shawn will continue to come up with the goods. “The ‘West Coast’ vibe was really a jumping off point initially,” says Andy. “The more music we make, the more it really is all about what Shawn & I do together naturally, and so that’s evolving the MO of the whole project all the time in a really natural way.”

Formed in 1988 by Lo Faber, Aaron Maxwell, Dan Pifer, Jon Bevo, and Tom Osander, God Street Wine played a prominent role in the early jam band scene alongside fellow New Yorkers Blues Traveler and Spin Doctors. Veterans of the HORDE Tour as well as runs with The Allman Brothers, Bruce Hornsby and The Black Crowes, they also released 5 albums and performed more than 1,000 shows across the United States in their first decade together.
In 1999 the band split up after playing a three night farewell engagement at the Wetlands Preserve in NYC. Selected performances from these final shows were compiled into the posthumous live album “Good To the Last Drop”.
After almost a decade apart, GSW reunited privately in 2009 to honor the passing of an old friend and a year later played four concerts in NYC benefiting the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Infrequent but memorable gatherings continued at Bob Weir’s TRI Studios, Sweetwater Music Hall, rambles with Phil Lesh at Terrapin Crossroads and Jam Cruise. In 2013 they released a 25th anniversary box set retrospective and the documentary film All The Way To Here. Several years later the band ‑ now spread out across the globe in New York, New Orleans and Berlin ‑ started collaborating on new studio tracks which led to eight new single releases in 2017-18 and the full length album This Fine Town in 2019.
After eight shows in summer 2019, other projects and commitments brought the band to another hiatus – a break that ended up longer than expected due to the Covid pandemic. After four years apart, GSW got together again in 2023 with two New York area shows to benefit MS4MS (Mission Stadiums for Multiple Sclerosis).
2024 brought more activity for GSW! On top of marking the 30th anniversary of the band’s 1st major label release, $1.99 Romances, and digitally releasing the long-lost Hot Sweet & Juicy, the band is also releasing 3 albums from their catalog (Bag, $1.99 Romances, Hot Sweet & Juicy) on vinyl for the first time. This will all culminate with the original fivesome performing together again with four New York area shows!

Socratic is an American rock band from Cranford and Linden, New Jersey, known for their unique blend of emo, indie rock, and pop punk. The band rose to prominence in the mid-2000s, recognized for their emotionally charged lyrics, piano-driven arrangements, and melodic instrumentation.
Their debut full-length album on Drive-Thru Records, Lunch for the Sky (2005), became a standout in the emo-pop scene. The record drew comparisons to artists like The Early November and The New Amsterdams, and was famously described by Alternative Press as “Jimmy Eat World overdosed on Meat Loaf.”

JOHNNY MULLENAX – Johnny Mullenax, a Tulsa native, grew up in a musical family. He started playing the guitar at age 5. In his teens, he followed his family to the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas. In typical Johnny fashion, he showed up with just a guitar and ended up sleeping in a stand-up bass case. At 18, he used a friend’s ID to get into a club where he was part of a live hip hop band backing rappers. According to Johnny, “Life is too short to play one style of music, and if you have an opportunity to try something different then you should give it a shot.”
Claiming wide-ranging influences from AC/DC and The Ramones to John Coltrane and Parliament, Johnny calls his genre-bending sound a funky country bluegrass good time!
Before COVID, Johnny went out on the road with fellow Okie TJ McFarland (Tennessee Jet)and started connecting to a network of other touring musicians. He always wanted to start his own project, and after playing as a sideman for seven years with several bands, he finally took that leap.

Whether Billy Hector is teasing you with his sultry slide work, picking through delta blues or flat-out cranking it up and crunching out the electric blues/rock on his beloved vintage Fender Stratocaster, his music reflects the true soul and origins of the blues; always passionate, engaging and dedicated to making the audience move and sweat. Having honed his chops and style through three decades of performances, Hector is critically recognized as one of the hottest and most interesting guitarist/songwriters on the original circuit and has even been called “A New Jersey state treasure” by music writers.
Early in his career, Billy Hector identified himself as a deeply grounded and versatile player drawing his influences from important predecessors including T-Bone Walker, Freddie King, Jimi Hendrix, Roy Buchanan and a host of others across musical style and genre. But, as with all truly great musicians, recognizable influences are interesting only insofar as they provide a departure point for the musician’s spirit. It falls on the musician to shape his predecessor’s ideas into music that does not simply replicate but engagingly adds to the whole. Most can only aspire to this level of creation; Billy Hector generates it in spades, and it happens every night.
In the late 70s, Hector’s first stop was as the guitarist for The Shots, a horn-driven R&B group that took over the house band role from Southside Johnny and The Asbury Jukes at the renowned Stone Pony. He moved on as lead guitarist for Hot Romance, a band based at the infamous Mrs. Jay’s biker bar in Asbury Park that also began receiving New York City radio airplay for its original songs.
In the mid-80’s, drawn back to earlier musical roots, Billy Hector formed the five-piece blues/rock band The Fairlanes and, co-wrote and released three independent albums on the Blue Jersey label.
By early 1993, Hector regrouped as a power trio and renamed his band The Billy Hector Band. The band’s present lineup is guitars/lead vocals Billy Hector, drummer Sim Cain and bassist Tim Tindall. The Billy Hector Band also performs acoustic blues in multiple personnel configurations.
A prolific songwriter/composer, Billy Hector has fourteen albums to his credit, most on the independent Ghetto Surf label. And with over thirty-five years of performing under his belt, Billy Hector is recognized as one of the hottest guitarists and songwriters playing the original circuit and serves up what more than one reviewer has called “one of the best shows you’ll ever see.”

An Evening with COOL COOL COOL – Cool Cool Cool blends the best of Funk, House, and R&B to create a sound that is truly unique. With dynamic female-led vocals, a tight horn section, swirling synths, and a rhythm section that lays down a wicked groove, this band knows how to deliver an electrifying performance. When you see Cool Cool Cool in person, you’ll be swept up by the energy of their music and unforgettable live show.
After spending more than a decade traveling the world together with the touring act Turkuaz, the members of Cool Cool Cool decided to team up and form their own band in 2022. Their shared experiences, from playing dive bars to international festival stages, helped them develop a close bond that goes far beyond music. In Cool Cool Cool, this bond translates into a powerful synergy that allows each band member to showcase their individual talents, creativity, and passion.
Cool Cool Cool toured the U.S. in 2024 both as a headlining act, as well as the supporting band for Talking Heads members Jerry Harrison and Adrian Belew (David Bowie, King Crimson) on their “Remain In Light” tour.
