Timeless blues, rock and jazz by way of New Jersey.
They filtered onto the stage one by one, casually walking out to their places, center stage, piano, drums, guitar on stage right, and in the back a brass section. The audience was revved up. This journalist was unprepared for what was about to happen. I went into this performance a blank slate. I’d never heard Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes. I purposefully let them draw on my slate for the first time, live. And what a picture they painted.!
“With the Jukes, you’re out there every night leading this great rock n’ roll circus, giving it everything you’ve got” said Southside Johnny Lyon.
The New Jersey blues and rock and roll sound was beyond crowd-pleasing. I didn’t have to do any research to know this band has a cult following. The crowd shouted out song requests to Johnny. There was an interplay between the audience and the band, and it was hard to tell who was enjoying that exchange more, the band or the crowd.
The band consists of Southside Johnny as the frontman, Glenn Alexander on lead guitar, Chris Anderson on trumpet, bassist John Conte, saxophonist John Isley, pianist Jeff Kazee, Neal Pawley on trombone, and drummer Tom Seguso.

The Improbable Worlds of Glen Wexler
Alone cello player sits on top a solitary pinnacle towering above a demon’s hole. Above her head, ravens circle. They’re watching her choreograph her last rites with each draw of her bow. A giant guitar is hoisted out of a pit in a desert mine landscape. Miners oversee the guitar’s unearthing. A beautiful woman’s severed head rests on the wastelands. Her closed eyes and decorated face tell the story of her last breath. All these improbable realities are narratives created by celebrated photographer Glen Wexler.

Lili Haydn And Opium Moon: Kama Sutra Music
Opium Moon plays Kama Sutra music. Her violin weeps the notes of a love ballad. The bow is at times ecstatic and at others barely touching the strings. As she performs, we’re transported to another universe. There are overtones of Itzhak Perlman in her fingers, and Isaac Stern in her bow. Best of all, in her facial expressions you will find the plateaued emotions of her musical performance. Her whole body is into it, like a violent ballet. This is Lili Haydn with Opium Moon.
