As unbelievable as it may sound, the 13 FREE Legacy Concerts on the Beach in Somers Point will feature national and international headliners almost every Friday night along with the very best rock ‘n’ roll Tribute and Party Dance bands.

Five time Grammy award winner Tom Hambridge will celebrate his recent Grammy win with Buddy Guy on opening night of the series June 12; Big Easy award winners and international stars, Bonerama follow on June 19 and we are waiting to announce a guest star headliner to join Dead Zep on July 10.

In the heart of the summer three of the greatest living legends of rock ‘n’ roll music will perform on consecutive Fridays. The original Eddie and the Cruisers million selling artists, John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band on the 17th of July; Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award artist and founder of the Meters from New Orleans, George Porter, Jr will bring the funky dance music on the 22nd; and by popular demand, the most famous multimillion selling rockstar alive, who ever played Tony Marts, Mitch Ryder, will return on July 31.

The good times roll right into August with the Weeklings led by Glen Burtnik, who has toured the world with Styx, the Electric Light Orchestra and Max Weinberg from Springsteen’s E Street Band. The Weekings are an All-Star band playing a tribute to the Beatles and their own Beatlesque, award winning music.

The legacy of the Allman Brothers lives with the son and daughter of the famous Butch Trucks from the Allman Brothers Band performing intense Americana and classic rock jams on 14 August.

On August 21 Anthony Krizan, from the Spin Doctors will start with the Billy Walton Band. Anthony has played with the greatest in rock ‘n’ roll stars including Jimi Hendrix’s famous drummer, Mitch Mitchell and many other great rock stars.

Look for another famous recording artist to be announced for August 28 and strap in and get ready to cruise into the finale of the summer season with the great E Street Shuffle and our own phenomenal “The Girls Can’t Help It“ Tribute to the greatest female vocalist in rock ‘n’ roll history.

It’s time to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day! At The Circle Liquor Store that means a tremendous selection of Irish red ales, Murphy’s Stout to go with the Guiness family and all of the Irish creams that everyone wants to enjoy, including Caroline’s, Emmett’s, Ryan’s and the number one Irish cream liquor, Bailey’s.

With the biggest selection of Irish whiskeys and single barrel whiskeys and bourbons in South Jersey, Circle Liquor Store is the place to enjoy getting ready to Let the Good Times Roll.

They are open seven days a week from 9 AM to 10 PM so there’s plenty of time to enjoy probably the best independent liquor store in the world, certainly the best in New Jersey!

On the culinary side, we will visit with the famous Louisiana Chef Michael Arnone, who is preparing for his Crawfish Festival on May 29, 30 and 31st at the Sussex County Fairgrounds and also introducing to all of our friends and the Tony Mart family his Jambalaya Rice Mix.

You can start to prepare for the entire festival season from French Quarter Fest to New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, Michael Arnone‘s Crawfish Festival and Tony Mart’s Mardi Gras on the Boardwalk in Atlantic City by tasting the flavor of jambalaya with a true Louisiana touch. Just go to www.Crawfishfest.com.

Also on the show this week we will introduce Bill Jolly from the Original Teddy Pendergrass Band as we announced the performance of Love TKO-The official Teddy Pendergrass Tribute on September 2, 2026 as a soulful finale to the Mardi Gras on the Boardwalk season.

We are overjoyed to celebrate Philly’s contribution to the world of R&B and soul, the Sound of Philadelphia, which became famous all over the world with groups like Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes and their famous solo artist, Teddy Pendergrass. We will interview one of those original TSOP musicians from Teddy’s band, Bill Jolly, accomplished R&B, Soul producer and performer who will perform with “TKO Love” the Original Teddy Pendergrass Tribute on the Boardwalk Wednesday, September 2nd.

To make it even more fun, we will be joined by Shirley Mae “Sugar” Owens, the publisher of highly respected Big City Rhythm and Blues Magazine, who is acquiring the “Tucson Glow” herself as she stays in the Oro Valley and enjoys all of the magic that makes Tucson the “Desperado Town” of choice for laid-back winter lifestyle. That’s what the Eagles were saying with our famous Daughter of Rock ‘n Roll, Linda Ronstadt.

It’s all so exciting and so much fun. We invite you to join us on the radio show this week and please have a good time, get ready for St. Patrick’s Day as the excitement of the spring season blossoms into unbelievable summertime fun and free concerts!
