Tonight July 3 we will be at the site of the infamous rock ‘n’ roll joint that hung over the bay with pilings and floorboards so classic, you could see through them and feel the water and hear the lapping of the bay underneath!

That was Bayshores but now it’s The Point, one of the finest Tiki Bars and gorgeous, contemporary tropical nightclubs in the state!

Tony Mart will be rocking The Point tonight with our own Jersey Shore Rock and Soul Guitar Hero, Billy Walton, performing with his band starting at 6 o’clock. We will be there and we want everyone to share the excitement and the joy of the weekend that continues at the Legacy Concerts on the Beach in Somers Point on the Friday night Fourth of July holiday.

On Friday, July 11th the “Boss will meet The Jukes” when Concerts on the Beach in Somers Point presents Glenn Alexander & Shadowland starring most of the Asbury Jukes. The other headliner on this show will be one of the best Springsteen tribute bands in three states, E Street Shuffle, featuring the gifted and talented Loughlin Brothers.

This will be a world class Jersey Shore Musical Tribute!

On Monday afternoon July 21, 2025 at the beautiful Point Tiki Bar and tropical nightclub, 998 Bay Avenue on the historic Somers Point Bayfront just blocks south of the beach, Tony Marts will headline the Jersey Gumbo Festival with a free concert starring four of the greatest guitarists from four different places.

Musical director and violin virtuoso Heather “Lil’ Mama” Hardy, who has played everywhere from Greenwich Village to the Tucson Symphony, this five hour free concert music festival will feature the Jersey Shore’s rock and soul guitar hero Billy Walton, the internationally renowned New York guitar giant Papa Chubby, Somers Point’s own emerging blues rock guitar monster, Denny Shiffler from Twisted Livin’ Band and Hiro Suzuki as part of Heather’s ensemble.

But that’s not all, we will have the New Orleans traditional music and the great American songbook performed so delicately and soulfully by the incredible Heather Hardy.

To expand the Louisiana musical experience, Heather will have the Cajun/Zydeco squeezebox so you’ll hear the sound of guitars, fiddles and the squeezebox!

The Gumbo tasting starts at 3pm.

The free concerts begin at 3:30pm and roll all the way up to 10:45pm with lots of funky blues rock and soul from the four guitarists jamming away in the finale jam on a warm night where the bay will be lapping up right next to the stage.

This is the essence of the Jersey Shore experience in July.

Inspired by Bruce Springsteen to record his new Album, Sound of Waves, John Cafferty & Beaver Brown will continue the “Eddie and The Cruisers” legacy with a performance on the beach in Somers Point Friday August 1st.

Celebrate the legacy on the historic Bayfront where rock n’ roll history was made!

This is how Tony Mart Presents a phenomenon of free concerts unmatched anywhere on the East Coast!!

Circle Liquor Store is not only the coolest place but the most hospitable place to get all of the luscious libations we want to enjoy throughout the summer. We are featuring our Bogle Juggernaut wines, including an excellent California central coast Chardonnay and a light drinkable Russian River Pinot Noir from Juggernaut at the Tony Mart Care‘s Beverage Garden located next to the stage at Kennedy Plaza where Mardi Gras on the Boardwalk will be produced 7 PM Wednesdays for the next 10 weeks.

It’s great to have the light seltzers and cocktails in the can but a beautiful Prosecco and Aperol Spritzer will make you feel like you’re living La Dolce Vita in Rome!

Circle has an immense selection of the finest southern French rosé wines and beautiful white wines, including Lovelock Sauvignon Blanc we were enjoying on the Boardwalk last night.

Circle Liquor Store is not only the finest independently owned liquor store in the state of New Jersey, but it is a place that supports all the community causes and does so much for the community on a consistent basis.

They have the huge selection of tequilas and over 200 bourbons, including the Blue Note Juke Joint single barrel bourbon whiskey available in a special edition.

There are excellent deals on the finest French, Spanish and Italian wines as prices are still historically low.

Tony Mart Cares is doing work for several of our musical artists right now and we cannot thank Circle Liquor Store for the immense amount of support they provide to us so we can help all of them.

We love Circle Liquor Store and this week we will welcome our wine Goddess, Julia Stacey Reilly at Staceyj100@hotmail.com. She will have all kinds of great recommendations and advice on how to enjoy the summer fun.

The chefs are lining up to compete against the current Jersey Gumbo King, Chef Robert Levinson from Resorts, the People’s Choice Award Winners, Chef Dan Luber from Greate Bay Country Club and Niko Karamanis from Galloway Casual Dining.

One of the great, creative chef characters in South Jersey, Chef Mohamad from the Golden Pyramid, will be competing this year. He brings the exotic essence of Italian, Egyptian and Mediterranean into everything he prepares and that will include some really interesting gumbo. Chef Joe Sheridan from ACCC has all the classic elements in his gumbo. He came in very close to winning with a beautifully balanced and spiced classic New Orleans style gumbo.

Next week we will have Chef Mohammad on the show to talk about his world class, unique dining experience at the Golden Pyramid located at 6032 Blackhorse Pike in Mays Landing. He presents an extensive menu of culinary delicacies with just the right flavorful touches and huge portions with full meals and wonderful soups as well as complementary appetizers.

As one of the premier restauranteurs in his cozy signature establishment, Chef Mohammad will be a formidable contender!

It’s really time to get off the couch and put down the cell phone and live life with Tony Mart. At The Point this Thursday night, July 3rd from 6-10PM, the Billy Walton Band kicks off the 4th of July weekend Tony Mart Style!

We’ll see you on the unique and magical Beach in Somers Point where we are the Number One Outdoor Concert Venue in the country.
