Dogs In A Pile (DIAP) made their Stone Pony Summer Stage debut this past Friday to open the triple-threat summer tour being dubbed the “Pigeons Frasco Dogs Tour”. Andy Frasco graciously switched set times with DIAP to let the Asbury Park locals relish a little longer in the special occasion with their family, friends, and fans.

The Stone Pony Summer Stage is back for the 2024 season and hosted Joe Russo's Almost Dead for a raging two-set heater on May 17, 2024, that featured a full set with friend and frequent collaborator, multi-instrumentalist Stuart Bogie. The band honored their Garden State roots, as eighty percent of the quintet are originally from New Jersey, with two tasty tunes by Bruce Springsteen along with their slate of Grateful Dead covers.

“Easy come, easy go / Easy left me a long time ago,” Eddie Vedder sang, shrouded in shadows on a dark stage during Pearl Jam’s opening selection of “Pendulum.” The Dark Matter World Tour touched down in Sacramento on May 13 and Vedder and the band displayed the musical muscle that has kept them at or near the top of the rock world for more than 30 years.

On May 13, 2024, many musical greats gathered at the iconic Carnegie Hall for a special tribute to Crosby, Stills & Nash.

Eggy, the jam rock quartet from Connecticut, returned to The Warehouse at FTC in Fairfield, CT, on May 4, 2024, for their seventh performance at this gem of a venue in the Constitution State.

They also crushed this special two-set show on their home turf and brought the lucky fans in attendance along for the ride.

The legendary Brooklyn Bowl in Brooklyn, NY hosted two very different, but incredibly talented jam bands on Saturday, April 27, 2024. The Motet, a six-piece funk band from Denver, CO, was in the headliner time slot, with Lespecial, the prog rock power trio from Southern Connecticut as the opener. Both bands brought a lot of fun, jam-rock energy, albeit from very different musical perspectives.

When Primus takes the stage, it's not just a concert—it's an odyssey through the whimsical, the bizarre, and the downright mind-bending. Hailing from the depths of musical experimentation since 1984, with their current lineup solidifying its cosmic synergy since 2003, Primus is a band that defies categorization and embraces the unconventional with gusto.

Last weekend, Billy Strings delivered two sold-out concerts at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky. The weekend was a full-fledged celebration of bluegrass music in the state where it all began decades ago with Bill Monroe.

Never missing the chance to educate the audience on the bluegrass legends that came before him, Strings filled the setlist on Friday night with several traditional bluegrass tunes and covers, many of which referenced the state of Kentucky.
