Yesterday, I had the privilege of interviewing two very talented New Jersey musicians.
In the morning, I met Chris Rockwell at the Terrace Bagels & Cafe in Freehold. There, we (ate delicious bagels with flavored cream cheese spreads like sun-dried tomato and blueberry, and) chatted about his upcoming performances with the Charm School Dropouts (there’s one this Friday at Bands on a Budget on Mattison Avenue in Asbury Park), as well as his new solo album coming out in the fall. Information about this Friday’s show and other upcoming events can be found via Chris Rockwell’s facebook page. I’m certainly hoping to check out Friday’s show.
Later on, I spoke with Tom Brislin who is hard at work in Nashville, TN writing songs for his first solo album. He has turned to the Kickstarter campaign to fund his project, and you can read more about my interview with Tom Brislin on Notes on the State of New Jersey.
Today, I’m off to visit our neighbor, NYC, with some Jersey friends for lunch and a play in Central Park.
Hope you have a great day!
