New Jersey’s own rock legends The Smithereens are bringing their electrifying sound to the Shore this summer. Celebrating an incredible four-plus decades of creating original, powerful rock ‘n’ roll, founding members Jim Babjak, Dennis Diken and Mike Mesaros are joined by Marshall Crenshaw on vocals.

Since forming in 1980, The Smithereens have captivated audiences with an unmistakable sound that defined the alternative rock scene. From their MTV-rotation classics like “Blood and Roses” and “Behind the Wall of Sleep” to radio staples like “Only a Memory” and “A Girl Like You,” these Rock & Roll Hall of Famers have influenced generations of musicians, including the late, great Kurt Cobain.

With 17 albums and over 2,500 live shows under their belt, The Smithereens’ Garden State roots run deep. Following their 2019 induction into the New Jersey Hall of Fame, the band continues to deliver the raw energy and authentic sound that’s made them legends. The addition of Marshall Crenshaw, a formidable artist in his own right and longtime friend of the band, brings a perfect vocal complement to their powerful sound.

This is a rare opportunity to witness rock history with the architects of alternative rock doing what they do best — delivering no-nonsense, powerful rock ‘n’ roll.
