(ASBURY PARK, NJ) — Monday, May 6, 2019 marks the start of the third year “on the air” for Radio Jersey, which broadcasts Monday through Friday from 6:00pm-8:00pm on internet radio station AsburyMusic.Com. Lee Mrowicki, the host and producer of the program that features the music of New Jersey, credits the show’s listeners as well as New Jersey artists for the popularity of the program.

“All I really do is steer the ship, the performers and the listeners provide the fuel to make it go,” said Mrowicki. “I must say that both have been so encouraging and appreciative of what Radio Jersey is all about… I must be doing something they like.”

Mrowicki adds, “I do get a little help from my friends as well. Radio Jersey gets regular contributions from Vini “Mad Dog” Lopez, former WNEW-FM and CBS-tv star Mark McEwen, J.T. Bowen from the Red Bank Rockers, former WHTG-fm DJ Nick Ciavata, music journalist Bob Makin, and of course, my partner in crime, award-winning newscaster Steve Lubetkin. J.T. Bowen serves as the program’s spiritual advisor. Lopez and McEwen send in reports reliving some of their interesting rock’n’roll experiences. Nick Ciavata and Bob Makin file reports about the music scenes throughout the state. Steve Lubetkin keeps listeners abreast of important NJ news once each hour. And of course, we play the greatest music in the world from local as well as famous NJ performers for NJ listeners and for the entire world to hear.”

The Radio Jersey program stays fresh with specific themes each weekday. On Mondays, the first hour features “Cover Me Monday” with cover songs by well known NJ performers as well as cover bands, whose talent rarely, if ever, gets recognized. This past Monday’s show featured a little known version of Springsteen’s Born To Run by the Who’s Roger Daltry. The second hour on Monday is Ladies Night, featuring the music of Jersey Girls from the past and present. It’s “Two for Tuesday” on Tuesdays when Radio Jersey get a chance to showcase 2 songs by NJ performers. Wednesdays feature “The Alternative Side of NJ Music”, with music from up and coming performers in addition to well known performers such as Bouncing Souls, Blondie, Front Bottoms, Richard Barone and more, plus the Makin Waves Report with Bob Makin. Every Thursday is “Throwback Thursday”, digging into the archives for NJ music of the 1960’s into the 2000’s. Every Friday, the first hour is a free-form hour and also features the North Jersey Music Report with Nick Ciavata. The second hour, “The E Street Block Party” plays Bruce and music of the individuals from his band, past and present.”

Radio Jersey gives listeners a wide variety of NJ music and is attracting new listeners daily. “We know who is listening because they tell us daily, and listeners show their appreciation with their fantastic remarks on Facebook and in person”, says Mrowicki, known to many as “The Legendary Voice of the Stone Pony” and who still makes occasional DJ appearances at the world famous Asbury Park club, as well as its sister club, The WonderBar. Lee will serve as the host and DJ providing music for the Spring-Nuts annual gathering, “The Seaside Serenade” on Sunday May 5th at the Stone Pony.

In addition to the Radio Jersey program, Asbury Music plays a mix of new rock and roll and Americana alongside classic rock, 80s rock, and cover songs.  The station has one of the largest archives of New Jersey artists, but also plays artists from around the world.  The station is available at www.AsburyMusic.com and via the TUNE IN app available on most smart phones.
