(JERSEY CITY, NJ) -- Joe McGinty & The Loser's Lounge return to White Eagle Hall to celebrate David Bowie's birthday on Saturday, January 11, 2025!

Bring your friends, dress up in your favorite Bowie era style, and join in on this celebration of David Bowie! P.S. THEY KNOW that his actual birthday is on January 8th, but they need a Saturday night to do it right.

Joe McGinty & The Loser's Lounge are a collective of NYC’s finest performers who have sold out shows for nearly 30 years. Founded in 1993 by former Psychedelic Furs keyboardist Joe McGinty, The Loser's Lounge continues to canonize the great songwriting catalogues of the ‘60’s, ’70’s and ‘80’s in its own unique way. “From Abba to the Zombies” as The New York Times has said, The Loser's Lounge is in the business of redemption; honoring pop stars from these eras and validating the zeal of music fans. From well known composers like Neil Diamond, Prince, Queen, and David Bowie to more obscure artists like Serge Gainsbourg and Harry Nilsson, The Loser's Lounge walks the line between sincerity and irreverence to recreate the meticulous arrangements of the classic song books that you love, LIVE!

Tickets start at $25 and are available for purchase online. White Eagle Hall is located at 337 Newark Avenue in Jersey City, New Jersey.

Lucrecia

Lucrecia Pays Homage to Former Bergen County Resident and Reigning Queen of Salsa, Celia Cruz

"Life is a carnival! It's much more beautiful to live it singing." If you're unfamiliar with my life's mantra, perhaps you’d recognize it if I were instead to say "la vida es un carnaval, es más bello vivir cantando." Now put a salsa beat under it and add the iconic voice of the Queen herself, Celia Cruz. Sound familiar? One would hope.
