About The Show

“Through the pandemic, I listened to John Prine more than any other songwriter, by far,” says Joe D’Urso. “It was just a kind of optimism and a bright light in a dark time. Even when he’s talking about a horrible situation, there’s still the humor.” A group billed as Joe D’Urso & Friends — also featuring Loren Korevec, David Frye, Tim O’Donohue, Gary Solomon, Michelle Solomon, Christopher Brown and Jake Thistle, present two show’s a year: one that marks John’s birthday each October and one that marks his passing each April.

Prine, whose best known songs include “Angel From Montgomery,” “Hello in There,” “Sam Stone,” “Please Don’t Bury Me,” “Paradise” and “All the Best”, died in 2020, of COVID, would have turned turned 78 on October 10th.

Woodbridge Township presents A Tribute to John Prine with Joe D’Urso & Friends at The Avenel Performing Arts Center with support from Woodbridge Arts.
