'GRANDFATHER OF THE NEW JERSEY SOUND'

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

With over 30 years of experience in the music industry, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes’ music features blues-inspired horns blended with gritty rock and roll. Their hit songs include “I Don’t Want To Go Home,” “Love On The Wrong Side Of Town” and “The Fever.” The group has more than 30 albums and has played thousands of legendary live performances around the globe.

Originally formed in 1975, the Jersey Shore musical group, led by Southside Johnny, started as the house band at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Since then, the band has undergone many changes in band members — in the early years, the group performed alongside Bruce Springsteen and Jon Bon Jovi, with members later joining Springsteen’s E Street Band. With a flourishing career spanning across decades, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes continue providing fans with their upbeat Jersey sound and rhythm and blues feel with hits like “Havin’ a Party,” “This Time It’s For Real” and “Talk To Me.”

ELIZABETH YOCHIM

Elizabeth Yochim is a performance artist, dancer, art historian and art world professional. She has a degree in Italian Renaissance Art History from the University of Michigan and for ten years directed the international art exhibitions for a gallery based in Beverly Hills, California.

She is a movement educator and studied dance since childhood. Authentic movement and “no fourth wall theatre” is the basis of her artistic practice. She creates solo and group performative works internationally that collaborate with the environment—be it the city or the natural world.  From the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to the edge of the Vatican City in Rome, from Berlin to Paris, the Angelbird, an enchanting, mythical figure, Elizabeth has offered a unique public engagement experience that begins with a specific performance and culminates with the invitation to “remember your wings” and metaphorically take flight.

These works explore the nature of human connection and disconnection, engaging the observer as a participant in equal measure. They provoke the spectrum of internal states, creating pockets of intimacy within the public sphere, to feel the emotional ecosystem we inhabit alongside our patterned life. This ecosystem becomes its own performative space to facilitate spiritual and practical insights into the micro- and the macrocosm.

The performative works engage story, tales and myth to reflect on our own nature within the invitation to participate and contribute as a equal creator and artist. Extinction and rebirth are themes. Love stories requisite.  

THE ANGELBIRD

The Angelbird is a mythical winged creature inspiring people to remember their dreams about flight and freedom. Through mesmerizing movement and spoken word, the Angelbird engages the audience in a tale compiled from her own migration, adding bits of science and symbolism from art history, ultimately encouraging the audience to engage the imagination and take flight. And they do. 

The experience is a highly entertaining, thought provoking, and deeply touching public performance ritual. Through the symbolism of taking flight, the Angelbird marries humankind’s mortality and divinity. The experience rekindles the imagination and catalyzes the power of the collective—to dream our highest hopes and aspirations into reality. 

As a public performance ritual, The Angelbird shows up on the streets from Los Angeles to Europe, from Croatia to Poland, from Germany to Italy, namely Berlin to Rome, distributing messages from a bird cage inviting people to remember their wings and to fly. 

The Angelbird was created by Elizabeth Yochim, a dancing art historian, who costumed as an all white-winged creature, performs amongst the piazzas and gardens, around museums and cathedrals, on trains and buses and within various congregations gently invading the spaces of our universal, communal psyche and infiltrating the pulse of the human spirit through the cadence of her artfully orchestrated wings. Asking the people that she meets, Do you remember your wings? & Will you fly with me?

JON STATHAM

Jon Statham was raised on music.

Jon has honed his singing, guitar playing and songwriting into a style that honors the classics, as well as offering a new voice that pushed music further.

After living in both New York and Nashville, playing and singing lots of styles of music, Jon has come to settle in Los Angeles to write the best songs anywhere.
