Up Close
Interviews with Jersey icons and rising stars
Up-Close: 2025 (One Last Look Back)
In 2025, we were honored to interview Tommy James, Ricky Byrd, Jimmy Vivino, Dean DeLeo of Stone Temple Pilots, New Jersey Hall of Fame President Steve Edwards, rapper Myzz-London, Stevie Van Zandt and Tony Orlando. Admittedly, though, my favorite section has to be “Jersey History” for it is here where we can plummet the depths of 12 long-ago artists that have escaped the dustbin of time by what they left behind.
