Jersey Ain’t That Bad: Songs From the Garden State
January 23, 2026
Maybe you’ve grown to have some reservations about the state of New Jersey. Maybe you have heard it referred to as the “armpit of America.” Or maybe your only point of reference is the reality show “Jersey Shore.” Well, we’re here to put the hate to rest. From Bon Jovi to Frank Sinatra to Whitney Houston and MANY more (that may even shock you!), let us show you all that Jersey has brought to the musical world. Sung by an all Jersey (or Jersey adjacent) cast, be prepared to hear hits by all of your favorite artists born and raised in New Jersey. Coming in hot from the Garden State, get ready for Jersey Ain’t That Bad: Songs From the Garden State, co-directed and produced by native New Jerseyans Liv Howell and Juliana Rose Smith.
