Here’s Everything You Need To Know About the 2024 Light of Day Shows

Author Jim Monaghan

If it’s January, then we must be talking about Light of Day WinterFest 2024, the annual music festival that takes place throughout January in Asbury Park, Deal, Red Bank, Montclair, and New York, which has announced its schedule and lineups.

All performances and events will raise money and awareness for its continuing battle to defeat Parkinson’s disease and its related illnesses ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) and PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy) within our lifetime.

Tony Pallagrosi is the Executive Director of the Light of Day Foundation; Glenn Burtnick is a New Jersey legend having been a member of various NJ shore-area bands, Styx, and he’s written songs recorded by Patty Smyth and Don Henley, and Beth Hart.

Glenn is a part of this year’s Light of Day lineup and his current band, the Weeklings, has a new album coming out on Friday, January 19.

Jim Monaghan’s band Dead Äire (pictured above at the 2023 LOD shows) will be playing the Silverball Arcade in Asbury Park on Friday, January 19.

Light of Day 2024 Details

Venues hosting LOD WinterFest 2024 shows include Asbury Park’s Stone Pony, Wonder Bar, Asbury Lanes, Clinch Transparent Gallery, Asbury Hotel, McLoone’s Supper Club, Watermark, Silverball Museum, Berkeley Oceanfront Hotel, Low Dive, RBar, The Break, and Capitoline; Deal’s Axelrod Performing Arts Center; Red Bank’s Count Basie Center; Outpost In The Burbs in Montclair; City Winery in Manhattan; and Penguin Rep Theatre in Stony Point, NY.

Over 24 years, Light of Day has utilized the awesome power of music to raise approximately $6.5 Million to combat Parkinson’s disease, ALS, and PSP. Light of Day has grown from a one-day event into a multi-day festival in the metropolitan area. More significantly, Light of Day has expanded into an internationally recognized tour, through a true grassroots effort of musicians, music fans, and benefactors. Light of Day shows have taken place around the world on three continents, with shows in Canada, England, Wales, Ireland, Sweden, Belgium, Norway, Denmark, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Spain and Australia. Portions of the proceeds from each show are donated to a local Parkinson’s organization.

5 Local Concerts To Attend To Rock In The New Year

There’s nothing like a live concert. That feeling you get when you are waiting for your favorite band to take the stage. Then the lights dim, and you know they’re about to come out and bring it! As we kick off this New Year, there’s already a bunch of killer shows that are coming up. Let’s take a look at 5 local concerts to attend to rock in the New Year!

Usually, you round up some friends hop in the car, and make your way to a venue. Tailgating is a favorite pastime for some. While others just head right inside once doors open ready to headbang or feel the music pound in their chest.

Heck, I’ve even gone to a concert myself when I couldn’t find a single person who liked the band, so I bought tickets to see it. And I’ll tell you what – It was a blast. I focused on the musicianship, had a drink, and didn’t have to make chit-chat with anyone. No matter how you go, the concert experience is always unique and fun!

I love seeing what songs a band chooses to perform in their set. There’s always that possibility of a special guest popping up on stage. And then, of course, it’s not just about the music, but what will we see? Explosions, pyrotechnics, video screens. There are so many ways for an artist to present themselves now, it’s amazing!

Thankfully, being in New Jersey, we get so many artists stopping by, whether it’s at one of our many awesome venues or nearby NYC or in Philly.
We’re never at a loss for an awesome show to attend and that’s why I thought we could take a look at what is on the way my friends. Below, you’ll find 5 local concerts to attend to rock in the New Year!
