For Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes - 'comfortable' - has  never been a word associated with  their brand of raucous, roots-tinged  rock and bluesy  reverie. The band has flourished with more than 30  albums, releasing 12 studio albums since 1976....”Rolling Stone” named  their early release “Hearts  of Stone” as one of the “Top 100 albums of  the 70s and   80s”, thousands of live performances around the  globe, a  legion of famously dedicated and enthusiastic  fans, and a vibrant legacy  of classic songs that have  become "hits" to their worldwide fan base.

Southside Johnny Lyon is known as The Godfather of "the New  Jersey Sound" and was inducted into the New Jersey Hall of Fame by close friend Jon  Bon Jovi. Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes emerged from the New  Jersey shore scene in 1974, and  though they carried over a significant  influence (and some key personnel) from Bruce  Springsteen & the E Street  Band, the Jukes evolved as more of a white R&B horn band in the Memphis Stax Records tradition. Organized by singer Lyon, guitarist/songwriter Steve Van   Zandt (who decamped for the E Street Band in 1975, but continued to produce,  manage, and  write songs for the Jukes) and Richie Rosenberg, the band is well  known for their high-energy  live shows and no-holds-barred songs, including “I  Don't Wanna Go Home,” “Havin' a Party,”  “The Fever,” “Talk to Me,” “Trapped  Again” and “This Time It's For Real.”
