Came upon this great video of Willie Nile performing "Heaven Help The Lonely" on Letterman back in 1991. Here we are 35 years later, and Willie's still at it, performing with the same exuberance and abandon as he did back in the day.

Getting very excited for Willie's solo Storyteller show at Jersey Shore Arts Center (JSAC) on October 31st. The show kicks off our third season at the Arts Center - get your tix at the JSAC website while you can! Come on out!

We regret to inform you that due to a health issue, Kim Richey must reschedule all of her shows this month, including her show at Jersey Shore Arts Center on May 16th. We have worked closely with Kim’s team to reschedule the show to be part of next season’s concert lineup – the show will take place on June 5, 2027.

Given that the show is rescheduled over a year into the future, we have decided to reimburse our season subscribers, and those who bought tickets specifically for Kim’s show, the full ticket price. We will begin issuing reimbursements this week.

The show with Kim next June will be offered as part of our Season Three subscription package. Tickets for Kim will also be available for purchase as a single show. We will be announcing our Season Three lineup on June 9th and subscription packages and single show tickets will go on sale shortly thereafter. Keep an eye on your email for details in the coming weeks.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this postponement causes and we look forward to welcoming Kim to the Palaia Theater stage next season. She will be worth the wait!
