NEWTON For over a third of a century, Southside Johnny has been a staple of the music industry with over 30 albums and thousands of live performances done around the world.
The band's newest album, "Pills and Ammo," is full of new material and packed with the band's exuberant rhythm and blues feel and the Jukes horn section, but has a sharper, guitar-oriented, rock and roll vibe to it.
Known for their hits "I Dont Want To Go Home" and "Havin a Party," the band consists of Southside Johnny, Glenn Alexander, Chris Anderson, John Conte, John Isley, Jeff Kazee, Neal Pawley and Tom Seguso.
Ill stack my group against any group out there. We enjoy playing, and the audience enjoys having a good time. Music is a shared emotion. We distill it down to that, Southside Johnny has said.
