We are proud to partner with A.J. Croce to bring you access to a special livestream series! A portion of each ticket sold benefits Monmouth University Center for the Arts. The album release show on Thursday March 18 celebrates the release of the new A.J. Croce studio album By Request available on CD and LP for pre-order today and out on February 5 via Compass Records. The album was born of memories—of favorite artists and shows, but mostly, of late-night gatherings with groups of friends, many of them fellow musicians, with Croce at the piano taking requests. On Thursday March 25 A.J. Croce brings his touring band to the stage with him to perform music from his en studio albums of roots music ranging from Blues and Jazz to Rock and Roll and Soul, including covers from the new album. This performance will include a variety of originals from albums like That’s Me in the Bar, Twelve Tales, and Just Like Medicine.

Based on the beloved novel by Michael Morpurgo, adapted for the stage by Nick Stafford.
