GabeGate, a house concert series in Vernon, will present a 6 p.m. May 30 concert by the eloquent singer-songwriter James Maddock at the Spanish Pavillion restaurant in Harrison. A prolific recording artist, Maddock is planning to release a crowd-funded album this summer, so perhaps he will preview some songs from it. A native of England, he relocated to New York about 20 years ago, and has developed a strong following in New Jersey as well; he recently moved to Bradley Beach.
For a chance to win two tickets, send an email to njartscontest@gmail.com by noon May 27 with the word “Maddock” in the subject line.

The Outpost in the Burbs will present Martin Sexton‘s “Abbey Road Show” at The First Congregational Church in Montclair, May 31 at 8 p.m. Sexton will perform The Beatles’ great 1970 album — including songs such as “Here Comes the Sun,” “Something,” “Come Together,” “Octopus’s Garden” and the epic Side 2 medley — in its entirety, before a set of his own material.
This will be the last show of The Outpost’s 2024-25 season.
For a chance to win two tickets, send an email to njartscontest@gmail.com by noon May 27 with the word “Sexton” in the subject line.
