When:
September 12, 12:30 PM - 2:30 PM
WP Midday Artist Series Bobby Mahoney (acoustic duo with Andrew Saul)

Overview

A native of East Brunswick, NJ, and an alumnus of William Paterson University, Bobby Mahoney brings his signature sound to the stage in an acoustic duo as part of WP’s Midday Artist Series.

When you grow up within earshot of the Jersey Shore, and just a bridge or tunnel away from New York City, inspiration comes in waves. Mahoney’s music is a blend of Springsteen and Bon Jovi mixed seamlessly with Gaslight Anthem, Against Me! and the Menzingers; generating a ground-breaking approach. The result has led to Mahoney joining the robust roster of New Jersey icon Stevie Van Zandt’s (The Sopranos, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, Little Steven & The Disciples of Soul) Wicked Cool Records and releasing Another Deadbeat Summer, his first album with the label.

Mahoney has spent the last decade honing his live performance, and his prowess has not gone unnoticed. When he wasn’t blowing the roof off dive bars, college basements, and music halls - along with his band, currently consisting of Andrew Saul (guitar), James McIntosh (drums, and Jon Chang Soon (bass) - he was opening for Against Me!, Frank Turner, Bon Jovi, and Steve Earle. Most recently, Mahoney played The Continental Club in Austin, TX as part of the Wicked Cool Records Rock & Roll Revue for the 2024 South By Southwest festival.

That cutting edge attitude, along with a blue-collar work ethic and an education that was born out of a relentless touring schedule has given Bobby Mahoney a creative foundation in song craft and a solid understanding of what it takes to succeed. He has done all of this before hitting 30 years old, and is just getting started.
