The Jersey Tenors will kick off the series on Jan. 22, 2018. They present a sensational blend of the most iconic opera classics alongside some ABBA, Elton John and Josh Groban favorites. But they are also “Jersey proud!” and do not forget where they came from as they highlight the best of the NJ brethren like Frankie Vallie and the Four Seasons, Frank Sinatra, Bon Jovi, and Bruce Springsteen.

They have headlined at Yankee Stadium, The Pentagon, the New York Stock Exchange, Formula One Singapore, Heinz Field, Fenway Park, the Atlantis Resort and Hotel in Dubai and theaters all over the U.S. They have opened for Diana Ross, Dionne Warwick, Deborah Cox, and Chubby Checker, President George W. Bush, and were also featured on the season finale of The Housewives of New York on The Bravo Network.
