TRENTON MAKES MUSIC

The Sound of the City: "Listen Up – Trenton Makes Music"

Get ready for a cinematic journey through the soul of the Capital City. Join us at Randy Now’s Man Cave for a special screening of Art Varga’s documentary short, "Listen Up – Trenton Makes Music."

This isn't just a history lesson; it’s a tribute to the "Boston Blue Beat" of the Mid-Atlantic—the sounds, the sweat, and the songs that define Trenton. The film explores the city’s deep musical legacy from the 1960s to today, featuring intimate interviews with the artists, historians, and community voices who lived it.

What to Expect:

• The Story: A deep dive into Trenton’s once-vibrant scene, from national stars to local legends who chose to play for their neighbors.
• The Legends: Featured insights from musicians like Paul Plumeri, Joe Zook, and the late Sarah Dash (Labelle), plus the moving story of Maury Muehleisen (Jim Croce’s legendary guitarist).
• The Reunion: Witness the "Listen Up" project in action—bringing together artists who haven't played together in 40 years to record a brand-new anthem for the city.

Come see why "Trenton Makes, The World Takes"—and why, when it comes to music, the world is still listening.
