JAX, from East Brunswick, New Jersey, has been performing since the age of 11 (at NJ’s famed Stone Pony, Warped Tour, Bamboozle, Nassau Coliseum & more), but really captured America’s heart with her sassy rock songs, silky piano tunes and innovative take on pop culture when she competed, and placed 3rd on season XIV of American Idol. (Jennifer Lopez has stated she thought she could have won the whole thing and Billboard noted how she “persevered through a combination of music smarts, likability and yes, talent,”) Fresh off the premiere of their debut EP, Funny, Jax performs Live in Concert at the Jay and Linda Grunin Center for the Arts.
