SOUTH AND DEHART STREETS – MORRISTOWN, NJ
Flight Lights is a soul funk band comprised of North Jersey natives Matt Takesh (Guitar/Keys), Sam Ciceri (Guitar), and brothers Chris Riley (Bass) and Tommy Riley (Drums). The group is influenced by bands like the Grateful Dead, Phish, The Allman Brothers Band, and other moderns like Goose. In classic jamband fashion, Flight Lights takes the crowd on a journey, raising the tempo to high energy peaks then slowing it down to groovy pockets that get you feeling the funk.
Though the group is barely a year old, they have already showcased their talents winning the 2021 virtual Morristown Onstage and the 103.7 WNNJ Battle of the Bands at the NJ State Fair. Just a couple of months back the group headlined Meet Me In Morristown and they can’t wait to get on stage for this town again! You can catch a sneak peak on their social media’s @flightlightsband

Way back in 1999, Ron was the editor of an entertainment newspaper. Interviewing an aspiring singer, he found out a local entertainment company was hiring people to entertain at kids’ parties. Although this was something he had never done, and never even thought about doing, it was intriguing (and paid well), so Ron decided to give it a shot. Ron has performed at thousands of events in backyards, schools, fairs, festivals, amusement parks, and many more places – entertaining children, and adults. What started for him as dancing around in a Teletubbies costume and giving out lollipops has evolved into a family entertainment career, where he has developed his own character, and music and comedy shows for all ages. Along the way, he has maintained his “day job” of elementary school teaching, and started a family with his wife Antoinette. His two children help out with the business on stage and behind the scenes. Ron (POLKA DOT!) continues to grow, developing new material, shows, markets, and more – he has expanded into booking additional entertainers, event planning, and being a voice artist.
Continuing with the musical legacy of director Alberto Bernal (1921-1999) and his band El Combo de Oro, TropyBand Orquesta was founded in 2006 by Jairo Bernal and Diego Rodriguez. This ensemble in part with many local talented musicians, has been greatly accepted by the public for its unique interpretations of Salsa and Cumbia TropyBand Orquesta has had numerous performances at many clubs, festivals, private parties and corporates around New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.
We are primarily a Salsa band, however we also play other tropical rhythms such as Cumbia, “Salsa Dura”, Merengue, Bolero, English Latin Crossovers, etc. With a full brass and rhythm section, and very talented singers, our band plays latin music the way it was meant to be played.

A Musical Tradition Returns to Morris Plains
There was a time when almost every village and hamlet had a town band – concerts in the park, people of all ages playing their instruments, families of two and three generations playing in the band together —-
In Morris Plains, the town band was led by the village blacksmith – a man named Larry Monahan who taught free music lessons to the kids in town, and when they were ready, formed them into a band that he led continuously for fifty-three years. On his death in 1940, the members of the band renamed it the L. Monahan Memorial Band and kept it going for another 13 years until it finally disbanded in 1953.
And now, after a hiatus of 62 years, there is a town band in Morris Plains once again.
Organized by retired musician and bandleader Larry Ripley, our first rehearsal, October 21, 2015, drew twenty players, ages 11 to 70+ with a pretty good balance of instruments.
We sound pretty good for a new group, playing traditional American tunes, patriotic songs, marches etc.
