Live entertainment every Friday night

Michel Penard,(France) Radio ISA ...a real musical personality.

Cafe Improv TV30: Exquisite jazz voicings on his guitar and subtle, sophisticated vocals make John our keynote act of the evening. John is a favorite of both our in-house and television audiences.

Adam Lewis - The Islander/ Asbury Park Press/Gannett Papers: John Padovano is a throw-back to a simpler time when compact discs weren't even a thought and good music came on the radio from legendary crooners.

MUZIQ For EVERYONE: By Natalie Adis (USA)This man truly is a folk/acoustic genius.
