“It’s hideous! It’s horrible! It’s home!” 🖤🎃

Happy Halloween! by @chrispinnella

It feels like fall today so I figured I’d bring some fall vibes with this classic song that always feels like a Sunday while the 🍂🍁 are falling —

🎶 Our House

If you think Billy Joel is one of the best composers of our time, you’d be correct 😎🎶🔥

Can’t believe this one is 10 on 10/10! What a wild day yesterday that took the girls up to the Meadowlands for a dance convention and then all of us down to Atlantic City for a concert and late night birthday dinner. Love you Rems ❤️❤️❤️ by @chrispinnella

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Can’t believe I’m writing this but FINAL tickets for our 2PM show are going FAST. If you know you’re coming grab em now. We haven’t even started advertising these shows yet. I’m so grateful to everyone for your support 😎

Could it get more Christmasy than this? Andy, the theatre’s Artistic Director took this video our very first year we debuted our holiday show at the Newtown Theatre. Yes, it was snowing, yes it was sold out. One of my all time favorite music memories 🎶

This song hit me like a brick when I was looking to pay tribute to the late @glenhansard at my last concert. I knew I wanted to do something familiar, but not too familiar and landed on this beautiful song. @eddievedder has done a few gorgeous versions of this tune as well, including at Glen’s funeral service — which I didn’t know about until after my show had happened — the message is clear: May the Song of Good Hope, walk with you through everything 🎶 #glenhansard #cover #songofgoodhope by @chrispinnella

About 9 years ago Tara and I randomly decided to road trip with Remi (she was 1) up to Maine. It turned out to be one of our favorite trips ever. Each year since we’ve made the trip and each year the kids ask us, ‘When are we going to Maine?’ 😁 by @chrispinnella

GOOD NEWS / SAD NEWS: For nearly a decade, one of my absolute favorite holiday traditions has been coming home to Manasquan for our annual Christmas concert fundraiser.

For the first time in almost 10 years, we won’t be returning to Manasquan High School for our annual Christmas concert.

I can’t begin to tell you how grateful I am for all of the memories we’ve made there — the musicians who have shared that stage with us, the MHS Arts Organizations we’ve been able to support, and especially the thousands of you who made this concert part of your Christmas season year after year.

But the tradition isn’t ending. ❤️🎄

This year, we’re bringing Christmas to The Vogel at the Basie Center in Red Bank on Sunday, December 20 — with TWO performances at 2 PM and 7 PM.

We’ll be there with our 15-piece orchestra, special guest vocalists, and a huge night of holiday music — everything from the classics to the big, cinematic arrangements that have become such a part of these concerts.

Last year, both of our performances at The Vogel sold out, and I would absolutely love to see some familiar Manasquan faces make the trip up to Red Bank and continue this tradition with us.

After nearly a decade, it’s bittersweet to say we won’t be together at Manasquan High School this Christmas.

But I hope this isn’t goodbye to the tradition.

It’s just a new chapter.

Shoutout to the BOSS @springsteen — We closed out our final AP Rooftop show of the summer with THE RISING — What a beautiful night with you all 🎶 by @chrispinnella

WHAT. A. SUMMER. Asbury Park! Massive thanks to everyone that bought a ticket to see us this summer at AP Rooftop! These shows truly take a village — from my insanely talented musicians, to my sound, tech engineers, lighting, crew (shoutout to Tony Losardo & Junior) at Beachside Productions, to the management staff, hosts, bartenders, servers, at AP Rooftop — Special thanks to Tim McLoone for throwing his support behind these shows and giving the green light for the first rooftop show last summer. Also to the McLoone’s Corporate staff running logistics, ticketing, email blasts, and socials (thank you). More thanks to The Star Centre in MD for allowing me to borrow all of your beautiful candles. Finally to my family who really does so many things behind the scenes for me that I couldn’t even begin to list them here ❤️

Looking forward to some indoor shows this fall, as well as our Christmas Tour that kicks off the day after Thanksgiving! Hope to see you at a performance. Can’t wait! by @chrispinnella
