Zach Bryan at MetLife Stadium: Everything you need to know about tickets, setlist, more
Bryan — who plays Friday, July 18; Saturday, July 19; and Sunday, July 20, on his Quittin' Time Tour at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford — recorded a song called 'Oak Island' for his 2024 'The Great American Bar Scene' album.
Fans assumed the track was about Oak Island, North Carolina, but it actually refers to the Oak Island Yard train depot in the Ironbound section of Newark.
'We were playing in Brooklyn. I was living on a bus in parking lot in Secaucus, NJ, for two days. We passed a shipyard called Oak Island,' explained Bryan on social media when a fan asked him about the backstory of the song.
The Kings of Leon and the Front Bottoms, Jersey guys, will open the shows. Another Jersey guy, Bruce Springsteen, joined Bryan on stage last year in Brooklyn and Philadelphia. If the Boss does play with Bryan at MetLife this weekend, he'll pass Oak Island on the New Jersey Turnpike on the way up.

Why Filmmaker Ari Frenkel Is All In On His Jewish Rom-Com Feature
Like many American Jews, Ari Frenkel reconnected with his faith in the wake of the October 7 terror attack on Israel nearly two years ago. 'I am one of those October 8 Jews,' he admits over Zoom. 'I just felt a calling to come back to my community, [but]Born to Israeli parents in New Jersey, the 39-year-old actor/filmmaker did not grow up observant by any stretch of the imagination and while he's never been a massive fan of "organized religion in general," he has maintained a 'spiritual' connection to Judaism for all these years. 'I've always believed in God, but I just have my own personal relationship,' he explains. 'I have an admiration for religious Jews that I didn't have before, in the way that they can so bravely represent themselves in a environment that's so hostile towards them.' The worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust and the resultant explosion of global anti-Semitism that followed Israel's ongoing campaign against Hamas in Gaza served as a major wake-up call for Frenkel. 'I want to marry a Jewish woman,' he says. 'I want to have a at least one Jewish baby. I never even thought about kids or dated Jewish women. Now, I'm like, 'Oh, I guess this matters…'' It also led to a profound shift in his view of Hollywood and the trajectory of his career. Once so rabid about booking acting gigs on mainstream film and television projects like Silicon Valley, American Crime Story, and No Hard Feelings, Homecoming, and Transparent, Frenkel has since become disillusioned with the storytellers he once idolized. 'Suddenly, some of the people I've worked for and with have have put out such heinous, awful commentary publicly that I'm embarrassed to have worked for and with them on things that may be my most reputable, commercial work,' he notes. 'It really shattered my idea of what matters in terms of 'Success.' Who f—ing cares if you're in a movie with a big director if that director hates you and your family, and wants them to die? I think it's been very sad and disheartening to see so many people I admire say such ignorant things about my people on a daily basis.' The jagged ideological division splitting his industry, paired with the uncertain future of entertainment and the concerning rise of artificial intelligence has inspired Frenkel to realize his debut feature film, See You on the Other Side, before it's too late. 'I fear that with the way AI is going so fast and the way the industry is going and the fear of [whether I'm]To that end, he's 'blown up his life a little bit,' renting out his apartment in Los Angeles, selling his car, and moving back to his parents' house in New Jersey to make the indie production, which he hopes to start shooting in the fall on an estimated budget of $300,000-$500,000, though prospective investors are still welcome to join. 'I burned the ships. I'm all in,' he stresses. 'I believe in this thing to a degree that people might say is delusional or insane. But I'm also like, 'Isn't that usually how it gets done?'' Frenkel, who wrote the screenplay, will also direct, produce, and star in the semi-autobiographical Jewish rom-com that sounds like a mix between Paolo Sorrentino's This Must Be the Place and Shawn Levy's This is Where I Leave You. The story centers around a struggling musician (who just so happens to be Israeli-American) looking to fulfill the wishes of his late father by tracking down the man's ex-girlfriend in order to tell her the bad news. 'And in his search, his own ex-girlfriend comes into his life,' teases the filmmaker. 'It's the parallel of these two relationships during that time, and it follows him throughout the year of grief, focusing on this Israeli-American family.' However, the Jewish/Israeli aspect is not the main focus of the film. If anything, it's an incidental detail that Frenkel hopes will show that Jews and Israelis are not a monolith. 'I've seen a lot of American Jewish family stories, but I've never seen them about an Israeli-American family,' he says. 'I wrote this movie that has nothing to do with the conflict, anti-Semitism, Israeli tech, Mossad or anything like that. It's just a family going through a human experience of love and loss. I think that that is how we can connect to other people, to show that we are just like you. We are all the same. I truly believe that about any culture." While he hopes See You on the Other Side leads to more directing opportunities in future, Frenkel's immediate hope is to change hearts and minds with an honest and heartfelt piece of cinema. 'This is what I got," he concludes. 'I've literally put all my eggs in this basket, because I really believe in it and think it's important. And even if one person is impacted in a positive way from it, then it was worth the time.'

Siegelman Stable Celebrates Hambletonian Centennial Horserace
Equine activity has inspired more than one fashion brand. To wit, Hermès and Polo Ralph Lauren both take their inspiration from horse-centric sports and the corresponding gear that accompanies them. Siegelman Stable quietly joined this specific brand descriptor in 2020. Founder Max Siegelman drew upon his family's harness racing roots thanks to the boarding and teaching facility for the sport involving the powerful animal, a sulky and human direction that dates to the 1800s in the US. Now five years later in what began as a $300 investment to create couple of trucker hats and sweatshirts using the logo for the family business his mother created in the 1980s to give to family and close friends, the brand has expanded to full collection and via several partnerships. One such tie-up is with the Hambletonian race which is celebrating its 100th anniversary. HARNESSING AWARENESS For the Hambletonian centennial the brand has upped the ante for a seven-piece collection channeling trackside style with a touch of streetwear that includes embroidered jackets, red piping, matching sets, and vintage tees. Additionally, the brand with takeover one of the boxes at the Meadowlands where the event will take place and give a luxe gloss up in line with the brands ethos. Speaking over Zoom in the parking lot of the New Jersey arena the day before the event, Siegelman notes how close he is to where the family's stable business was. 'We have done merchandise collaborations with the Hambletonian for the last few years, but this is the first time to create the experience and bring people out to see the race. Like all our pop-up locations, we are redoing the box décor to lean into the Eighties aesthetic. The stables were founded in 1982, and I want to stick true to the brand story, which essentially is my father,' said Siegelman. While the elder Siegelman was a driver and then training for the sport, the younger admits while he loves horses it wasn't his thing. 'I could probably count on my two hands how many times I've ridden a horse in the saddle or cart,' he confessed. While it's had its ups and downs, harness racing also referred to as the Trotters, was a prestigious happening in the past; in the 1970s, 1980s and even the 1990s attendees were dressed in suits and dresses, drinking champagne and smoking expensive cigars according to Siegelman. 'We're bringing a different type of elevated style to the track. Our intention with the Hambletonian is to attract a new audience to experience it for the first time and engage with it,' Siegelman explained. SCORING POINTS Harness racing isn't the only sport that Siegelman has partnered up with. The founder worked as a creative marketing consultant for hip hop music artists and NBA and NFL figures. 'I ran cultural relevance at Outfront Media for seven and a half years,' he continued noting the experience at the billboard and OOH advertising firm helped build a buzzy and strategic 'Rolodex' of connections, a crucial aspect of Siegelman Stable's founding success. Thus, the brand has over 70 collaboration projects under its belt since its founding with names like the Knicks, the Rangers, Major League Baseball teams such as an upcoming Mets collaboration, along with Don Julio tequila and Johnny Walker whiskey under parent company Diageo for the Superbowl. This past July 4th the brand launched a collaboration with Ford to celebrate the anniversary of the F-150 pick-up truck. 'Ford spoke to me because my dad had one, I grew up with my dad driving an Eddie Bauer edition Ford Explorer,' he added. For a brand that Siegelman said was 'started by accident', the timing of the rise of fashion collaborating in new arena has been a fortunate and lucrative aspect. 'Athletes and music artists are the face of fashion now, and I don't foresee that changing anytime soon,' Siegelman asserted SHOPPING STARTEGICALLY Thanks to Siegelman's connections to the world of OOH media—a medium that has risen as traditional print media has diminished and digital media consumed on small screens has risen—the brand has made a its own splash in the billboarding world. For a recent pop up in the Hamptons, the brand covered one of the infamous Jitney buses that cart folks to and from the city. That is also thanks to an ongoing relationship with Shopify, the online shopping platforms aimed at making digital transactions easy for both brand and consumer. I had idea what I was doing when I needed to create and e-commerce website, but I knew two things for sure. Shopify was the easiest thing to use. I had seen brands launch on Shopify, like Eric Emanuel and Supreme a year or two later converted from their website to a Shopify platform. They make it easy to create a website. I still own It's my website but built on Shopify as basically the easiest platform to create a website,' Siegelman said. The digital platform was also crucial in the brand's longest standing pop up to date this past December in Soho. Additional pop-ups include the East Hampton initiative (hence the Jitney bus wrap initiative) and an upcoming pop-up in Manhattan this fall which will extend through the holiday season. 'Retail experiences and in-person shopping is super important for us. I'm going to be on double down on that over the next 24 months,' he added. THE RACE AHEAD Siegelman has pulled off a slow and steady growth of his namesake luxury brand that stills retains an insider-only mystique with a lean team. 'We are a very small team; it's three people full-time,' he noted. One of which is his creative director and fiancé Karoline Spenning who has helped expand the brand offering from hats, Tee and sweatshirts to include ready to wear and suits in the past 18 months. 'Knitwear has also been really successful for us, we launched denim in the spring, swimwear this summer,' Siegelman noted. 'In the beginning, Siegelman Stables was very drop-ship model, DTC-based, but we've done some exclusive wholesale releases with stores such as CNCPTS in Boston, Forward in Aspen and its website. My perspective on wholesale is two-pronged. It's exclusive capsules and not diluting the brand with letting everyone in but rather controlled distribution,' he said, noting his intentions for the brand. 'I want to grow slow, strategic, and organically, with people understanding who we are. It takes a long time to build a brand aesthetic from scratch. I don't want to just be the next Von Dutch or I don't want to just be a branded hat that everybody wants. I want to build a full-on lifestyle brand that's going to last for a super long time.
