Podcast appearances and mentions of sandy relief

Welcome to the Inside LBI Podcast, where we invite you to join us on an incredible journey, guided by none other than one of its founders, Jeremy DeFilippis. It all began in 2003 when Jeremy and four close friends embarked on a strike mission to the mountains, armed with nothing but inspiration, enthusiasm, and $200 each in a hat. Little did they know, this adventure would lay the foundation for a brand that would redefine their lives and the world of outdoor apparel. Jetty was born out of a shared love for surf, fishing, art, travel, and music. Hailing from New Jersey, these visionaries realized that there was no predefined path to follow, so they decided to draw their own line. Now, as they celebrate their 20th year in business, Jetty continues to thrive, offering eco-minded and durable apparel that perfectly embodies the ever-changing conditions of the northeast surf scene, encouraging outdoor adventures no matter the weather. But Jetty isn't just a brand; it's a mission. As a B-Corp Certified company, they're dedicated to reducing waste, creating premium products, and supporting coastal communities. And that mission extends to the Jetty Rock Foundation, the non-profit arm of the Jetty brand. The Jetty Rock Foundation was formed in June of 2013 as a direct result of Jetty's massive Sandy Relief efforts. This approved 501(C)3 Charitable Organization allows the Jetty brand to continue to be a vehicle for fundraising by using its design, screen printing, and event prowess while providing a formidable channel to get direct aid to those in need. Through their nonprofit, they have donated millions of dollars to clean water initiatives and disaster relief efforts for over a decade. When you support Jetty, you're not just buying clothes; you're strengthening their commitment to protecting our oceans, waterways, and the communities that depend on them. Join us on this inspiring journey, led by Jeremy DeFilippis himself. Tune in to the Inside LBI Podcast and become part of our mission towards a better, more sustainable world—one adventure at a time.

Before the digital age, music was a lot different. If you wanted to listen to music, you had to buy CDs or vinyl records, and if you wanted to hear a specific song, you had to sit through an entire album just to get to it.  Nowadays, of course, we have iTunes and Spotify and other digital music platforms that let us listen to whatever we want, whenever we want. It's hard to imagine going back to the old way of doing things! But what if there were a way for musicians and music industry professionals to share craft, digitally? I'm so excited to share today's guest, Owen Grover, CEO of TrueFire Studios, who will be sharing with us all about the digitalisation of learning within the music industry and its benefits compared to traditional methods.

Music is beyond experiencing what's on the surface, beyond what is written, it is beyond hearing alone. When you are able to embody music to who you really are is art itself, being able to experience it with personal insights and experiences makes music even more meaningful and authentic. There are so many tools and theories out there to help you connect with music, but these tools and theories can not really connect you in depth with what the music is all about. But there is also a wonderful way to share your art and music with others through certain platforms where you can be genuinely listened to. In today's episode, we are joined by Owen Grover.

“Technology is gonna absolutely reinvent the way we think about, create, compose, distribute, and listen to music.” - Owen GroverTechnology is all around us. As a result, it is unsurprising that it has had a significant impact on twentieth-century music. It has changed the way music is transmitted, preserved, heard, performed, and composed, but one thing remains constant: the sense of togetherness. How is it maintained all throughout?In today's episode, we are joined by Owen Grover.

¡Hola a todos! ¿Qué tal lo estáis llevando? ¡Mucho ánimo a todos, paciencia… y buena música para pasar este tiempo de la mejor manera posible! Mientras esperamos a que empiece el concierto Jersey for Jersey, ¿qué tal si hacemos tiempo repasando alguno de los actos solidarios de Bruce Springsteen? Hoy es un día especial, porque hoy es el Jersey For Jersey. Un evento que no sabemos bien cómo será… no puede ser como un telemaratón al uso, porque estamos confinados… Yo estaré pendiente esta noche a ver si lo puedo ver… y grabar algo para contaros en un próximo capítulo cómo fue. Hoy voy a hacer un repaso a los actos solidarios de Bruce. Este capítulo no va a ser extremadamente riguroso, porque lo estoy haciendo tirando de memoria… y seguro que se me va a olvidar alguna cosa… confío en que no muy importante, pero es posible que sí… así que si me he comido algo muy gordo, espero que no me lo tengas en cuenta y que me mandes una nota de audio para que haga un corrección más adelante, ¿vale? Tenemos un número de whatsapp el: 682 73 44 05. El último gran evento que recuerdo en el que participara Bruce fue el concierto for Sandy Relief. El 12 del 12 del 12, en el Madison Square Garden. En ese concierto además de las entradas, se sobreimpresionaba constantemente unos teléfonos para que los espectadores donaran dinero vía SMS. Bruce Springsteen y la E Street Band abrieron una noche alucinante tocando Land Of Hopes and Dreams, que estamos escuchando ahora… seguida de Wrecking Ball. Pero Bruce se ha caracterizado durante su carrera por ser una persona solidaria y abierta a participar en causas con el fin de ayudar a los más desfavorecidos. En los bootlegs de los conciertos antiguos, recuerdo que es muy común que cerca del final de los conciertos, haga mención a los local food banks de las ciudades donde está tocando. En la gira de 2012 aquí en Europa, y en España concretamente, también hizo referencia a la crisis… a los tiempos duros… dentro de su charla habitual de introducción a alguna canción. Pero diréis, bueno, eso no es mojarse mucho… Pues cuenta la leyenda, parece ser que sí, vamos…. Que en los conciertos de Newcastle de la gira Born in the USA en 1985, esos mega conciertos… ocurrieron tres meses después de una huelga de mineros brutal… y bruce donó 20.000 dólares para el grupo de apoyo de los mineros de Northmberland y Durham. Bruce Springsteen tiene una historia muy potente con los Veteranos de Vietnam en Estados Unidos. En Born in the USA, esa canción tan mal entendida por muchos, hay varias líneas al respecto… y bien conocida es la relación que tuvo con Ron Kovic, el autor del libro que posteriormente fue película Nacido el 4 de Julio. Pero Bruce ya venía implicándose con los veteranos de vietnam desde antes… ya en 1981, cuando la asociación de Veteranos de Vietnam tenía tres años y estaba pasando por momentos difíciles económicamnete, Bruce, en aquel verano, el 20 de agosto, con todo agotado, donó todos los beneficios del primero de los seis conciertos que hizo en el Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena a la asociación de Veteranos de Vietnam. Además de los veteranos de Vietnam. Bruce ha estado muy involucrado en los veteranos del ejército de estados unidos en general. De siempre es su participación en Stand up for heroes, organizado por la Bob Woodruff Foundation. En 2013, la fundación Musicares le nombró persona del año. Se subastó una guitarra suya firmada que llegó hasta 50.000 dólares, pero tras ponerse Bruce al mando de la subasta, se llegó a los 250.000 dólares. Y por supuesto, que no se me olvide, el festival Light of Day. Un festival que se lleva celebrando creo que desde el 2000 o así y que ofrece durante diez días docenas de actuaciones a mitad de enero en distintos locales de Nueva York y Nueva Jersey, en favor de la fundación Light of Day y la lucha contra la enfermedad del Parkinson. La gracia del Light of Day es que Bruce nunca está confirmado en el cartel… así que puedes ir y que ese año no vaya… aunque el porcentaje de participación es bastante alto. Bruce Springsteen ha donado una de sus guitarras, y la ha firmado, para la subasta benéfica que Charity Buzz ha organizado en beneficio de la asociación Why Hunger Pero bueno, no sólo esto… tras la muerte de Danny Federici en 2008 se volcó con la DannyFund y la MRA, la Alianza para la investigación del Melanoma. También se le conoce colaboraciones con la Kristen Ann Carr Fund, una fundación para la investigación del Sarcoma. Y Conciertos para recaudar fondos para el pequeño teatro Count Basie, de Red Bank, New Jersey o conciertos benéfico que en los últimos años ha venido dando para los padres y alumnos del colegio Rumson Country Day School. Y aunque no haya sido para recaudar fondos, recuerdo que en la última gira The River, en 2016, Bruce canceló el concierto de Carolina del Norte por las leyes anti LGTB que habían promulgado en el Estado. Más parecido a lo que imagino que será esta noche el Jersey For Jersey fue el concierto del 21 de septiembre de 2001, sólo 10 días después de los atentados del 11 de septiembre, Bruce participó en el concierto benéfico America: A tribute to heroes. Un telemaratón para recaudar fondos par Donde fue el primero en participar. Recuerdo que fue algo muy impactante: interpretando My City of Ruins.

After Superstorm Sandy hit the peninsula, then-college student Nick Compagnone worked with the Graybeards to help collect hundreds of thousands of dollars for the non-profit’s Sandy Relief fund. Almost five years later, the now up and coming real estate executive is still giving back to the community. The Wave invited Compagnone to our offices to sit down for an interview, hoping to learn more about what he’s up to now.
