Welcome to

SPLATTER CONCERTS

Splatter Concerts is the new name for the series of shows that began back in 2002 at Holy Wisdom Church in Flanders, NJ. Our current home is located in Whippany, NJ, where we rent the facilities at the Ukrainian American Cultural Center, a new venue with beautiful concert space and ample parking. We continue to bring you the best in blues and American roots music, with occasional forays into rock, folk, and country. Our spokescat, Splatter, a Philadelphia native, adopted our founder several years ago and remains pretty much the brains behind this operation. Ms. Splatter will be happy to answer your questions and requests for information. See the "Contact Us" e-mail below.


Our Philosophy
It's about the music! We're not in it for the money. When we can, we regularly donate to local worthy causes, and we couldn't do what we do without the gracious assistance of volunteers, including several gentlemen from the Knights of Columbus, a very worthy charitable organization.  Let's face it - it's not so easy to enjoy good live music these days. Most of us have job and family responsibilities, ticket prices have skyrocketed, and the venues in NY or Philly aren't that close. By having concerts locally at an earlier hour, you can skip the traffic, time spent on the road, bridge or tunnel tolls, parking fees, late nights with insufficient sleep, and outrageous ticket prices. We offer tasty, affordable food, and depending on their age, children under 18 are either free or pay no more than $5.00 - so you don't need a babysitter if you can't find or can't afford one. Every effort is made to make it easy for you to come and enjoy the music!
