"We've had amazing shows in J.C. before and I'm really looking forward to playing a new venue there. I've heard great things about White Eagle Hall and I'm excited to discover another gem in the city that holds my heart."

Frank Iero, who gained fame as a member of My Chemical Romance and the post-hardcore punk band, LeATHERMØUTH, formed his punk solo punk project, Frank Iero and the Patience (originally known as frnkiero and the cellabration) in 2014. The group's recent album, Parachutes, released in October of 2016, is considered by many critics to be a personal breakthrough for the artist. "These burnt and frayed punk songs burst forth with purpose and power, bearing the pale scars of some deep psychic wounds..... Iero has made a grand statement with Parachutes that should not be overlooked." (Alternative Press)

"Parachutes are life saving devices," Iero says about his newest record. "The act of living can be random and strange, beautiful and ugly at the same time and the only thing that is undeniably certain is eventually we are all gonna hit the ground. Some of us plummet at an incredible rate and it's over in a flash, but some of us get saved and are able to enjoy the view for a little while."

Originally constructed in 1910, the newly restored White Eagle Hall is an impressive new venue for arts and entertainment, including concerts, theater, performances and other events in the New York/New Jersey Metropolitan area. White Eagle Hall features complete Food & Beverage service, with two bars on the mezzanine level and one on the balcony level. The restoration enhanced the intimacy and charm of this historic venue while adding the latest in sound and lighting technology, creating a distinctive and memorable audience experience.
