Editor-in-Chief

Evan Blaze is a Jersey Shore based editor and writer focused on coastal culture, local arts, and the evolving character of communities along the New Jersey coastline. With a background shaped by years spent around the water and small creative circles along the shore, he brings a grounded perspective to stories about music, independent film, neighborhood businesses, and the people who keep local culture alive.

Known for balancing a laid-back coastal sensibility with a sharp editorial eye, Evan works to highlight authentic voices and emerging talent across the region. His work often explores the intersection of surf culture, live music, and the everyday rhythm of shore towns, capturing the energy that defines life along the Atlantic.

When he’s not editing stories or working with contributors, he can usually be found near the water, checking the surf, walking the boardwalk at sunrise, or tracking down the next local story worth telling.
