Parsippany Teen Named Among Best Musicians in Morris County

When Joshua Lustig was born, the Tonight Show Band was among the most popular pieces of late night television.

Now, the Parsippany Hills High School senior is jamming alongside Kevin Eubanks. That’s what happens when you’re among the best high school musicians in the county.

Lustig was nominated by his teacher, Gregory Dalakian, for his musical prowess at the high school and named among Morris County’s best musicians at the Mayo Performing Arts Center for the month of June.

Dalakian said of Lustig:

“Josh has played guitar in the PHS Jazz Ensemble all 4 years of his high school career. He has played guitar in all the Pit Orchestras during his years at PHS, and has even played for the Parsippany Hills HS Pit Orchestras as well. He is also the lead guitarist, composer and vocalist for the local teen favorite rock band “A Boy Name John,” and performs with them regularly all over the Tri-State area. They are currently working on releasing their second album. Josh is an excellent young musician and aspires to be a Music Teacher.”
