Lively and rocking, the Gerry Rosenthal Trio mines Americana, folk and blues, drawing comparisons to Mumford and Sons, Punch Brothers, and Ben Folds. The Gerry Rosenthal Trio is Gerry Rosenthal on acoustic guitar and lead vocals, Jack Breslin on upright bass and Sean-David Cunningham on violin, rounding out Gerry’s songs with 3-part harmony and free-wheeling improvisation.. Check out the trio’s 2019 EP “First”!

J Hacha De Zola is a hyper-creative musical force who hit numerous “Best of 2019” lists with his LPs, EPs, and iconoclastic covers of pop songs. Stereo Embers describes Hacha de Zola’s sound as “a dark and swinging blend of jagged jazz, back alley blues and deliciously demented carnival stomp,” calling him “one of the most important and singular artists making music today.” Such raves and his live shows are establishing this “Urban Junkyard” artist as “a wild man in the vein of such fire-breathing artists like Screamin’ Jay Hawkins and Captain Beefheart” (Paste).

JamBase calls rock musician Debra Devi “a supersonic fret-burner who writes hauntingly memorable songs.” Urban Politico says, “vocally, Devi is a dead ringer for Sheryl Crow, and her music radiates infectious joy, reminding us of The Black Crowes, Prince, and Little Feat.” Live, adds New York Music Daily, “Devi leads a ferocious band equally adept at sprawling psychedelic jams and terse, soulful rockers.” Look for her new EP, A Zillion Stars Overhead, with Gov’t Mule’s Jorgen Carlsson on bass and mixed by Sylvia Massy, in early 2020.

Headroom is a beautiful venue devoted to rock, jazz, funk & blues at 150 Bay Street in downtown Jersey City (5 min. walk from Grove PATH).
