January 1st - pianist/vocalist Carolyn Wilkins and saxophonist Willie Sordillo

Starchild--our house jazz quartet with a fresh approach to standards

Williamson returns to the "Home of the Blues" to once again jam it up. This time it's a jazz and blues session on Thursday nights with his new band, The Midnight Creeps, featuring guitarist Slim Tim Gruntman, bassist Phil Joinville and drummer Randy Harris.

The group intends to travel the mutual landscape between jazz and blues – performing jazz compositions by the likes of Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins and John Coltrane, as well as delivering the blues standards by Little Walter, Muddy Waters and Willie Dixon.

Each week we invite a national, regional or local touring artist to perform a "feature" set. This allows you to enjoy some fine music in an intimate listening environment. The feature artist will play a 45-minute to one hour set, usually starting at 9:00 PM.

Before and after the feature artist, we open up the Rose Room stage to anyone who wishes to play a 15 to 20 minute set. During the feature set we "pass the hat" to help to support the artist. All performers, featured or otherwise, are encouraged to have CD's and cassettes available for purchase, performance calendars, bumper stickers, t-shirts and mailing list signup sheets.

We believe in shameless self-promotion! Open mic performers are also encouraged to have CD's and cassettes available for purchase, performance calendars and mailing list signup sheets.

The Paper Raincoat is an imaginative collaboration between Brooklyn songwriters Amber Rubarth and Alex Wong that brings to life a colorful world teeming with compelling characters, dream-like story-lines, and metaphorical narratives. Their debut EP Safe in The Sound is an introduction to this fantasy world drawn from real experiences of excitement and solitude its creators shared in moving to New York City.
