Mike Geffner’s Inspired Word, one of New York City’s most popular indie performance series, presents Soundz & Vibez Off-Broadway Music Spectacular.
The Lineup…
Not Your Girlfriend is a New York City-based band, fronted by vocalist Erin Grace Kelly, one of the stars of the Off-Broadway hit The Office! A Musical Parody. Dominic Seyler plays lead guitar, Eric Boehning shreds bass guitar, and percussionist Blind Tim bangs out the beat. They play fun music for fun people in the style of 90s rock and modern pop. They were conceived in a chat room in 1984, formed in a petri dish, and recently escaped from a secret government lab. They are going through a lot right now. They are out past curfew. They are Not Your Girlfriend!
The Jolie Rose Band is a seven-piece group of uber talented teenaged musicians, founded and led by electrifying Triad veteran vocalist Jolie Rose. Imagine the soulful improvisation and technical brilliance of jazz meeting the raw energy and distorted power chords of rock. Add to that the infectious hooks and polished production of pop, paired with the heartfelt storytelling and emotional depth of blues. The band includes Jonathan Pascale on the drums, Kasey Schad on trumpet, Jackson Schad on bass, Quinn Perkins on saxophone, Aidan Arevalo on guitar, Dev Wade on keyboard/piano.
