Artist description A diverse and energetic lot, our music recalls the intensity and emotion of the New York avant-garde scene of the 1960s. Heavily influenced by jazz, we create a rare mix of the freedom of improvisation with the mindfullness of restraint. Our work spans many genres, but at its core is an honest love for music.

Artist History The Room began in informal music sessions in our neighborhood. Over the last year, the three of us have found in The Room at least part of what we were each looking for. The Room continues to be an experiment in working together to achieve something that contains energy, emotion, and beauty.
