Current Artists
Ray Callender and Taylor Roberts
Ray Callender and Taylor Roberts have been playing together for years, and have captured their own sound as a duo. They both attended the University of North Florida with a focus on Jazz Studies, and are two of the area's finest musicians.
Joshua Bowlus and John Ricci
Joshua Bowlus and John Ricci play together often as a quartet with bass and drums, and have great chemistry together on the bandstand. In the raw form of a piano & sax duo, there is a clear two-way conversation that can be heard in the musical sense. As two humans often interact, Ricci and Bowlus are building on each other's thoughts, discussing, bantering, laughing, and reminiscing.

The Kelly Green Duo

DJ Catharsis
"When searching for records, Catharsis concentrates on labels, artists, track structure, and an overall feeling of the tune. A jazz influence and a deeper direction attract him to music, his goal being to share music and educate a crowd. Catharsis explains that sometimes that means bringing the crowd up, but also, just as importantly, expressing an affable soundscape. Kevin Yost, Fred Everything, LTJ Bukem, Fragment Orchestra, Dzihan & Kamien, Timewriter, Bugge Wesseltoft ,Fila Brazilla and Jazzanova are a few of the many contemporary influences respected by Catharsis. The jazz greats Herbie Hancock, Bill Laswell, Oscar Peterson, Coltrane, Sun Ra and father Jack Petersen are his musical foundation." *
