“Julia Jordan Kamanda, singer/songwriter, music mentor, and owner of J3Music Studios, is on a music mission. Her focus is on spreading a positive musical message to encourage and empower others. In 2010 Julia co-founded the Creative Arts Initiative in Sierra Leone, West Africa and travelled there to teach young women new ways to express themselves creatively through the arts. She currently offers songwriting, guitar, and vocal mentoring sessions to students of all ages; blogs about the experience of being a musician and a mom on her “Music Mommy” blog; and offers a music supervision service for independent filmmakers.

As a songwriter, Julia’s music is acoustic based; but the arrangements go much deeper, pulling inspiration from her jazz and folk roots and natural R&B soul. On her debut album Urban Legacy, released in 2007, she presents songs about light, love and trusting life’s changes- lessons she learned from her musical genius father, Stanley Jordan, and her poetess mother, Sandy Kilpatrick Jordan. At 30 years old, she already has 21 years of professional performance experience and her voice has carried her around the world to grace the stages of legendary music venues, including the Buzios Jazz y Blues Festival in Brazil; the Cairo Opera House in Egypt; the Long Beach Jazz Festival in California; and Alice Tully Hall in New York City, among many others. In her first music-for-film projects, Julia teamed up with Biko Studios to provide music supervision for two short films, SALAY and Kombra, both of which have gone on to win numerous awards and are currently making their way through the international film festival circuit.”– www.themusicmommy.com

Martini Bros

Harrisburg, PA-based retro-rockabilly combo the Martini Brothers was formed in the spring of 1994 by singer/guitarist Deuce Gibb, bassist Mike Mead and drummer Chad Matson. The following year saw the release of the band’s debut single “Up All Night,” followed in 1997 by the full-length Portable; that October, however, Matson suffered a fatal drug overdose, and although Gibb and Mead originally opted to dissolve the Martini Brothers, they ultimately reformed the group with new drummer Rej Troup.

Mark DeRose Band

“DREADNOUGHT BRIGADE s/sw Mark DeRose has had the pleasure of opening for national touring artists Rusted Root, Gin Blossoms, Michelle Branch, Edwin McCain, Blues Traveler, The Sugar Hill Gang and Josh Kelley. As well, he performed as part of an NFL halftime show for the Baltimore Ravens and his music has been featured for use on daytime television.

Early in 2013, DREADNOUGHT BRIGADE s/sw Mark DeRose was primarily working as a solo artist and considering a new sound for his music. It was at that time, he put together Mark DeRose & The Dreadnought Brigade. A few incarnations of the band’s line up, some musical exploration and what became a needed, shortened name change – brings you to 2019 and the DREADNOUGHT BRIGADE.

The core of the band is held down by DeRose on guitars and keys, Kyle Hancock on electric, Chris Jakubowicz on bass and Jake Ritchey on drums. A rich layer of melodic goodness is then added by the DREADNOUGHT BRIGADE’s two man horn section of Ryan Shenk on tenor and soprano sax, and Blake Hillard on Trumpet. Additionally, DeRose loves the opportunity to take advantage of his bandmate’s ability to sing harmony vocals, frequently adding the use of 3 and 4 part harmonies to their songs.

The DREADNOUGHT BRIGADE’s music calls upon DeRose’s love for rootsy blue-eyed soul and classic rock of the late 60s and 70s. The band brings high-energy performances of DeRose’s upbeat, feel good music to stages across the tri-state region. However, they’re just as happy to leave the amps at home and bring the same positive energy to acoustic settings, listening rooms, and house concerts in an effort to suit whatever the venue and performance space provides.

The main goal when this band steps on stage is simple – spread a little joy through music! For fans of Van Morrison, Dave Matthews, The Doobies, The Allman Brothers and The Band.”– dreadnought-music.com
