Jen Chapin & Rosetta Trio
featuring Stephan Crump (acoustic bass), Jamie Fox (guitar) and Liberty Ellman (guitar), with special guest Martha Redbone, (background vocals)

Jen Chapin's music is urban folk soul  story songs that search for community and shared meaning, powered by the funk and improvisation of the city. Critics have hailed her work as "brilliant.. soulfully poetic" (NPR), "thoughtful.. worth-savoring" (People), "addictive" (Boston Globe), "smart, observant, lyrically deft, politically aware and emotionally intuitive" (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel). JazzTimes has called her "a first-rate storyteller" while Relix regards her as "one of the freshest voices singing today." She has been featured on "Late Nite with Conan O'Brien," honored by the USA Songwriting Competition, appeared on stage with Bruce Springsteen, and opened up for Bruce Hornsby and the Neville Brothers. Her performances are powerful, spotlighting the world-class musicianship and rare chemistry of Grammy-nominated acoustic bassist/husband Stephan Crump with "unflappable melodist" (New York Times) guitarists Jamie Fox and "singular" (Village Voice) Liberty Ellman. As an activist, educator and mother based in Brooklyn NY, Jen also brings the knowledge and insight of varied experience (student/traveler in Mexico and Zimbabwe, BA in International Relations, longtime Member, former Chair and present Secretary of the Board of WhyHunger  (http://www.whyhunger.org)  to her workshops and presentations to college, church and community groups.

Jen's latest CD, the EP "Five Songs," was released in Spring 2011 -- songs of ambition (and the lack thereof), privilege (ditto), anger, affection, gratitude, exhaustion, and humility. In short, of family. These five songs will join newer work on a full-length album, to be recorded in March 2013 in Brooklyn with esteemed engineer/producer Kevin Killen.
