About the artists:

Jumba Root 

Jumba Root is a collaborative project by saxophone player Andrew Javens (NYC/VA) and banjo player Aaron Cooper (Winston-Salem, NC). Their debut album, Sax is a Fiddle, Banjo is a Drum, combines dance melodies and rhythms from the North Carolina Piedmont with jazz approaches to improvisation and harmony. Braiding their voices together into a third music, Jumba Root excites and reminds of the great collective dance we join everyday.
Aaron Cooper is a dance banjo player from North Carolina. He is trained in the Piedmont region’s African-American square dance musical tradition, which predominantly features driving fiddle and banjo duets. As a student of the apprenticeship system, Aaron’s musicianship is as much about preserving and transmitting what has been passed down to him as it is wielding those teachings to produce new sounds. Andrew Javens is a saxophone player from Virginia, now based in Brooklyn, NY. They combine jazz, punk, and folk approaches in their compositions and improvisations, exploring the sonic possibilities of the saxophone in different settings. Interested in images that form and fall away and reform, Andrew makes music for sitting and walking at the same time. 

Tanner Bingaman

Songwriter, multi-instrumentalist (banjo, guitar, harmonica), producer, poet, and visual artist Tanner Bingaman spends his days foraging writhing folk art from the hills of Appalachia. He has performed extensively throughout the U.S. and Canada, touring over 15,000 miles thus far in 2026, performing everywhere from intimate house shows to international festival stages. Tanner has been a featured performer on various NPR stations, was a two-time artist-in-residence at the prestigious Avaloch Farm Music Institute (Boscawen, NH), is an upcoming artist-in-residence at The Volland Foundation (Flint Hills of KS), and his project Tanner Bingaman's Pretty Big Garden was recently awarded Best Americana Artist by the Central Pennsylvania Music Hall of Fame. Tanner's sophomore album, "Jubilee!" is due out late 2026 via Heady Wax Fiends, indie record stores, and through his own online store (presale available now at tannerbingaman.com)

Stephen Jeffries & Levi Rozek

Levi Rozek, trumpet, and Steve Jeffries, guitar, both moved to Philadelphia to become part of the city's vibrant music scene that continues to foster some of the finest musicians in the country. Meeting while in school, Steve and Levi began developing a musical rapport that continues to expand and evolve. Playing as a duo allows sensitive musicians a maximum ability to interact musically with one another on the spot with a conversational approach. At times carefully arranged and at others spontaneous and fresh, Steve and Levi hope you will enjoy the bright but relaxed atmosphere brought by their work.
