Rosa Joe Jacobs

Rosa Joe Jacobs is a Brooklyn-bred, Boston-based songwriter and musician.  Rosas songs draw from folk traditions, but she feels  far less interested in fitting within genre boundaries, and more devoted to creating music that makes people feel connected. Connected to themselves, to each other, and to something larger.  Rosa is also working on her debut project, a collection of original songs recorded at  the The Bungaleau in Eau Claire, WI and at Q Division Studios In Somerville, MA. The Record is set to release in 2027.

Rosa has played venues such as; Grey Fox Bluegrass festival, Arrow Street Arts, The Red Room, IBMA world of bluegrass, Three Sisters Bluegrass festival, Club Passim and The Berklee Performance Center. 
 

Jacobs didn’t grow up in a traditional folk music household. She fell in love with the genre as a young adult, witnessing and becoming a part of deep, living folk music communities of New England. Above all else, a sense of music as something always communal and alive is at the heartbeat of her songwriting.
 With her debut project on the horizon, Rosa Joe is constantly writing and create new works, always reaching for the threads that tie us to ourselves and to each other.
