Two Tributes to Jack Rose

February 26, 2010 – 3:32 pm

Jack Rose was a vibrant and compelling musical force to those who knew and heard his music. After making his mark as a member of the Virginian experimental group Pelt in the ’90s, Rose moved to Philadelphia in the late ’90s, where he truly came into his own as a solo artist. Rose’s compositions and improvisations for guitar are expansive and daring, rooted in a tradition of American avant-garde music that includes Charles Ives, Skip James and John Fahey.
