Scott Rovner, Carrie Cantor, and Glen Coleman are seasoned and talented performers who exemplify the vibrant North Jersey music scene and epitomize the Folk Project community as a meeting place for local talent and springboard for aspiring and accomplished artists.
Artists can finally play together in a safe, vaccinated environment, and, in true Folk Project fashion, we’ll celebrate the long-lost ability and newfound joy of getting together by getting together and making music.
Scott Rovner has been crooning his way from the middle-ages right through to modern times by inspiring audiences with his resonant and meaningful baritone and an attention to detailed flat picking. His Scotty’s musical career includes the almost-famous “Summer Rhoades Band,” numerous performances at the famed Philadelphia Folk Festival, East Coast appearances at your friendly neighborhood folk venues, and co-leading our beloved Terrace Room Song Circle at The Folk Project’s Open Stage.
Carrie Cantor is an enchanting vocalist and a dynamic performer, known for her exquisite renditions of folk and pop songs, with the occasional high-powered rocker thrown in for musical excitement. She’s earned praise as a lead singer in a number of North Jersey music combos, as a precious gem in the Montclair music scene, and a local feature in area concert series and coffeehouses.
Glen Coleman can write a song a minute – he’s that prolific. The overwhelming spontaneity and joy he brings to every performance is maximum and infectious. With a smooth tenor, an accomplished guitar technique, and a passion for everyone and everything around him, this moving lyricist packs his songs with meaning and feelings. His signature style is one-of-a-kind, but his message of a life worth loving is universal. Glen is also a co-leader and shining star of The Folk Project Open Stage’s Terrace Room.
