About the performers

Frank Ippolito is a multi-disciplinary artist and multi-instrumental musician who has called Jersey City his home for the last 10 years. He released his first music CD, The Watermark Project, in 2015. Ippolito’s work explores imagery derived from a lifelong career in the sciences as a thread woven deeply into the archetypal dreamscape.

J. Heloise performs as a singer-songwriter throughout the Jersey City and NYC area and has nearly completed her first studio album. She sees music making as a gift to be cherished and shared. She seeks to contribute to the rich cultural mix of American songwriting with carefully crafted moments of inspiration.. which echo in the space between deep feeling and comfort.

His unique voice carries a sultry soul baritone, and his extensive repertoire has blown away audiences for well over a decade. Benedicto Figueroa is a self taught writer, actor,
