Jocelyn Rose

Founder and Creative Director

Jocelyn Rose is a Brooklyn-based jazz artist, GRAMMY Award-nominated producer, and archival remix strategist whose creative practice is rooted in sound archives. As a performer and composer, she draws deeply from jazz traditions—an evolving, improvisational art form built on reinterpretation, dialogue, and lineage—which has shaped her broader approach to storytelling and creative remix.

As a vocalist, Jocelyn has performed at venues including the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Blue Note, Rockwood Music Hall, SOFAR Sounds, The Bitter End, and Cat’s Cradle, and has been invited to share the stage with Richie Havens, The Persuasions, Deb Talon, Saniye, Ember Swift, and Brooklyn Raga Massive. Her acclaimed album Heliotrope, recorded at the legendary Magic Shop Studio, features collaborations with Soul Inscribed, jazz pianist Geri Allen, and blues and jazz vocalist Barbara Dane, and reflects her ongoing exploration of American roots music and intergenerational creative exchange.

Alongside her work as an artist, Jocelyn is a GRAMMY Award-nominated catalog storytelling producer, two-time GRAMMY Foundation Grant recipient, ASCAP Deems Taylor Award winner, voting member of the Recording Academy, and member of the Producers & Engineers Wing.  This musical foundation informs her work as the founder of Studio Arbo, where she leads multimedia projects that reimagine cultural history through archival storytelling, catalog transformation, and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
