Mike Herz

With an uncanny ability to turn a phrase with lyrics that rattle around in your head, New Jersey folk singer Mike Herz writes and performs in a style that is all his own. An aspiring poet long before picking up a guitar, Herz quickly came to the realization that his words could enter more ears if put to a tune. Flash forward years and many miles later and Mike feels most comfortable on stage in front of complete strangers. Music has brought him across this great nation and into spellbound evenings in some of the best listening rooms around. His debut album "Overgrown" was released in 2013, duo album "Closer to Home" in 2015 and his follow up solo album "The Acrobat" was released in January 2017.

His songwriting has received some high praise as he was a winner of the NJ Folk Festival Songwriting Competition, an Emerging Artist at Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and a Showcase Finalist at the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival in Lyons, CO. His March 16th, 2018 performance at Rockwood Stage 3 will be a special Birthday Bash Celebration. Herz will be accompanied by a full band, reinventing past songs and previewing new material off his next full length album. Don't miss it.
