Kalliope Jones

Kalliope Jones (Isabella DeHerdt, Wes Chalfant, and Alouette Batteau) is a post-rock power trio from Western Massachusetts. Originally a folk-rock group, Kalliope Jones was formed in 2012 at the Institute for the Musical Arts (IMA) in Goshen MA and has since developed its soundscape to bend gender-genre-genius from r&b, pop punk, and alt indie. Kalliope Jones has woven three unique songwriting styles into a fusion that fabricates the fibers of cosmological being. Through confession and collaboration, the band has made its way to the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, the Iron Horse Music Hall, the Wolftrap Center for Performing Arts, Club Passim, and most recently, Dar Williams’ River Roads Festival, where Kalliope Jones played alongside the likes of Amy Ray, Shawn Colvin, and Lisa Loeb.

Kalliope Jones’ ever-heightening anti-solipsistic sophistication is representative of wisdom beyond their years and no sign of slowing down. Catch them at The Green River Festival this summer!
