TRO Essex Music and Shamus Records at NERFA

Exciting news — two artists from the TRO Essex Music and Shamus Records roster will be featured at this year’s NERFA Conference, taking place November 6–9 in Albany, NY!

The NERFA Conference (Northeast Regional Folk Alliance) is one of the leading gatherings for the folk music community — connecting artists, industry professionals, and fans through showcases, panels, and community building

Flamy Grant will be one of this year’s Keynote Speakers! The award-winning drag performer and folk artist has gained national recognition for her bold storytelling, soulful songwriting, and empowering message of authenticity and self-acceptance.

Sam Robbins will also take the stage to perform! A singer-songwriter with a timeless folk-pop sound, Sam has been praised for his warm vocals and heartfelt lyricism. Sam’s music bridges classic and contemporary folk traditions.

We’re proud to support Flamy Grant and Sam Robbins at NERFA 2025 — be sure to catch them in Albany!
