Jean Rohe at UNLV, Singing Original Song 'Wait and See.'

On October 20, 2023, Jean Rohe visited the campus of UNLV and gave a talk on inspiration, process, and learning as a musician. She also graced us with her song 'Wait and See.' Jean was the winner of the Pamela Phillips Oland Excellence in the Art of Writing Lyrics Award. Of the $5,000 award Dean Nancy Uscher said: "This competition sought to develop and promote the craft of songwriting across the disciplines of music, theater, and dance. We are so pleased to steward this worthwhile endeavor within the College of Fine Arts, and we are so thrilled for Jean whose talent and creativity was much-deserving of this award." Brooklyn-based Rohe writes one-of-a-kind narrative songs, concerned as much with the interior lives of her narrators as with the wider world outside them. Jean recently won the 2022 Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk songwriting contest with her deeply personal and timely song “Animal”. Her latest full-length record as a bandleader, Sisterly, produced by longtime collaborator Liam Robinson, won best Adult Contemporary Album at the Independent Music Awards in 2019. Her writing and performance styles are the product of 20 years of experimentation and practice, learning on her feet as a side-person and bandleader in New York's wide-ranging music communities. “I grew up in a household where music-making and storytelling – far from a rarified vocation for prodigies and professionals – was an act woven into the social life of our family and friends, ” she says. “I carry that spirit with me into the music I make today.”
