Jerry & The Jerks (Dino Bevilacqua, Joseph Anthony Cañas, Jerome Herrera, and Steve Tocchini) is a fun outlet for the members to jam their wide repertoire of tunes in an explorative fashion. They use their strong background in the musical style of the Grateful Dead to create medleys and spacey jams out of lovable rock n’ roll songs through the decades.
Jerry & The Jerks often surprise not only the audience, but also themselves as they are never afraid to take a risk.
Our songs bask in the wisdom of the REDWOOD and lurk within the strength of CHROME. Lend us your ears as we forge ahead with our rambunctious bludgeon of sound
