MEET THE BAND

Judson Mantz is a guitarist, singer and songwriter. He’s the primary creative force behind the band August Room. He was also a member of 3D Betty. Mantz has spent decades in the State College music scene, playing clubs, theaters and festivals.

 

 

Lynn Chaplin has been a force to be reckoned with since the 1980s, when she played bass for seminal State College band The Earthtones. Along with Mantz, she was also in 3D Betty and is currently a member of August Room.

 

 

Saxophonist and percussionist Jason Crane is a recent transplant to State College, though he did live here briefly in the mid-90s, playing with The Earthtones and Urban Fusion. Crane regularly performs with Eric Ian Farmer, and has played around the US and Japan in a variety of groups.
