Storm the Ohio

About Me

Seemingly out of nowhere, Storm the Ohio have emerged as quite a force among the local music scene here in the valley. With a completely beautiful and utterly heartbreaking debut album scheduled to be released this spring , Storm the Ohio have already managed to capture a strong local following. Founder and singer/songwriter Jerry Brookman cut his teeth in bands before moving to the valley and forming Storm the Ohio in 2006. Brookman had been collecting images and stories as he moved around New England from town to town until ending up here in Easthampton, Ma. Now Brookman settled in to make the music he had been dreaming of his whole life.......truly timeless songs. Look for the new record scheduled to be released this summer on Quiet Union Records.
