About the band

Porterfield is an indie quartet that pushes the boundaries between singer-songwriter, rock, and jazz. The experimental instrumentation of vocals, guitar, synth bass, saxophone and fx, and drums creates a rich, dynamic sound.

Their EP ‘Live at Q’ was released in 2018, and their debut album ‘Rome’ in 2021. They have been nominated twice in a row for the Boston Music Awards’ Jazz Artist of the Year (2018 and 2019).

The band is led by Jacob Aviner (songwriter, guitar, vocals), with JP Goldman on synth bass, Jared Yee on tenor sax and FX, and Steve Bartashev the drumset.
