Singer/Songwriter Jack Licitra wanted to try a fresh approach to folk and roots music by taking down some musical walls and watching what happens.

Welcome to Jack’s Waterfall

I have been a performing musician for many years and have used the name Jack’s Waterfall since 1998 to reflect a vision of an ever-changing ensemble that would enable me to pursue a variety of creative forms. I have been fortunate enough to collaborate with an exceptional diversity of players and genres expressing sounds and emotions I had never imagined possible!

As the years have flown by I have found myself drawn to a seemingly endless array of musics – from all the American “roots” musics (blues, jazz, folk, country) to the ever-increasing colors of music from around the globe.I have discovered that music has transformative qualities – it can facilitate healing, promote unity and certainly express powerful feelings. In my own life it has helped me deal with loss and the passage of time.I believe that the magic of art is its ability to transform the everyday into something greater, something universal, something shared.

I welcome your communication via the Great Poem section of this website and I hope the other sections will give you support and assistance. The Live Calendar will give you the Jack’s Waterfall itinerary in the hopes that you’ll be able to come hear live music and participate in the communality of music in a direct fashion. I believe that through the spirit of music we can make the world better.

Peace,
Jack
