Hugh Blumenfeld -- Hugh says of the Postcrypt, "I love this place! When I play in the city these days (which I don't), this is where I want to be doing it (which I do)."
5 Chinese Brothers -- This popular New York band features several Columbia alums. If you ever had doubts about the real-life applications of the Core Curriculum, this band's original songs are perfect examples.
Michael Jerling -- A winner of the New Folk competition at 1993's Kerrville Folk Festival, Michael is a singer-songwriter originally from Saratoga Springs, NY. He has two albums out on the Shanachie label, and he also appeared on 1992's Fast Folk Live at the Postcrypt Coffeehouse compact disc.
Sarah Nagourney -- Sarah presents her brand of textural art-pop in her debut at the Postcrypt. She's also probably the first singer-songwriter to have her gigs listed on the society page of the New York Times.

Richard Julian -- Richard Julian's music covers a wide range of influences, but keeps in the tradition of well-crafted songs with smart lyrics and real melodies.

Long a Postcrypt favorite, he relocated to Boston in 1990, but we finally convinced him to make his return to our stage.
Jim Infantino -- Jim gives an edgy, bizarre performance, neighboring on comedy but not satire. He also designed the cover for the Postcrypt Commemorating 30 Years compact disc. He also wears a really big pair of pants.
Quay & O'Conor -- Acoustic duo Heather Quay and Lyn O'Conor have a rare chemistry on stage that only thirteen years of friendship can create. Their songs tell stories of love lost, Catholic girls' school, and philandering relatives...
