Supported by: So What!

Consisting of Noah Gibney, Esteban Ruiz, and Dexter Sales, So What! met at various camps and events sponsored by Reading Musical Foundation and Berks Arts. Gibney and Sales first played together at a getJazzed summer camp in 2021, while Sales and Ruiz met in November of 2022 at a music workshop during Reading Blues Fest. The three began jamming together in January of 2023 at Gibney’s open mic and from there formed a group with their sights set on auditioning for the Chuck Loeb Memorial Jazz Scholarship. Since then, they’ve provided entertainment at numerous establishments throughout Berks, Lebanon, Lehigh, Northampton and Montgomery counties. They continue to perform together around southeastern Pennsylvania and beyond.
