Live at the Barracks 2025: Joe Rogerson

ArtHouse Jersey is proud to announce the return of its much-loved Live at the Barracks music series, now bolstered by a new partnership with Oakglen Wealth as headline sponsor.

This year’s series shines a spotlight on emerging and locally cherished talent, set against the intimate and atmospheric backdrop of the historic barracks at Greve de Lecq, ArtHouse Jersey’s HQ. Each performance in the series embraces a stripped-back, acoustic approach, with artists sharing stories behind their songs and creative process, offering audiences a rare and personal connection to the music.

Born and raised in Jersey, Joe Rogerson is a self-taught guitarist and singer-songwriter whose music carries the raw edge and anthemic energy of 90s Britpop.

Influenced by iconic bands like The Beatles, Oasis, and The Stone Roses, Joe made his mark locally as frontman of the beloved early-2000s band The Dirty Trades. His solo work retains the spirit of rebellion and honesty that defined that era, but it’s now tempered with warmth, humour, and a connection to  community. With his gritty vocals and emotionally charged acoustic guitar work, Joe’s Live at the Barracks performance promises both nostalgia and newness, a powerful reminder of the enduring power of local talent.

Director of ArtHouse Jersey, Tom Dingle, said: “We’re thrilled to be bringing Live at the Barracks back with the support of Oakglen Wealth. This series creates space for artists to connect with audiences in an honest, stripped-back way, and having Emily Faye open the season sets the tone beautifully. It’s about storytelling, emotion and sharing creativity in a truly special setting.”

Managing Director of Oakglen Wealth Jersey, Allan Stewart, said:  “We’re incredibly proud to partner with ArtHouse Jersey as headline sponsor of Live at the Barracks 2025. At Oakglen Wealth, we believe in supporting the communities we serve and nurturing the creative spirit that makes Jersey such a vibrant place to live and work.”

Investment Director of Oakglen Wealth Jersey, Michael Clarke, added: “This series offers something truly special — a chance to experience authentic and emerging talent in an intimate setting that celebrates artistry and connection. We’re thrilled to help bring these powerful performances to life and look forward to an unforgettable series of music.”
