Our very own barista, Joe Larkin, serves a lovely cup of coffee and also writes and sings his own music.

Joe Larkin began singing and playing guitar at an early age, inspired by his musician father. In high school, he was a four-time member of the CJMEA Regional Honors Choir, and a two-time member of the NJMEA All-State choir. He attended college at William Paterson University on a talent scholarship, where he completed a bachelor of music degree in audio engineering, and studied voice. He began recording his first album, Helianthus, in September 2018, due for release soon. His favorite songwriters are Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, and Mark Kozelek.

This month, Joe Larkin shares his music with us here at Penstock. Come out for an evening in the shop with friends to enjoy sipping and song.
