Stephan Jolk returns to New York City on Saturday, December 21st, for a special rooftop set at Superior Ingredients—his only NYC show this winter.

Jolk, an Italian artist known for emotionally rich melodies and wide-reaching global sets, has built a strong presence through releases on Tale of Us’ Afterlife, including two standout albums. His music balances depth and atmosphere, drawing listeners in through carefully layered arrangements and refined production.

Over the past few years, he has performed in some of the most scenic venues in the world—from Ibiza’s Cava Santa to La Estacion in Cordoba, Club Space Miami, and the Brooklyn Mirage. His YouTube channel features full-length sets filmed in extraordinary locations like Zurich Airport and Isola dei Soffi in Sardinia, where visual storytelling plays a key role in the experience.

 (UPPERGROUND) and his collaboration with Monolink on 

 received strong support across the global electronic community. His remix of Jan Blomqvist ft. Malou for Armada Music further showed his range and attention to musical detail.

This rooftop show offers a rare chance to catch Jolk in a more intimate setting, set against the Manhattan skyline.

Doubleheader

Gray Area is pioneering the "Doubleheader" event series, drawing inspiration from back-to-back baseball games to showcase artists with similar styles but unique fan bases. By having one artist follow another and culminating in a collaborative back-to-back (B2B) set, Doubleheader aims to create a powerful platform for musical discovery and cross-pollination. Embracing the "B2B" spirit, the initiative seeks to introduce audiences to new sounds while strengthening the dance music ecosystem.

Night Tales

Gray Area's new venture, "Debut," aims to bridge the international house music community by bringing established and emerging artists to cities they've never performed in.
