Drumspyder
Brings a deep love of rhythm to his distinctive style of percussion-driven dance music. An expert percussionist specializing in tambourines and frame-drums, he weaves together intricate hand percussion and bass-heavy production into finely sculpted grooves, equally inspirational to the dancefloor and the on-stage performer.
Drawing influences from the Folk, Medieval, and Renaissance music of the British Islands and Europe, his music is a unique alchemy of musical traditions, energetic tribal rhythms, and archaic atmosphere.

Water Eye
Channels divine imagination with the potency of her voice and presence. She is an improv-phetical oracle able to weave intricate lyrics, live in the moment; creating soundscapes out of live looping and layering instruments and vocals. Her music transcends the borders of genre; integrating aspects of ambient, experimental, soul folk to down tempo, and jazzy hip hop. Her soaring vocals inspire healing tears, laughter and palpable holy heart centered presence.

Sonya Robin
Is gratefully nestled into a web of relations as a queer afro-caribbean femme devoted to stewarding diasporic lineage connection through art and ceremony.
Sonya has been an apprentice to sound for over 20 years. Their music practice centers Earth and ancestral wisdoms. In addition to original music featuring guitar & voice, Sonya studies lineage instruments such as the Japanese Koto and West African percussion. As a devotee of art that exists for the present moment, she is unrecorded.

Live Art with Oksana Kotok
The artwork I create is a direct representation of the current state of my emotional body. I prefer to make art that is deeply meaningful and to reflect my own personal insights in a way that is universally understood. My goal is to make your innermost self, the you that is underneath all of the layers, feel heard. I work as a painter, sculptor, and fiber artist.”
