Violinist, composer and improviser Jackie An (they/them) was born and raised on the unceded land of the Pueblos (Albuquerque, New Mexico) and now resides on the ancestral lands of the Duwamish (Seattle, Washington). Jackie accompanies their audience through the themes of life, death, horror and delight through the lyrical voice of the violin. Textures created through a collection of guitar pedals are used to stir the subconsious of the listener and act as an auditory soundscape that reveals inner narratives.

María Dolores A. Matienzo is a composer, poet, and archivist living on Duwamish land. Her recent works explore ritual, sensory experience, immaterial labor, and memory and memorialization. She has performed experimental music for over 20 years under her own name and as Black Tent and maría de los dolores. She publishes her work on her imprint, Imprecision Art. Her work has also been published by Travesties?!, Fantômes, and American Tapes. she’s buoyant, her first score for ensemble performance, premiered in October 2024 at at Base: Experimental Arts & Space in South Seattle.
