Derrick Allard is sound artist that utilizes field recordings, mundane objects, detritus and naively played instruments to explore acoustic sounds inherent spiritual and aesthetic value outside of the confines of music
Kevin Corcoran is a percussionist based in San Francisco, California. He is focused on techniques which extend the sonic range of the drum by emphasizing texture, friction, sympathetic vibration, sustained tones and the use of found objects, often augmenting these sounds with location recordings, amplification, and feedback. Working with musicians, dancers, writers, and visual artists, improvisation and collaboration are crucial aspects of his practice.
Captainmcsweeney and Domi met in 2012 on tour with a punk Americana stomp band in a bus called Rosa. Based in Oakland, Ca, the duo reconnected in 2024 and began a collaboration unfolding through an ongoing dialogue between movement and sound, playing with the boundaries between inner and outer experience, musician and dancer, self and other, performer and audience, and all the variations between these dualities, while carefully holding sensuality as a way of returning to the body. Performance becomes a space of re-sensitization and a ritual of remembering aliveness and honoring presence.
Fraufraulein, the SF duo of Billy Gomberg and Andy Guthrie, are master world builders. Their work is immersive - it wraps around you like a warm coat, guiding you into a deep trance-like state. Time moves in slow circles, folds in on itself, and unspools like caught fishing line. Their music reflects a truth that we all share in some way. It’s the pauses between thoughts, the little observations that color a day, the beauty of how others’ lives imbricate for brief moments before pulling apart.
