Performers


Shawnee DezShawnee Dez

From Chicago’s South Side, music artist Shawnee Dez intently engages her audience, encouraging energy exchanges first and foremost. Dez is concerned with ancestral knowledge and performance as an opportunity to channel and communicate with the past and future. In her debut album MOODY UMBRA (2023), Dez explores their music range playing with heavy use of harmonic layering, a fusion of live instrumentation and digital production, and her dynamic multi-ranged alto melodic voice, creating the perfect dreamscape. Honing her craft alongside luminaries, Shawnee Dez has collaborated with artists such as Eddie Burns, Nico Segal, and Femdot. Her journey also includes performances as the opening act for acclaimed figures like Teedra Moses, Olivia Dean, and others. In the company of musical titans, Shawnee's artistry continues to evolve, leaving an indelible mark on the tapestry of contemporary sound. When off the stage, Shawnee’s work centers youth and community advocacy. She activates spaces for creative youth to express unapologetically. In June 2020, Shawnee organized a mass Juneteenth Black JoyRide bike ride, a critical mass demonstration through Chicago’s Metropolitan area. This ride was birthed as a symbol of liberation and mobility, during a time when many were heavily limited by the horrifying effects of two pandemics: systemic racism and COVID-19.

Rudy De AndaRudy De Anda

Born in Mexico and brought to California, Rudy De Anda’s debut solo album, “Tender Epoch” (2020) is a love letter to the long historical lineage of rock ‘n’ roll music interpreted through his multicultural lens. Record has called his sound “deliberately difficult to categorize, familiar but novel at the same time.”
