Ayla Nereo, LŪKA, Brotha Jag

AYLA NEREO: aylanereo.com

“Ayla Nereo is a singer, composer, producer, dancer, and visual-poetry creator from the mountains of eastern California. Grown in forests and rivers, she is a bridger of the timeless and modern, weaving poetry and sound into a magical and emotional world of sonic beauty.

With a particular joy for bridging musical styles, Ayla’s songs seem a genre unto their own, as she moves between vocal looping, produced beats, live drumming, orchestral string arrangements, Celtic melodies, disco rhythms, electronic soundscapes, and even dashes of hip-hop wordplay. Lyrical meditations and riddles of language dance into wondrous tapestries of sound and story, from electronic folk ballads to celtic melodies and elvin loop-pedal mantras.

Having an uncanny ability to crack open the heart, Ayla’s songs are an ode to the wonder of being human, inviting us deeper into the exquisite and innately psychedelic dream of this moment.”

LŪKA www.lukamusik.com

“LŪKA writes songs of, and for, healing. Music that both feels rooted in the natural world, as well as shimmers with blips of the technological. This balance and contrast creates a sonic environment that is both nostalgic and forward looking, worn in and brand new. With moments that feel intimate and contained and moments that feel like they’re waiting on the collective for active participation.“

BROTHA JAG: soundcloud.com

“Brotha Jag (aka Isaac Williams) creates an immersive sonic experience that guides us both deeper into our heart and also wider into a connected and powerfully unified group. Being not only a DJ and producer, but also a dancer, he knows how to make a body move. His sets include an insatiable array of sounds and genres, from afro-house to disco, French house to funk, remixed oldies & classics to new original productions and collaborations, and much more. Brotha Jag plays music for the people. Music that empowers, uplifts, and takes us into realms of feeling through movement. Music that touches something real.”
