Description
Cyane is the project of Portland experimental composer/producer, harpist, and singer, Sage Fisher. Through the lens of mythological water nymph, Cyane, she explores the impossible betweens and shadows inhabited by femmes - both currently and throughout western colonialist history - and the immense power inherent in our bodies, our breaking, our healing, and our transformation. Honoring and bringing to light the hidden intricacies of this ancestral balancing act, Cyane draws on influences from early choral music, pop, electronica, avant classical and R&B for a performance that dances between disguise and exposé.
Helen Spencer-Wallace is a musician, dancer, and educator. She is haunted and beguiled by femininity, vulnerability, and avoidance in the role of the solo Western female pop singer. Her musical work messes with inconsistent and multiple selves, explicit deception, and plays in the overlap of experimental pop, drone, and noise. She is gratefully supported by her devoted studies in Western and Hindustani vocal music (in the Kirana Gharana lineage).
stephanie lavon trotter is a composer, vocal-instrument and performer. she loops and layers her voice through electro-acoustic open scores and improvisation, creating expansive, fantastical and grotesque sonic paintings. https://www.stephanielavontrotter.com
