Ensemble

Dash leads the ensemble as Virtual Perfection Cowboy (VPC), the project he started solo and grew into a band. He writes the music, plays guitar, flutes and sampler, and builds the browser-based visual instruments the band plays inside.

A Paris-based French singer and electronic producer with ethereal vocals over dark, organic beats. Alexia sings the vocal textures on Life Is a Strange Loop, and with the ensemble when it plays in Europe.

A New York violist, composer and improviser who plays electric viola through a rack of effects. In his other life he’s a designer and type designer, including years drawing the plug-ins and pedals at Eventide Audio.

A flutist and singer whose own sets move between soul, Black spirituals and meditative improvisation over live-looped beats. Has worked with Solange, duendita and Joy Guidry, and plays with and composes for the queer and trans salsa band Las Mariquitas.

A New York composer, producer and drummer from the city’s jazz and underground scenes, behind the projects zbeeez and the jazz/hip-hop collective poetic thrust. Also the drummer in Kelsey Lu’s band.

Kacie dances in wearable percussion with custom movement tracking, so the way she moves goes straight into the sound and the visuals. She choreographed and performed the 32-minute film for Life Is a Strange Loop.

A New York singer-songwriter from Boston, working between indie, soul and jazz, and formerly a singer in the band Couch. Ella sings with the ensemble at its US shows.
