Mary Lambert: marylambertsings.com
I like to sing and write songs and poems and dance (badly).
I’m probably most known for being the fat crying lady who sang and wrote “Same Love”, but that’s incredibly reductive.
I also cry at Trader Joe’s and the Post Office and in the shower.
I talk about things that are uncomfortable in my work because shame likes to hide in things that are uncomfortable,
and I believe that shame is the thief of joy.
I do lots of different things because I’m clinically insane and feel like nothing is ever good enough! Neat!
If you want to see what I’m up to and follow the progress of my album, join me on my Patreon!

Truly, honestly, whoever you are, I love you. I’m grateful you’re alive.

Molly Sides
"...a born and raised Blaine County (Idaho) artist; dance and movement are in her DNA. While her lure to the arts is genetic, her range of talent manifested in Sun Valley ID. After spending her childhood playing “fairies” in the Sawtooth forests and writing songs with sticks into rocky mountain dirt, Sides owes much of her creative approach to art to her relationship with Sun Valley’s landscape.
“I feel so connected to that place, to the water and the mountains and the plants. Having space to cultivate your inner imagination was huge for me,” Sides says. “A lot of what I do through movement and music is connected to mother nature, to the source, to the elements.”
A true entertainer, Molly Sides brings a distinctive spirit to the stage.
Today, Sides is a Seattle-based Sound, Movement and Film artist, a Pilates teacher and a birthing doula with training as a death and bereavement doula. Despite juggling a breadth of disciplines, Sides intertwines her talents on the stage by sealing them on the foundation of movement. Her presence for new chapters and transitions of life and loss ground the interconnection of her talents, and her curiosity to learn pushes her to new skills. Molly fronts the band Thunderpussy and performs in other projects around the city. "

Kaylee Cole (w/ Mikey Gervais): kayleecole.com
Kaylee is a musician, holistic film and event producer, and music supervisor based in Seattle, Washington.
Born in the Skagit Valley in the state of Washington, Kaylee’s upbringing in the woods and clear wateres of the Pacific Northwest, combined with her professional background in the music industry (songwriting, producing, performing), have led her to lending those skills to events and film sets around the world. Injecting whole food cooking, astrological and nature-based guidance, and whole body wellness into every production, Kaylee’s holistic approach has revolutionized the energetic frequency on projects including documentary and feature films, music videos and commercial endeavors.
As a musician, Kaylee found her voice, her songs and her passion for playing after an intense car accident in college. Her origin story is more Marvel comic than real life. In the accident, the radio knobs punctured her leg and activated an ancient voice within her, songs that were waiting to come to the surface. Much like Spider Man, bit by the spider, she operates under the mantra that, “with great power, comes great responsibility”. Kaylee considers herself to be a song keeper and takes this role seriously seeing it as a joy and a responsibility. Recognizing the profound healing power of music, her intention in every song and performance is to spill her guts onstage so that the audience can find a piece of their own truth with her. She has shared the stage with The Lumineers, The Head and the Heart, and Damien Jurado. Collaborating with TV on the Radio, Hey Marseilles, Pickwick, Widower, Nick Jaina and many more.

Jana Gering: leafbyjana.com
"Art is not just a thing to sell or a decoration to fill space. Art is a way of taking care, a way of noticing what is precious to me and you, a way of honoring moments and lights, places and feelings. It is a way of being present, which is really the best way I know of to take care of people.
I am a mixed-media artist, working primarily in encaustic, watercolors, and acrylic paints. I play and explore with many other media, including photography, and I usually have a day job or two or three.
Whether I’m teaching workshops, making art, doing research, sketching, bringing envelopes to the post office, it’s that goal of being awake to that moment that drives me."
