About the performers:
Popebama is a New York-based experimental duo that focuses on exciting performances of unconventional works. Described as “Noisily Virtuosic” (clevelandclassical.com), Erin Rogers (saxophone) and Dennis Sullivan (percussion) are composer-performers who apply text, electronics, and high-energy instrumental writing to freshly-squeezed sounds.
Heather Mease & Jordan Perry

Becky Brown is a composer, harpist, artist, and web designer, interested in producing intensely personal works across the multimedia spectrum. She focuses on narrative, emotional exposure, and catharsis, with a vested interest in using technology and the voice to deeply connect with an audience, wherever they are. Some of her works don’t need to mean anything at all. She is currently a doctoral student in Composition and Computer Technologies at the University of Virginia.
Trash Cats – Experimental duo of Kittie Cooper and Alex Christie play lots of things with wires, knobs and strings.
