Charles Joseph Smith (piano and drums) and Angel Bat Dawid (piano, clarinet, and voice/ spoken word) perform as a duo. The performance is inspired by the Mothership 9 performance on October 2019 of Charles and Angel at Elastic Arts Foundation, in a style of a series of creative improvisations.

Marvin Tate & Johanna Brock

Marvin Tate lives in the northwest community of Avondale. As a multidisciplinary artist, he has worn many hats, often combining and interchanging vocals and spoken word in an improvisational likeness to small and large ensembles.

The piece is titled America the Blue
