Join us as Audiofemme—a music publication that centers writing by women and non-binary journalists—celebrates the work of their Agenda grant cohorts four/four presents and Medusa in this showcase.
ABOUT THE SHOWCASE: Audiofemme created the Agenda Artist Grant in 2020, which provides seed funding of $2000 per grantee to interdisciplinary artists and creators, prioritizing BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities.
This showcase enables their past grantees to present the work they've created through the support of this funding. Devoted to forwarding emerging artists' work, Audiofemme is thrilled to present their inaugural showcase, including dance collaborations curated by four/four presents featuring LEYA x Omri Drumlevich and MIXTAPES – Kayla Farrish x Alex MacKinnon, as well as a film screening and album performance by Medusa.

About LEYA
LEYA, the NYC-based project of harpist Marilu Donovan and violinist/vocalist Adam Markiewicz, utilizes alternate tunings, operatic dream-state vocals, and strange harmonies to create a music language both unique and ancient-feeling. Their work has been presented within a myriad of live and digital contexts across music, media, fashion, and art and has been critically lauded as a paradox of beauty and horror.
