About PIWA:

PIWA is an afro alternative artist here to make you move to the beat of her drum without fail when it comes to the rhythm and world she takes us with through her music; with her deep tones, clever wordplay, and undeniable stage presence, She stands as a Zimbo [ Zimbabwean ] rockstar to the core! From Zimbabwe, to the Bronx, to Dallas, and now Chicago, Piwa has paid homage to all the homes she has known while creating her own authentic flow that caters to the tales left to tell. She also pulls inspiration from artists such as 070 Shake, Doja Cat, Lauryn Hill, Andre 3000, Kanye and many more that have shown her the path through genre bending within the music scene.

ROTTEN is the second EP to be released by PIWA coming to listeners this spring, May 1st . This sonic experience is a 6-track EP that captures moments of stillness- “ these are times when I felt like I was breaking and witnessing it through a TV screen. Rotting is knowing you can conquer the world, but you sit and continue to sit. Within stillness, there is chaos in the mind; But through this, we learn that stillness isn’t emptiness; it’s a space where growth quietly takes root.” This project embraces the beauty that can emerge from life’s darkest, most stagnant moments, proving that even in decay, something new is always being born; anger based in fear is not a curse, it’s a hitlist waiting to be made.

Based out of the Ozark Mountains of Missouri, Dawson Hollow’s high energy performances offer supporting lyrics that carry a hopeful undertone.

About Susie McCollum:

With old soul vulnerability and a rich vocal palette, indie artist Susie McCollum lives at the intersection of raw emotion and refined craft. Originally from New York City and now based in Chicago, McCollum blends timeless songwriting with a contemporary edge - drawing inspiration from artists like Joni Mitchell, Norah Jones, and Amy Winehouse.

A lifelong student of music, McCollum’s journey spans opera, theater, jazz, R&B, & folk -  providing an eclectic background that informs her textured, authentic sound. Her mesmerizing and poetic lyricism is fueled by compassion, wit, and an insatiable curiosity about the human experience. Susie is also a self-taught guitarist - a pandemic hobby turned renewed sense of artistic purpose.

Susie arrived on the scene with the celebrated single  “New Year’s Eve” in 2022, praised by A&R Factory as a “part-love song, part-indie-soulful ode to bittersweet tradition.” Her 2024 debut EP Tempt My Fate captivated audiences as "stirring and uniquely powerful” (CLOUT Magazine) for its soulful vocal and poignant songwriting. She has worked alongside artists like Christopher, Nep, and Marielle Kraft, while most recently co-writing “I Should Lose You” with indie-pop artist Jenny Kern. In addition to singing, writing, and producing, Susie has also honed her skills as a recording engineer - enabling her to truly inhabit every layer of the creative process.

Susie released her highly anticipated single “Abigail” on October 24th, whose "dreamy hush works medicinally; it doesn’t push catharsis, it coaxes it" (Uranium Waves). The work is fueled by finding a home within oneself and asking: what does it mean to truly grow up… and do we ever? 

Through heartfelt melodies and soul-stirring lyrics, Susie invites listeners into a shared space of introspection and re-invention - marking her a singular and invaluable talent in today’s music scene.

About Lilla Sol:

Lilla Sol is a Chicago-based sister duo that creates genre blending music rooted in storytelling. For these sisters, music is a means of cathartic expression; a key to deeper understanding of both personal and shared experiences. Their sound explores sonic realms that include piano, synth, cello, guitar, and lush vocal harmonies.

About Manasseh:

Manasseh is a Chicago South Side-born vocalist, songwriter, arranger, and creative director whose work bridges soul, R&B, jazz, and cinematic soundscapes. Raised in the church and influenced early on by his mother—a gifted vocalist—his musical foundation was shaped through years of choir singing, which continues to inform his emotive, technically precise vocal approach.

Currently working as a vocal/session coach, background vocalist, songwriter, and music supervisor, Manasseh is widely regarded as a trusted collaborator and “go-to” creative for artists across genres. His work has appeared in major cultural spaces and media outlets, including the Chicago Tribune, EarMilk, and Ambient Vibez. His song “Inches” was featured on Tyler Perry’s BET hit series Sistas (Season 2, Episode 4).

In addition to his work as a recording and performing artist, Manasseh served as Music Supervisor for the short film Take 290, further expanding his footprint in visual media and narrative-driven sound design.

Manasseh has toured and collaborated with Grammy-nominated jazz trumpeter Marquis Hill, contributed vocals to Composers Collective: Beyond the Jukebox, and joined international pop star JoJo on her Too Much To Say Tour and at the Taste of Chicago. He has also served as music supervisor for the short film Take 290, created original programming for Malcolm X College, and regularly headlines shows and high-end corporate events nationwide.

His debut album Monochromatic Dream was released in 2022, followed by EPs including Variations V1 – I’ll Be. His forthcoming album, R&B[eyond], arrives Spring 2026 and is already earning early praise, signaling a bold next chapter in his evolving artistic vision.

About Moyana:

MOYANA makes music that makes a difference. In the face of historical erasure, she creates an accessible living archive for her listeners through intentional lyrics and blending of R&B, hip-hop, and jazz.

In 2025, she released her debut album PTCHWRK, produced by 7VNTH, which was recognized by the Chicago Tribune, These Days Magazine, Vocalo, and the Chicago Reader. Her awards include the 3Arts Make-a-Wave Grant, the Black Music Action Coalition’s Victoria Monet x Music Maker Grant, the CITIBank LGBTQ+ Emerging Artist Award, the Recording Academy Quinn Coleman Scholarship, and the John Walt Foundation Young Artist Scholarship.

She currently serves on the board of the John Walt Foundation and is a voting member of the Recording Academy’s Chicago Chapter.

MOYANA works as a music educator with Chicago Opera Theater and the Lyric Opera of Chicago to uplift the next generation of artists, and offers private vocal coaching for performing professionals.

About:

Ellie Rui 瑞 is a Chicago-based jazz drummer from Columbus, Ohio. She moved to Chicago shortly after graduating from the Oberlin Conservatory of Music in the Spring of 2024. At Oberlin, Rui 瑞 studied with NEA Jazz Master Billy Hart for all 4 years. 

Her compositions can be characterized by her percussive approach, even when writing for other instruments. She generally follows a jazz form but her chord changes and rhythms are intentionally non-standard. In her performances, she often shares parts of her life story in the hope of bringing people together. Rui 瑞 likes to be around musicians other people that remind her of the kind of human being she wants to be. 

Notable performances by Rui 瑞 since moving to Chicago include: recording with Pulitzer Prize winner, Susie Ibarra, as a member of Ibarra’s CHAN Percussion Ensemble; playing with Colin Heshmat and Emma Dayhuff at Merriman’s Playhouse in South Bend, IN; playing with Chicago-based artist Elysia Marie as a member of her band; playing music at Holy Ground Sessions at Healthy Hood Chicago; and doing a feature set with her group The Ellie Rui 瑞 Ensemble for Millie Ahearn’s Jam Session, and again on a Saturday evening at Clara.

Rui 瑞’s upcoming projects include releasing her first album next year, recording her second album this winter, and continuing to work with her ensembles and bands in Chicago!
