About Frost Children:
For Angel and Lulu Prost, the sibling duo behind Frost Children, home has always sounded like dance music. The St. Louis-born musicians grew up steeped in the sleek catharsis of golden-age EDM: huddling over YouTube videos of 2010s festival staples like Zedd, Skrillex, and Krewella; watching rapt as Virtual Riot commanded a headline show at their neighborhood outdoor amphitheater; digging through their eldest brother’s dubstep collection. The duo’s third album SISTER, out September 12th via True Panther/Dirty Hit, is an exhilarating return to those first sounds that moved them, echoing with the reverence and refinement of two formidable artists crafting exactly what they want to hear. But it’s also a striking portrait of Frost Children’s singular creative partnership: as bandmates, as roommates, as symbiotic savants practicing the art of what Angel calls “twin telepathy.” Boldly revitalizing and revolutionizing a too-often- devalued subgenre, Frost Children have delivered their most forthright and full-bodied identity statement yet. As Lulu puts it: "This is so confidently what we love, and what we breathe.”
Melding the sensitivity and songcraft of Hearth Room with the propulsive power of SPEED RUN, SISTER puts forward an arrestingly personal vision for modern dance music that transcends nostalgia and trend-chasing. Delicately weaving strains of emo, electro, and pure pop, Frost Children explore close-to-home themes of co-dependence, consistency, and change, exemplified by the roaring refrain on lead single “CONTROL”: “Tell me the way to live / I’m falling apart.” For all the uncertainty of thrilling anthems, SISTER pulses with the electric energy of two artists confidently reveling in their element.
About Ninajirachi:
Ninajirachi is raising the flag for a new generation of Australian artists on the international stage. From festival appearances at Coachella, Lollapalooza, Laneway, and Spilt Milk to sold-out headline shows on both sides of the Pacific, she has quickly become one of electronic music’s most electrifying new voices. With a sound and style “simultaneously garnering respect from the experimental underground and the mainstream” (Rolling Stone), Nina has been tapped by Nike, Sega, and even Ableton, who selected her to produce the official demo project for Ableton Live.
Nina’s evolution is best captured in the transformation of her childhood inspirations into career allies. Artists such as Charli XCX, Porter Robinson, and Cashmere Cat have gone from influences to touring partners, while Skrillex and SOPHIE have become recurring points of comparison - with Billboard declaring Ninajirachi “the female equivalent of Scary Monsters-era Skrillex.”
Raised on Australia’s Central Coast, Nina remains rooted in curiosity and experimentalism, continually spotlighting emerging artists from the furthest corners of the internet through her DJ sets, collaborations, and her annual headline event, Dark Crystal. Launched in 2022, Dark Crystal is Nina’s dream festival, brought to life - a showcase for unique and developing artists across diverse genres and niches. With the 2025 edition selling out months in advance, Dark Crystal has become a touchstone of Australia’s electronic underground community
About Umru:
Through wide-reaching collaborations with the likes of Laura Les, Tommy Cash, Empress Of & Caroline Polachek, a producer-staple sample pack series, and a kinetic, CDJ-defying mixing style that has launched him into a constant international DJ circuit, his strength in joining earworm songwriting with distorted sonic maximalism has become a defining influence on the cutting edge between underground and popular music. In 2025, he released his first EP on Scottish label LUCKYME®, a single with underscores, and production and remixes for names like Danny Brown, Cortisa Star, and Ninajirachi.

About Rogue Fashion Show:
Rogue is the third official fashion experience presented by Raeted R Creative Co., building on the foundation of Planet R and the evolution of Retrograde. This next chapter moves beyond reflection and into rebellion. Challenging convention, disrupting norms, and redefining the boundaries of fashion as both art and resistance. Rooted in punk energy, digital futurism, and unapologetic individuality, Rogue invites attendees into a space where identity is self-defined, and creativity exists without permission.
Curated by Raven Smith, Founder of Raeted R Creative Co. and the community-driven brand Straight From The Go, the show reflects her continued commitment to storytelling, cultural impact, and creating platforms that center emerging voices. As a multidisciplinary creative, Raven uses each experience to build immersive environments where fashion becomes a language. One that speaks to freedom, transformation, and the power of going against the grain.
More than a runway show, Rogue is a statement. It is a curated moment that brings together designers, artists, and creatives who exist outside of traditional systems. Those who challenge expectations and create from a place of authenticity and disruption. Through bold design, immersive energy, and a fearless approach to expression, Rogue captures fashion in its most unfiltered form: raw, evolving, and entirely its own.

About:
Afro Dead is a musical collective formed in 2022 by Aaron Feder to reimagine the music of the Grateful Dead in Afro-Pop styles, such as soukous, Afrobeat, high-life, reggae and more. He has been able to use his experience as founder and band leader of Alma Afrobeat Ensemble (four albums, four US tours) and co-founder of the record label Slow Walk Music (home to African music made in Spain) resulting in a Summer 2024 tour of the US and Canada, and a Fall 2024 tour of Spain.
For 2026 the band will feature the amazing singer London Kay, most known for touring with Heart and the internationally touring Grateful Dead act Terrapin Flyer.
Aaron Feder has been a lifelong participant in the Grateful Dead’s music scene, having played and recorded with Grammy award winners Peter Rowan and Eric Krasno, as well as members of Phil Lesh and Friends, Greensky Bluegrass, Leftover Salmon, Everyone Orchestra and much more. Aaron’s varied musical experiences has helped create a vibrant, one-of-a-kind musical project, mixing classic Americana compositions with danceable African grooves and a healthy dose of improvisation.
The band’s version of Dark Star was featured on the compilation “The Music Plays the Band” alongside Dark Star Orchestra, Oteil Burbridge, ALO and many more.
Josh Olken (Terrapin Flyer) who has recently played with Al Dimeola and Derek Trucks, will be joining Afro Dead for this special show. Aaron and Josh have played many shows together, and bring an even more special flavor to this concert, combining their two unique interpretations of Jerry Garcia's six string legacy into a version of the Dead's songs you never expected!

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.

About Jade Maze:
Jade Maze mixes soul, jazz, blues, and pop into one big heartfelt voice. She started out with soul and jazz bands on the West Coast, toured with her original band on the East Coast, and made Chicago her home in the mid-90s, where she foraged her way onto the blues and jazz scenes. She loves the intimacy of duo work as well, especially with guitar, bass, or piano.
Jade also happens to be an award-winning author. Her debut memoir, Walk Until Sunrise, took a first-place world literary prize (Rome), and the follow-up memoir entitled Mercy’s View: Blackout won a 2025 Best Book Pinnacle Achievement Award. The memoirs chronicle her teenage runaway experience, her reentry into society, and the beginning stages of her singing career. To offset the intensity of that work, Jade writes short stories where at least one of the story characters is a singer (Music Notes: Tales from an American Singer).
About Larry Brown Jr.:
Larry Brown Jr. is a Kennedy Center Jazz Ahead alumnus and has toured nationally and internationally as a composer/arranger as well as a bandleader. Brown co-leads the acclaimed Chicago Soul Jazz Collective. He has released two records of original compositions (There Can Only Be One; The Music & The Moment). His playing and charisma also landed him a role in the hit television series EMPIRE where he played recording artist Snoop Dogg’s lead guitar player. Brown has performed at some of the country’s greatest jazz festivals and venues, including the St. Louis Jazz Festival, the Clark Terry Jazz Festival, the JVC Jazz Festival (New York), Lima Jazz Festival (South America), as well as Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola. Additionally, he has performed with Hamiet Bluiett, Louie Bellson, Lew Soloff, Benny Golson, and Curtis Fuller.

About:
Sally Marian Rubin’s viral short film Zoomies comes to Epiphany Center for the Arts for a special screening accompanied by a live performance of its original score led by Susie McCollum.
Already known for its intimacy and emotional honesty, Zoomies takes on new dimensions as music moves from soundtrack to stage. Performed live alongside the film, McCollum’s score deepens the landscape of the film, creating an immersive experience where digital and live art become one. There will be a Q&A with Rubin and McCollum following the performance.
Join us for this unique screening and celebration of independent film, original music, and the power of shared experience.
About Susie McCollum:
Susie McCollum is a singer-songwriter who proudly walks a soulful, indie-folk line. One listen to any of her songs and you’ll hear the confessional power of Joni Mitchell, the lyrical prowess of Janis Ian, and the coy, jazzy-toned spirit of Norah Jones.
New York City-born & Chicago-based, McCollum’s musical 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 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.
So far, 2026 has brought SOLD OUT shows at the Mercury Lounge (NYC) & Epiphany Center for the Arts (Chicago), as well as her first scoring experience for the short film “zoomies” (71K views on Youtube).
In addition to her production credits, which extend into the theater, Susie has also honed her skills as an audio engineer - enabling her to truly inhabit every layer of the creative process. Her latest single “Abigail” is her best work yet.

About:
Luciano's performance takes the audience on a tour of Brazil by presenting a wide variety of Brazilian compositions combined with his own originals. In his Performance Luciano contrasts songs that have rich and complex harmonies and melodies with simple rhythms against songs that have simple harmonies and melodies with very complex rhythms, and the dynamics range from pure solo guitar and voice to the full sound of the rich Brazilian percussion in a fascinating musical way. Luciano released three albums, two of which are original music "Vida De Artista - An Artist's Life" in 2011 and “Sem Palavras – Without Words” in 2015. His 3rd Album is a 'Live Concert" at the prestigious Jazz Showcase. Make no mistake; Luciano has placed his stamp on the Brazilian music scene in Chicago.

About:
Presented by Chicago journalist Natalie Moore and followed by a post-screening conversation.Maria Moraites’ documentary A Nice Place to Live (1974) examines neighborhood roots, property values, urban revitalization, gentrification, and race relations from the perspectives of both well-established and incoming residents of Chicago’s Austin community area. Her observations come amid a rapid demographic turnover propelled by the Federal Housing Authority, real estate interests, mortgage lenders, and insurance companies’ redlining and blockbusting tactics imposed upon the neighborhood through the early 1970s. Moraites says of the film, “It was a labor of love to document how both the lives of White and Black people were impacted by outside interests. This, of course, is not unique to Austin”.
ABOUT THE INSIDE/OUT SERIES
Displacement implies a concept of home. At its best, home is a place where love, belonging and safety comfortably reside.Chicago Film Archives presents Inside/Out: Stories of Origin and Dis/Placement, a series of four extraordinary films made by four Chicago-based women who by nature are adventurous, deeply curious, and brave. They are also mostly unheard of until now. The concept of “displacement” is securely embedded in each of their stories, whether it resides within the communities they film or within their own lived experience. Although each filmmaker offers a narrative distinctly different from the others, individuals’ efforts to survive and adapt to displacement run constant through all of their films.To better understand the effects of displacement, it may be useful to consider the concept of home: What does it mean to “feel at home”? Is “belonging” synonymous with “home”? Is having a sense of “home” essential to the well-being or understanding of self? Does “home” reside in a structure, a person(s), a country or a culture? What might be lost or gained when one is displaced? To explore these concepts and considerations, Alexandra Salomon, Senior Editor with Chicago Public Media, Nissa Rhee, cofounder of Borderless magazine and a seasoned writer, editor and entrepreneur in the field of journalism, and Natalie Moore, a Chicago-based journalist and author of The South Side: A Portrait of Chicago and American Segregation, will facilitate conversations around these four films and how “displacement” and its consequences are woven throughout lives in each story.PROGRAMS IN THIS SERIES

The evening unfolds through meditative sound, live performance, and resinous fragrance woven throughout the space. Together, these elements move the room beyond spectacle, drawing guests into a heightened state of attention.
Reimagining the traditional fashion show, Sacred Threads becomes a living environment where clothing, architecture, sound, light, and ceremony are brought together as one complete experience.

Event Details
Attend the closing reception for The Jade by Laleh Motlagh on Sunday, September 20th, from 3:00-6:00 pm.
The Jade presents recent paintings by Laleh Motlagh, centering on a jade plant brought by her father from her hometown of Tabriz, Iran, in 2012. Over fourteen years of relocation across various Chicago homes and studios, Motlagh has nurtured this plant, developing an intimate, symbiotic bond with it. Since 2022, the jade has transitioned from a personal companion into one of the primary subjects of her visual practice.
Indigenous to South Africa but ubiquitous worldwide, the plant serves as a living metaphor for political displacement and global migration. Motlagh focuses intently on the plant's pot as a site of dual identity: it is both a protective shelter and a rigid constraint. Confined within this human-made structure, the jade adaptation mirrors the endurance of Iranian women navigating systemic restriction and control. Through daily and repetitive observation, The Jade maps the deep intimacy between human and botanical life, offering a quiet meditation on uprooting, survival, and the persistent will to grow within boundaries.

Event Details
Attend the closing reception for Dog Kicking in its Sleep by Ethan Shay Cowell on Sunday, September 20th from 3:00-6:00pm.
Dog Kicking in its Sleep is the first solo exhibition from Chicago based artist Ethan Shay-Cowell. His work combines observation with surrealist invention and symbolism to create dark, dream-like spaces that bridge the physical world with the ever-present allegory unfolding beneath it.
These works created between 2022 and 2026 were inspired by the artist's time spent living and studying in Chicago, as well as the increasing volatility of the global political theatre. The paintings are a response to uncertainty and conflict, both within and outside of the self, searching our stories and symbols for meaning that withstand this volatility. His practice personifies time and space as a parent and teacher in a way that blurs the line between art making and theistic reflection, seeking an intimacy that is only possible through confrontation.
The exhibition aims to create a moment in which the artist's works can together express a portrait of human nature in its juxtaposing elements as to be faithful to its complexity.

Event Details
Attend the closing reception for Medley by LATITUDE on Sunday, September 20th from 3:00-6:00pm.
The following work on these walls is tied together by its construction rather than its completed form. What joins the work is not a shared theme in representation and style but a means of making, composed of statements that potentially have nothing in common at all - which is exactly the space LATITUDE was made to support.
This exhibition is a net cast into the vast field of individuals that together make up LATITUDE Chicago’s diverse community - some who do it themselves, some who have the team do it for them, some who have donated their time, and some who have donated their resources and connections. Artists that work in painting, photography, collage, analog or digital process .. artists whose practices are built on personal joy or political justice.
Regardless of the “why”, this collection is born from a mission that holds the door open and welcomes a type of multiplicity that can be difficult to access otherwise. A thread spun from the shared belief that access and education around photographic “Fine Art” production should come without barriers.
curated by Keanna Boyko, Deputy Director of LATITUDE Chicago

Event Details
Attend the closing reception for Means of Production by LMRM on Sunday, September 20th from 3:00-6:00pm.
How should wealth be distributed, power structured, and labor organized when the focus is the shared experience of creating and consuming art?
If we could deepen our own practices as a consequence of supporting another’s would that change how we approach collaboration?
We can confront scarcity through generosity along novel dimensions: a loom is dressed and experimentation follows, a floating canvas with its incremental and iterative decorations across individuals form a chain; trust is essential for the call and response necessary for a community to thrive.
Fibers under tension, knowledge honed and shared, yield something coherent eventually.

About:
You’ve never experienced Epiphany Hall quite like this before.
At the intersection of music and well-being is EQUINOX, an immersive sound healing experience marking the Autumn Equinox and inviting you beyond the traditional concert format into a space of deep restoration and renewal. Created and performed by renowned singer and sound healing artist Davin Youngs, EQUINOX is a reimagined “sound bath” that honors seasonal transition through sound, stillness, and transformation.
Using improvisational singing, live looping, crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, and other overtone-rich instruments, Davin builds an evolving sonic landscape in real time. Layer upon layer of sound unfolds, guiding listeners inward and creating space for reflection, release, and recalibration. What sets EQUINOX apart is the subtle integration of electronic beats, seamlessly woven into the organic textures of the voice, mirroring the rhythms and complexity of the inner world.
This is an experience designed to leave you grounded, refreshed, and deeply renewed.
Please note: Yoga mats and blankets will not be provided. Guests are encouraged to bring their own mats, blankets, pillows, eye masks, and anything else that will support comfort and relaxation. Wear comfortable clothing and plan to fully settle in.
More About Davin Youngs
Singer and sound healing artist Davin Youngs has been described as a “true musical innovator” and a “magician of the soul,” known for his ability to harness voice and sound as tools for transformation. His immersive sound experience, The RESET, is a distinctive take on the modern sound bath, blending improvisational singing, looping technology, sound healing instruments, and electronic elements to create a powerful container for restoration and discovery.
Davin has brought his work to iconic spaces including The Kennedy Center Concert Hall, Chicago Orchestra Hall, Finney Chapel at Oberlin Conservatory of Music, and the rooftop of Ace Hotel.

About:
Presented by journalist Alexandra Salomon and followed by a post-screening conversation with director Susan Stechnij.Mi Raza: Portrait of a Family is a documentary film about a working class Mexican American family dealing with the stresses of maintaining their cultural heritage in the face of the dominant Anglo society. The film follows the daily activities of the multigenerational Navarro family living in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood. Each member of the family responds differently to the pressures of assimilation, revealing a complex family portrait. Mi Raza is an invaluable example of a new style of ethnographic filmmaking: an intimate portrait of working-class domestic life and a historical record of a community in a state of flux due to immigration and political upheaval. Mi Raza was preserved by Chicago Film Archives with support from the National Film Preservation Foundation in 2008.
ABOUT THE INSIDE/OUT SERIES
Displacement implies a concept of home. At its best, home is a place where love, belonging and safety comfortably reside.Chicago Film Archives presents Inside/Out: Stories of Origin and Dis/Placement, a series of four extraordinary films made by four Chicago-based women who by nature are adventurous, deeply curious, and brave. They are also mostly unheard of until now. The concept of “displacement” is securely embedded in each of their stories, whether it resides within the communities they film or within their own lived experience. Although each filmmaker offers a narrative distinctly different from the others, individuals’ efforts to survive and adapt to displacement run constant through all of their films.To better understand the effects of displacement, it may be useful to consider the concept of home: What does it mean to “feel at home”? Is “belonging” synonymous with “home”? Is having a sense of “home” essential to the well-being or understanding of self? Does “home” reside in a structure, a person(s), a country or a culture? What might be lost or gained when one is displaced? To explore these concepts and considerations, Alexandra Salomon, Senior Editor with Chicago Public Media, Nissa Rhee, cofounder of Borderless magazine and a seasoned writer, editor and entrepreneur in the field of journalism, and Natalie Moore, a Chicago-based journalist and author of The South Side: A Portrait of Chicago and American Segregation, will facilitate conversations around these four films and how “displacement” and its consequences are woven throughout lives in each story.PROGRAMS IN THIS SERIES

About EAR:
IDM-indebted duo ear operates as a fifty-fifty collaborative art project. Their collage-like approach to production pairs experimental textures with the sentimentality and specificity of their songwriting.
About Quiet Light:
Quiet Light (AKA Riya Mahesh) is a Texas-based producer, singer, and multi-instrumentalist. Her songs are, in her own words, “dream sequences” — her Lynchian, liminal electropop sounds are both frozen in time and built to withstand its weathering, weaving sharp, sparse songwriting with gossamer strands of ambient, electronic, and folk. Her 2020 self-titled debut EP Quiet Light foregrounded a virtuosic run of independent, self-produced records, including 2023’s Blue Angel Sparkling Silver and Fourth of July, Going Nowhere (2024), and Pure Hearts (2025). Along the way, she’s earned critical acclaim from outlets like The FADER, been co- signed by Iggy Pop, and provided direct support for Cameron Winter, Erika de Casier, Nilufer Yanya, and Chanel Beads on tour. Now, with her mixtape Blue Angel Sparkling Silver 2, her debut release on True Panther (Oklou, Jawnino, Grace Ives) which released April 24th, 2026, she's proved she’s a generational voice that’s here to stay.

About:
Joy Guidry is a bassoonist, versatile improviser, performance artist, and composer of experimental, daring new works that embody a deep love of storytelling; Joy’s music channels her inner child in honor of her ancestors and predecessors.
Joy Guidry’s new album, Five Prayers, is an intuitive convergence of sound, spirit, and radical self-expression. As a deeply respected artist in the experimental and avant-garde music spaces, Guidry continues to push sonic boundaries while remaining deeply connected to Black sonic traditions. Moving away from free-jazz, Five Prayers moves towards an ambient space.
This album is informed by a deep introspective. The resulting work is a manifestation of self-exploration and liberation, resonating with audiences seeking authenticity, vulnerability, and transcendence in music.

Accompanied by a world-class trio, Pacheco delivers a show filled with passion, spontaneity, and musical dialogue. His sensitive and expressive vocals add another dimension to the performance, inviting audiences into an emotional and deeply authentic artistic experience.

The result is an electrifying concert experience that is both deeply rooted and boldly contemporary—an unforgettable celebration of rhythm, artistry, and musical excellence.
About Jorge Luis Pacheco:
Jorge Luis Pacheco is widely regarded as one of the finest pianists and musicians to emerge from Cuba’s new generation of jazz artists. Combining breathtaking virtuosity, explosive energy, and remarkable artistic versatility, he has become a leading force in contemporary Cuban jazz. Beyond his extraordinary abilities as a pianist and composer, Pacheco is also a singer whose sensitive and captivating voice brings an added depth and emotional richness to his performances. His dynamic stage presence, innovative musical vision, and ability to connect with audiences through both his piano playing and singing have earned him international acclaim, establishing him as one of the most compelling voices in jazz today.
Winner of two awards at the 2014 Montreux Jazz Piano Solo Competition, presided over by Quincy Jones, Pacheco blends Afro-Cuban rhythms, modern jazz, classical music, and contemporary soul into a singular, expressive voice.
A native of Havana, Cuba, Pacheco sold out his solo piano debut at Lincoln Center in 2015 and has since performed at iconic venues including the Apollo Theater, Kennedy Center, Dizzy’s Jazz at Lincoln Center, Ronnie Scott ‘s in London, Blue Note, Napa and the Berlin Philharmonic. His global festival appearances span SFJazz, Blue Note Jazz Festival, Monterrey Jazz Festival, New Orleans Jazz Fest, San Jose Jazz Festival, Sziget Festival (Hungary), JazzKaar (Estonia), and the Red Sea Jazz Festival (Israel); among many others.
Pacheco’s collaborations include Wynton Marsalis and the JLCO, Arturo O’Farrill, Lenny White, Dave Weckl, Richie Goods, Michael League and Snarky Puppy, saxophonist Bill Evans, and Cuban legends such as Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Leo Brouwer, Pablo Milanés, and members of the Buena Vista Social Club. He has also taught and performed at Berklee College of Music. As a composer, Pacheco premiered The Love Symphony—a jazz quartet and symphonic orchestra fusion at Cuba’s National Theater in 2018.
He holds a master’s degree in composition from Instituto Superior de Arte de La Habana and has won multiple awards, including Cuba’s JoJazz Festival and the “Made in New York” Jazz Competition for his original piece “Con El Pache Me Voy.”
With more than seven albums to his credit—including The Lockdown Album, Con El Pache Me Voy, and his vocal debut Mi Otro Yo—Pacheco continues to push into new musical territory. His latest release, Live from Havana (January 2026), was recorded during the 2025 Havana Jazz Festival with an all‑star Cuban ensemble. His upcoming studio album, set for release in Spring 2027, further expands his signature fusion of jazz traditions, showcasing a sound that is unmistakably his own.

About Frost Children:
For Angel and Lulu Prost, the sibling duo behind Frost Children, home has always sounded like dance music. The St. Louis-born musicians grew up steeped in the sleek catharsis of golden-age EDM: huddling over YouTube videos of 2010s festival staples like Zedd, Skrillex, and Krewella; watching rapt as Virtual Riot commanded a headline show at their neighborhood outdoor amphitheater; digging through their eldest brother’s dubstep collection. The duo’s third album SISTER, out September 12th via True Panther/Dirty Hit, is an exhilarating return to those first sounds that moved them, echoing with the reverence and refinement of two formidable artists crafting exactly what they want to hear. But it’s also a striking portrait of Frost Children’s singular creative partnership: as bandmates, as roommates, as symbiotic savants practicing the art of what Angel calls “twin telepathy.” Boldly revitalizing and revolutionizing a too-often- devalued subgenre, Frost Children have delivered their most forthright and full-bodied identity statement yet. As Lulu puts it: "This is so confidently what we love, and what we breathe.”
Melding the sensitivity and songcraft of Hearth Room with the propulsive power of SPEED RUN, SISTER puts forward an arrestingly personal vision for modern dance music that transcends nostalgia and trend-chasing. Delicately weaving strains of emo, electro, and pure pop, Frost Children explore close-to-home themes of co-dependence, consistency, and change, exemplified by the roaring refrain on lead single “CONTROL”: “Tell me the way to live / I’m falling apart.” For all the uncertainty of thrilling anthems, SISTER pulses with the electric energy of two artists confidently reveling in their element.
About Ninajirachi:
Ninajirachi is raising the flag for a new generation of Australian artists on the international stage. From festival appearances at Coachella, Lollapalooza, Laneway, and Spilt Milk to sold-out headline shows on both sides of the Pacific, she has quickly become one of electronic music’s most electrifying new voices. With a sound and style “simultaneously garnering respect from the experimental underground and the mainstream” (Rolling Stone), Nina has been tapped by Nike, Sega, and even Ableton, who selected her to produce the official demo project for Ableton Live.
Nina’s evolution is best captured in the transformation of her childhood inspirations into career allies. Artists such as Charli XCX, Porter Robinson, and Cashmere Cat have gone from influences to touring partners, while Skrillex and SOPHIE have become recurring points of comparison - with Billboard declaring Ninajirachi “the female equivalent of Scary Monsters-era Skrillex.”
Raised on Australia’s Central Coast, Nina remains rooted in curiosity and experimentalism, continually spotlighting emerging artists from the furthest corners of the internet through her DJ sets, collaborations, and her annual headline event, Dark Crystal. Launched in 2022, Dark Crystal is Nina’s dream festival, brought to life - a showcase for unique and developing artists across diverse genres and niches. With the 2025 edition selling out months in advance, Dark Crystal has become a touchstone of Australia’s electronic underground community
About Umru:
Through wide-reaching collaborations with the likes of Laura Les, Tommy Cash, Empress Of & Caroline Polachek, a producer-staple sample pack series, and a kinetic, CDJ-defying mixing style that has launched him into a constant international DJ circuit, his strength in joining earworm songwriting with distorted sonic maximalism has become a defining influence on the cutting edge between underground and popular music. In 2025, he released his first EP on Scottish label LUCKYME®, a single with underscores, and production and remixes for names like Danny Brown, Cortisa Star, and Ninajirachi.

About:
Beaph is a Chicago-based duo comprised of Vocalist Bunga (Bea) Fuadin and guitarist Stephen Ryan. Bunga’s RnB background meets Stephen’s jazz-folk guitar playing to create a soft blend for their music. They created Beaph, a combination of both Stephen’s name and Bunga’s nickname “Bea”, while attending Columbia College Chicago in 2023. After being assigned to be in a guitar/vocal duo together, they’ve continued to write, record, and perform their original songs. Although they often play as a duo, they sometimes appear with a band featuring bassist Dante Nottoli, drummer Will Penne, and pianist Miles Pretel.
You can find them around the Chicago area performing their originals as well as their arrangements of various covers ranging from genres such as classic soul, jazz, rnb, pop, and country. They have also released an album named “Beaph and Friends: Live”, a live album from their joint senior recitals which includes features from their friends and paints the picture of their musical journeys as well as their love for one another.

About Rogue Fashion Show:
Rogue is the third official fashion experience presented by Raeted R Creative Co., building on the foundation of Planet R and the evolution of Retrograde. This next chapter moves beyond reflection and into rebellion. Challenging convention, disrupting norms, and redefining the boundaries of fashion as both art and resistance. Rooted in punk energy, digital futurism, and unapologetic individuality, Rogue invites attendees into a space where identity is self-defined, and creativity exists without permission.
Curated by Raven Smith, Founder of Raeted R Creative Co. and the community-driven brand Straight From The Go, the show reflects her continued commitment to storytelling, cultural impact, and creating platforms that center emerging voices. As a multidisciplinary creative, Raven uses each experience to build immersive environments where fashion becomes a language. One that speaks to freedom, transformation, and the power of going against the grain.
More than a runway show, Rogue is a statement. It is a curated moment that brings together designers, artists, and creatives who exist outside of traditional systems. Those who challenge expectations and create from a place of authenticity and disruption. Through bold design, immersive energy, and a fearless approach to expression, Rogue captures fashion in its most unfiltered form: raw, evolving, and entirely its own.

About:
Afro Dead is a musical collective formed in 2022 by Aaron Feder to reimagine the music of the Grateful Dead in Afro-Pop styles, such as soukous, Afrobeat, high-life, reggae and more. He has been able to use his experience as founder and band leader of Alma Afrobeat Ensemble (four albums, four US tours) and co-founder of the record label Slow Walk Music (home to African music made in Spain) resulting in a Summer 2024 tour of the US and Canada, and a Fall 2024 tour of Spain.
For 2026 the band will feature the amazing singer London Kay, most known for touring with Heart and the internationally touring Grateful Dead act Terrapin Flyer.
Aaron Feder has been a lifelong participant in the Grateful Dead’s music scene, having played and recorded with Grammy award winners Peter Rowan and Eric Krasno, as well as members of Phil Lesh and Friends, Greensky Bluegrass, Leftover Salmon, Everyone Orchestra and much more. Aaron’s varied musical experiences has helped create a vibrant, one-of-a-kind musical project, mixing classic Americana compositions with danceable African grooves and a healthy dose of improvisation.
The band’s version of Dark Star was featured on the compilation “The Music Plays the Band” alongside Dark Star Orchestra, Oteil Burbridge, ALO and many more.
Josh Olken (Terrapin Flyer) who has recently played with Al Dimeola and Derek Trucks, will be joining Afro Dead for this special show. Aaron and Josh have played many shows together, and bring an even more special flavor to this concert, combining their two unique interpretations of Jerry Garcia's six string legacy into a version of the Dead's songs you never expected!

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 Jade Maze:
Jade Maze mixes soul, jazz, blues, and pop into one big heartfelt voice. She started out with soul and jazz bands on the West Coast, toured with her original band on the East Coast, and made Chicago her home in the mid-90s, where she foraged her way onto the blues and jazz scenes. She loves the intimacy of duo work as well, especially with guitar, bass, or piano.
Jade also happens to be an award-winning author. Her debut memoir, Walk Until Sunrise, took a first-place world literary prize (Rome), and the follow-up memoir entitled Mercy’s View: Blackout won a 2025 Best Book Pinnacle Achievement Award. The memoirs chronicle her teenage runaway experience, her reentry into society, and the beginning stages of her singing career. To offset the intensity of that work, Jade writes short stories where at least one of the story characters is a singer (Music Notes: Tales from an American Singer).
About Larry Brown Jr.:
Larry Brown Jr. is a Kennedy Center Jazz Ahead alumnus and has toured nationally and internationally as a composer/arranger as well as a bandleader. Brown co-leads the acclaimed Chicago Soul Jazz Collective. He has released two records of original compositions (There Can Only Be One; The Music & The Moment). His playing and charisma also landed him a role in the hit television series EMPIRE where he played recording artist Snoop Dogg’s lead guitar player. Brown has performed at some of the country’s greatest jazz festivals and venues, including the St. Louis Jazz Festival, the Clark Terry Jazz Festival, the JVC Jazz Festival (New York), Lima Jazz Festival (South America), as well as Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola. Additionally, he has performed with Hamiet Bluiett, Louie Bellson, Lew Soloff, Benny Golson, and Curtis Fuller.

About:
Sally Marian Rubin’s viral short film Zoomies comes to Epiphany Center for the Arts for a special screening accompanied by a live performance of its original score led by Susie McCollum.
Already known for its intimacy and emotional honesty, Zoomies takes on new dimensions as music moves from soundtrack to stage. Performed live alongside the film, McCollum’s score deepens the landscape of the film, creating an immersive experience where digital and live art become one. There will be a Q&A with Rubin and McCollum following the performance.
Join us for this unique screening and celebration of independent film, original music, and the power of shared experience.
About Susie McCollum:
Susie McCollum is a singer-songwriter who proudly walks a soulful, indie-folk line. One listen to any of her songs and you’ll hear the confessional power of Joni Mitchell, the lyrical prowess of Janis Ian, and the coy, jazzy-toned spirit of Norah Jones.
New York City-born & Chicago-based, McCollum’s musical 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 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.
So far, 2026 has brought SOLD OUT shows at the Mercury Lounge (NYC) & Epiphany Center for the Arts (Chicago), as well as her first scoring experience for the short film “zoomies” (71K views on Youtube).
In addition to her production credits, which extend into the theater, Susie has also honed her skills as an audio engineer - enabling her to truly inhabit every layer of the creative process. Her latest single “Abigail” is her best work yet.
