ABOUT THE ARTISTS

DOOMSQUAD

All hail the third album from Toronto’s ardent, art-dance sibling trio DOOMSQUAD. Released on Bella Union and Royal Mountain Records on May 10 2019, Let Yourself Be Seen is the most assertive, ambitious, groove sodden declaration of intent yet from Trevor, Jaclyn and Allie Blumas: the sound of dancefloor believers and thinkers firing on all personal and political fronts, at a time when we need it most.

Post ghostship fire, post 4chan trolling of DIY venues, and currently in the middle of a crisis of rapid gentrification, we find ourselves as artists living in cities that are closing doors to us. Cutting off the accessibility to resources and cultural centres, artist DIY networks help keep artistic scenes thriving in impossible situations, and we look to one another for shared skills, resources, support etc.

BACKXWASH is a trans rapper(they/them/she/her) from Zambia whose music provides an eccentric and aggressive social commentary. Topics include blackness and queerness, as she strives to bring an intersectional perspective. Inspired by Missy Elliot and Redman, BACKXWASH is known for their complex lyricism on weird instrumentals.
