Tomorrow! We’ll be hosting Worldwide (q***r) Knit in Public Day! Get to know the artists coming to join the International feminist craft-tivity with their accompanying song!
First up: Alys-Jade (they/them) ! A local q***r musician who explores themes of q***r pain and healing through their music. Although they have played music for most of their life, they are just starting to explore solo live performance and are excited to share their art!

“RockyVerse” aka Rocky Lane he/him is a creative entrepreneur, community advocate, and current Small Format doula hailing originally from Austin Texas! Rocky has been releasing music and creative works with collaborators for over 25 years. He writes songs on relationships and community connection. One of his first and only solo performances was at the age of 19, the rest of his career has been focused on compositions for hire and band performances. He has cared for a small loyal audience of patrons and fans through authentic media creation and social impact storytelling. His style is a blend of folk, blues, rock, and southern gospel.

And last but not least on the ukulele: Kim Johnson (she/they) also known as Psych Major! Psych Major is the project of quirky indie folk/pop/rock artist and music therapist, Kim Johnson (she/they). Layering vulnerable lyrics, evocative vocals, and atypical instrumentation, they explore aspects of psychology and existentialism, including the more taboo parts. She does so unapologetically in hope that this will cultivate validation, empathy, and a sense of shared humanity for anyone who happens to be listening. Previously, Kim released a full length album under the name KJ Johnson as well as an EP and series of music videos with experimental folk duo, Goat & Lion.
In short, if Iggy Pop and Mr. Rogers had a baby, it would sound like this.
