Fugitive Waves:  A night of stories and sound with Davia Nelson of The Kitchen Sisters

We’re over the moon that in October we’re going to be joined by Davia Nelson, one half of the multi-award winning San Fransisco based duo, The Kitchen Sisters. With their very own brand of quirky, cinematic, montage radio, the Kitchen sisters are part of America’s radio royality.  Working together for the past 35 years their trademark is warm and intimate storytelling with a playful and eclectic musical edge. Since they started working together in 1979, The Kitchen Sisters have remained at the forefront of creative and technological change. As well as recent forays into live musical audio performance and multimedia audio projects, they are members of the Radiotopia collective, an exciting new experiment that promises to challenge traditional broadcasting, by drawing together the best in creative podcasting to create a financially feasible online audio channel. The Kitchen Sisters are the producers of several  NPR radio series collaborations including Hidden Kitchens, The Hidden World of Girls, Lost & Found Sound, The Making Of… and The Sonic Memorial Project.

We are also personally excited to have Davia join us – not only was she there at our very first event nearly 5 years ago, last year Davia also generously volunteered her time as a mentor for the Sound Bank grant. We’re delighted that this long anticipated event can happen and hope that you can join us for what promises to be a very special In The Dark night.
