Bios:
Shireen Amini (masc non-binary person - in transition but still using - she/her) is a queer Puerto Rican-Iranian American, earth-loving song creator, rhythm maker, and community facilitator based on unceded Multnomah, Wasco, Cowlitz, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Chinook, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, and Grande Ronde territory, aka Portland, Oregon. She believes strongly in music’s power to propel cultural revolution and blends pop, rock, hip hop, latin, and roots sensibilities with socially-conscious themes as a singer-songwriter and creates modern medicine music for community singing. As a community songleader, she holds transformational space, leading joyful, groove-based songs, evoking tenderness, and often engaging her participants in the rhythm and ceremony of it all. She also teaches drumming, facilitates grief ritual, and hosts a Portland-based queer and poc-led song circle series called Sing People Sing! as part of her community-based music empowerment project, Shireen Amini Music Medicine.
Adhamh Roland, M. Div. (he/him) is a playful mystic and ir/reverent song-weaver packaged in a Euro-American, queer, transgender, able (for now) human body. His songs, life, and vocation as a hospital chaplain orient around joy, connection, suffering, freedom from suffering, and intimacy with Life and Death, and are deeply informed by Insight Buddhist practice and Earth-based wisdom. His tunes have been described as “Frighteningly clever and disarmingly heartfelt folk songs”.
