We’re thrilled to kick off July with the first of two shows featuring touring artists!  This one brings together musicians from across our fellow Midwest cities. Lex Leto (Iowa City) will perform a set of electronic slumber pop followed by Jane Marie Rogers (Detroit) whose work inhabits betweennesses: finding spaces between safety and pain, stillness and motion, gentleness and intensity.  

After the solo sets we’ll have the classic open jam for all femme/trans/nonbinary artists. Bring an instrument, your body, your voice, and join in! Emailpleiades@elasticarts.orgto reserve a spot, or show up at the beginning of the night for sign-up.

Free for Open Jammers

Artist Bios

Jane Marie Rogers is a multi-instrumentalist based in Detroit, MI dedicated to music that inhabits betweennesses: finding spaces between safety and pain, stillness and motion, gentleness and intensity, insularity and intimacy and change. This can take many different forms—anything from chamber pop to harsh noise to glacial piano structures—but always shares a grounding in the patient, the cathartic, and the kind. Alongside her solo projects, she also makes music with the free improv/performance art troupe BRIGE, indie-rock heartthrobs Pia the Band and Color By Letter, and experimental folk musician Annick Odom.

Lex Leto (they/them) is a multi-instrumentalist, improviser, and collaborator from Iowa City who makes experimental chamber music and electronic slumber pop.
