Kayla Milmine/Geordie Haley/Peter Morin - [last section]

For the past three years, the Women From Space Festival has been an excellent encapsulation of its moment. Coming on the cusp of the First Big Lockdown, the 2020 Festival is remembered by many as the last event of the beforetimes, while last year's "hologram edition" was an elegant solution to the flatness of livestreams. And now, this year's Festival had to bear all the relief and angst of "returning to live" at this uncertain mid-point of the pandemic. Presented with joy and community spirit over four nights, the Festival was a chance to run into seldom-seen familiar faces and to hear a dizzying variety of sounds.

Another refraction of the Understory series, this set brought togther three musicians who had first encountered eacher other virtually for some realtime/in the flesh explorations, mixing festival co-founder's Kayla Milmine soprano sax with guitarist Geordie Haley and vovalist/percussionist Peter Morin.
