Performers:
The Pleiades House Band
Ear Taxi Festival and Pleiades join forces to present a specially curated house band for the event, followed by our signature Pleiades Jam Session. The jam is open to all participants, with advance sign-up available to ensure space and avoid exceeding capacity.
Pleiades is a performance series dedicated to celebrating femme, trans and nonbinary artists. Pleiades is driven by a dual mission: to amplify the visibility of femme, trans, and nonbinary performers, and to foster meaningful connections among improvisers from diverse backgrounds. The series cultivates a welcoming, energized space for artistic exploration, spontaneous collaboration, and community-building.
The Pleiades Jam:
The Pleiades Improv Jam is a space for open, unstructured musical exploration. Everything is completely free improvised, meaning no pre-written music - just spontaneous, creative expression. It’s a chance to interact with new people and collaborate in an open and supportive environment.
During the session, we break into small groups, and each group plays for around 10 minutes, offering a unique opportunity to listen, experiment, and respond to each other’s ideas in real-time. No experience with improvisation is required—just bring your instrument, your voice, or your curiosity!
