"Street poetry, music on the sidelines, counter culture, human adventures. These are the ingredients that Schvédranne has been using for about ten years to immerse his listeners in a universe of emotions without filters or borders. From big kick techno to vaporous blues through trip hop and its down tempo atmospheres, Antoine offers us a journey into the depths of the work of the poets with whom he collaborates. Accompanied by artists who share his attraction for the depths to be cleared, he makes us resonate with the power of words and taste the mesmerizing comfort they carry with them."
"Devona, a proud Filipino-American, is a multi-talented artist and creative entrepreneur based in Houston, TX. As the creative force behind Art By Devona, she has gained a reputation for creating flawlessly crafted artworks, murals, and prints that are nothing short of breathtaking. With a masterful use of colors and intricate details, she specializes in portraiture with a style that blends abstract and realism, resulting in pieces that radiate power, vulnerability, and strength. Her artworks and murals can be found in homes and businesses across the world."
