From the Ryukyu Islands (more commonly known as Okinawa) comes the dynamic artform of eisa (pronounced "ace-ah")  that combines singing, drumming and dancing. With dynamic energy and style, the Bay Area's only queer women of color and trans friendly eisa drumming group - RyuQ Murasaki Daiko perform together to celebrate pride, joy and the human spirit. Come join us as we turn, jump, lunge, bang on drums and sing all at the same time! Find them on Facebook or email them at RyuQMD@gmail.com.

Angela Chase is not a bunch of scrawny twenty-year olds from Brooklyn; Angela Chase is an all-girl three piece from San Francisco playing songs influenced by the Breeders, Fugazi, Hum and the Pixies. Another way to describe Angela Chase is to say that three girls in their twenties decided to name their band after a fifteen-year-old girl from the nineties and play music for the parts of their hearts that are still fifteen.
