About Our Duos ✨️

✨️ C Mikhail (they/them) is an Assyrian-German-American musician and audio engineer born and raised in Chicago. They specialize in the Arab music tradition of maqam and are a coveted bassist in ensembles across the city from local bands such as Oyeme to international musical acts like the Chicago Immigrant Orchestra.

✨️ Caroline Jesalva is a Chicago-based musician, improviser, multidisciplinary artist, and curator. Her practice centers contemporary, improvised and experimental music in composition and performance. Her music continually concerns the experimentation and intermingling of violin and vox.

✨️ Chad Kouri is a Chicago-based working artist, musician, and storyteller interested in the healing powers of color, sound, and abstraction. His mixed-race identity is mirrored by his multidisciplinary studio practice with interests focusing broadly on visual communication, improvisation, radical joy, social justice and community empowerment.

✨️ Izaki Metropoulos is a multi-instrumentalist, trained traditional and classical vocalist, and specialist in Greek folk music with more than two decades of performance experience. His work centers on the musical traditions of the Greek islands, particularly the Cyclades, Dodecanese, Aegean, and Ionian Islands, while also drawing from rebetiko, laïko, and the wider folk traditions of Greece and Asia Minor.

Immerse yourself in diasporic sounds from across the globe! 🔗✨️
