Wynne Greenwood (Tracy + The Plastics) – Seattle, Washington

Wynne Greenwood is a video artist and song-maker who also often brings those things together with objects, installation, and performance. Her practice grows from making dialogues with versions of self and the worlds those versions live in/are of. It’s a practice of this time, built from talking back to the TV, now engaging those muscles to practice new culture. 

From 1999 – 2006, Greenwood created and performed the multimedia art-band Tracy + the Plastics. Tracy + the Plastics blurred the boundaries between the contemporary art and music worlds, crossing venues and contexts from house shows to art institutions.Greenwood took the form of all three band members, live on stage and in prerecorded video projections. She sang live as Tracy while interacting with the other band members (Greenwood as Cola, drums, and Nikki, keyboards) on the video screen behind her. Tracy + the Plastics ended in 2006.

Cruisin Records reissued the entire Tracy + the Plastics discography for the 20th anniversary of their first record “Muscler’s Guide to Videonics”.

Wynne has a new album in the works, Horizon.

Gina Young – Los Angeles, California

Gina Young (she/they) is an award-winning writer, director, songwriter and performer whose work blurs genres and forms. Her plays, musicals, videos, and curated events have been presented everywhere from The Hammer Museum and REDCAT to punk clubs and gay bars across the US and Europe.

​Interlacing music, movement and text, Gina queers content and form, bringing audiences together for intimate and transcendent experiences. She is the creator of SORORITY, Feminist Acting Class and throws a queer happy hour party in Los Angeles called DIVORCE.
