BREATHE AT HOME SCHEDULE

Music & Dance Hour

Victor Azcorra // 10 am - 10:20 am CST

I’ve been playing and singing for over 15 years. Performing for about the same time. And I still have to balance nervous excitement whenever I perform. When you project your voice, you are going to be heard. That is both exciting and scary. When your most natural instrument of your voice starts to vibrate your chest, you feel it down to your core. It’s that resonant feeling which I seek, and will continue to seek, as long as I am able.

The Heartstrings Project // 10:20 am - 10:40 am CST

We write about what’s happening within the heart. Indie Folk Tunes with cinematic elements. A family band fronted by Luke Wygodny, Marina Pires & Elias Wygodny. Each song is guided by raw storytelling & rooted in 3 part harmony. It’s our way of letting go & finding what it takes to live with a heart in tune.

 

Emily Stillwell // 10:40 am - 11:00 am CST

Emily is a singer-songwriter and yoga instructor from Atlanta, Georgia. She is a lifetime lover of the history and the spirit of Jazz, Blues, American Folk Music and all that inspires nostalgia.
