VAMP VOCALS PRESENTS

THE FIRE IN HER EYES

NOVEMBER 23 & 24 | KMFA'S DRAYLEN MASON MUSIC STUDIO

Join us this November for The Fire in Her Eyes

The Fire in Her Eyes highlights the hidden inner lives of women as we contend with patriarchal society’s impact on our relationships, careers, personal ambitions and basic connections with men. The centerpiece of the program is Invisible Women commissioned from composer Russell Podgorsek, a work of allyship based on 6+ hours of interviews about our lives. The second half of the program will be cabaret-style solos accompanied by pianist Carla McElhaney.

In addition to the concert, VAMP is inviting women-owned businesses and nonprofits that support women in the Austin area to set up a market in the lobby to be seen and supported by our audience.

Conceived pre-pandemic and born in March 2020, VAMP Vocals seeks to create unconventional musical experiences that embrace vulnerability and emotional intensity and provide audiences with a unique ​women-led perspective and a renewed sense of connection to their community, themselves, and the world.

Mary Elizabeth Ashton, soprano, Adrienne Pedrotti-Bingamon, soprano, Katrina Saporsantos, soprano, Page Stephens, mezzo soprano, and Laura Mercado-Wright, mezzo soprano.
