The following description comes from the event organizer.

Day Soul Exquisite is a 6-piece band from Seattle, WA. Fronted by singer Francesca Eluhu, the QTBIPOC-led band is a mix of neo-soul, psychedelic r&b, and jazz.

Drawing inspiration from the London Jazz scene and Afro-caribbean influences, Day Soul Exquisite’s music brings raucous energy, sweet queer love songs, and defiant responses to oppression. The ensemble’s rhythm section features two percussionists creating intricate rhythms to support the band’s powerful presence.

Formed during the pandemic, Day Soul Exquisite quickly reached the stages of Capitol Hill Block Party, Barboza, The Sunset Tavern, So Dreamy Festival and more. The unique band is completed by multi-instrumentalists Zora Seboulisa (bass), Josh Pehrson (drums), Lillian Minke Tahar (keys), Thomas Arndt (percussion) and Xiomara Mills (alto sax).

Nestled in the Aburrá Valley of the Andes Mountains in Colombia lies Medellín, city of eternal spring. Named after the birthplace of band leader Jenn Taranto (vocals/guitar/keyboard), Seattle’s Medejin creates lush, ethereal dreamwave evoking a feeling of restless nostalgia. Her soaring and expressive vocals, often soaked in delay, weave in and out of drifting guitar melodies and punchy rhythms. Featuring Rebecca Gutterman (guitar), Ramsey Troxel (bass) and Matthew Cooke (backing vocals/drums), they’ve sculpted a sound of euphoria with a disarming intimacy that tends to leave listeners quietly, beautifully, devastated.
